Where AI builds the future of finance.
Foundry is Mansa Investments' research and product lab — a cutting-edge environment where developers, fintech builders, and innovators come together to architect the next generation of financial infrastructure.
The global financial system is held together by legacy infrastructure, slow processes, and disconnected tools — and it's costing everyone.
Cross-border payments still take 3–5 business days, rely on SWIFT rails built in the 1970s, and cost businesses billions in unnecessary fees annually.
Banking systems require months of compliance, layers of intermediaries, and outdated UX — making it nearly impossible for startups to build on top of them.
Fintech builders juggle dozens of disconnected APIs, data providers, and compliance tools — with no unified infrastructure layer to build on cohesively.
Foundry is a dedicated AI research and product lab that creates modular, intelligent financial infrastructure — giving developers the tools to ship fintech products at unprecedented speed.
Intelligent systems that learn, adapt, and optimize financial flows in real time — reducing friction and cost at every layer.
End-to-end automation for compliance, payments, and reporting — so teams focus on products, not paperwork.
A growing suite of production-ready fintech products built on Foundry's core infrastructure — from payments to analytics.
A systematic approach to turning financial problems into production-ready AI solutions.
Deep research into real-world financial pain points — from infrastructure bottlenecks to underserved markets and broken workflows.
Rapid prototyping with AI-first tooling — combining large language models, financial APIs, and automation to ship production-grade solutions fast.
Deploy across markets with enterprise-grade infrastructure — built to handle millions of transactions, users, and integrations without breaking.
Every component of Foundry is engineered for performance, reliability, and developer experience.
A multi-model AI core that powers decision making, risk assessment, fraud detection, and financial forecasting — all through a single unified API. Designed for developers who need intelligence built into every layer.
A structured environment for ideating, prototyping, and shipping new fintech products — with shared infrastructure, mentorship, and market access from day one.
Infrastructure for sending, receiving, and settling payments across 150+ countries — in seconds, not days, with near-zero fees.
Live financial data streams, market intelligence, and behavioral analytics — accessible via clean developer APIs with millisecond latency.
