Uptiq has received a strategic investment from Curql, a fintech investment fund backed by more than 160 credit unions, as part of its recently closed $25 million Series B financing. This partnership underscores confidence in Uptiq’s specialized AI solutions designed to meet the unique needs of credit unions.
The strategic investment from Curql highlights the growing demand for AI solutions purpose-built for credit unions. Uptiq’s platform provides ready-to-deploy AI applications that integrate directly with legacy core systems, ensuring compliance with financial regulations and maintaining robust security and governance standards.
“Credit unions have been waiting for AI built to their specific use cases,” said Nick Evens, President and CEO of Curql. “Curql credit unions immediately recognized the fact that Uptiq is a platform that is highly versatile and can solve many different problems. Curql's role is connecting founders who understand credit union realities with solutions to their most burning problems. Uptiq is exactly that.”
This collaboration positions Uptiq to expand its reach and deepen its impact across the credit union sector by delivering tangible business value through AI-enhanced processes.
As part of the Series B proceeds, Uptiq will broaden access to Qore, its AI orchestration platform. Qore empowers credit union innovation teams and developers to efficiently create, test, and deploy custom AI-driven workflows tailored to financial services needs.
“Credit unions are looking for practical AI solutions that deliver real business outcomes—not just experimentation,” said Snehal Fulzele, Founder and CEO of Uptiq. “Curql’s strategic investment validates our approach and strengthens our ability to bring production-grade AI applications and Qore’s orchestration platform to credit unions at scale.”
The focus on production readiness and seamless integration helps credit unions modernize operations while preserving member trust and regulatory alignment.
