Company profile
researched Aug 2026Coinfeeds is a San Francisco-based company that applies natural language processing and AI to information in the digital asset market. Its original product monitored social media mentions and activity for web3 and NFT projects, using NLP across Twitter, Discord and Telegram to track sentiment, mentions, followers and message volume, and to build a social graph for each coin or NFT project identifying key opinion leaders and the projects investors and influencers discuss or back. The consumer-facing app combined these signals with price and market-cap data, Twitter trend monitoring and breakout-project detection that flags coins showing early momentum signals.
The company also operates a developer API suite under coinfeeds.io/coinfeeds.ai. The News API aggregates articles, blog posts and other content on cryptocurrencies and blockchain, filterable by keyword, category, source or coin, alongside endpoints for coin lists, tweets, Spotify podcasts and YouTube videos mentioning a given token. A Price API returns current USD and BTC prices, market capitalization, 24-hour volume and multi-year price history for hundreds of coins. A streaming Chatbot API provides a conversational assistant with real-time access to crypto prices and news that can explain technical concepts, summarize project developments and answer basic Solidity questions.
As presented on its current website, Coinfeeds positions itself around custom AI agents for crypto and stocks, marketed to crypto exchanges, investment funds and consumer apps, with three product lines: portfolio monitoring for significant events across hundreds of assets, News Feed AI for embedding personalized news content in third-party apps, and NLP-as-a-service custom development connecting fund data with AI tooling. The company also publishes a Substack newsletter, "Crypto Investor Tips | Coinfeeds" (formerly Genesis), covering crypto startup fundraises and scouting.
Founding story
Co-founders Moyi Dang (CEO), previously a data scientist at several firms including Uber and manager of the early Chinese community at Filecoin, and Bhavya Agarwal (CTO), previously a software engineer at Microsoft, Uber and Robinhood where he built machine learning platforms, began by building a news summary bot that became popular in large crypto subreddits. That led them to build a news API subsequently used by large crypto exchanges, and then to apply NLP to the social channels most used by web3 communities β Twitter, Telegram and Discord β to generate community activity and sentiment insights.
Business model
Coinfeeds sells software and data services to businesses and professional users: an app with free and premium tiers, API access for institutional and professional users, and custom development work (NLP-as-a-service) for investment funds. Its current site is demo-request led, indicating enterprise sales of custom AI agents and embedded news products.
Sources indicate a tiered app (free and premium, with sentiment-based insights as a premium feature accessible via free trial), API access for institutional and professional customers, and custom development engagements. Pricing details are not disclosed in the available sources; the site states free access to certain price data.
Traction
At the 2022 seed announcement, Coinfeeds said its news API was already used by some of the largest crypto exchanges, and it had launched its monitoring app with free, premium and API tiers plus partnerships with Near and The Graph. The current site cites unnamed customer testimonials from an investment fund portfolio manager, a digital assets app product manager and a cryptocurrency exchange senior executive, and claims coverage in Forbes, TechCrunch, Fortune and Product Hunt. No user, revenue or usage figures are disclosed.
Latest developments
The current website positions Coinfeeds around custom AI agents for both crypto and stocks, with three offerings β portfolio monitoring across hundreds of assets, News Feed AI for in-app personalized news, and NLP-as-a-service for investment funds β and lists investors including Y Combinator, Coinbase Ventures, Kleiner Perkins, Protocol Labs, Harvard Management Company, Huobi Labs, Third Kind and Amplify Partners. The Substack newsletter continues under the name "Crypto Investor Tips | Coinfeeds."

Market position
Coinfeeds describes its customers as including leading crypto exchanges, investment funds and consumer apps, and states that its news API is used by some of the largest crypto exchanges. Its website lists media mentions in Forbes, TechCrunch, Fortune and Product Hunt. Investors at the seed stage described the company as potential infrastructure for web3 stakeholders. No market share or ranking data is available in the sources.
Coinfeeds emphasizes that crypto communities are "social first" and that community engagement patterns provide auto-curation, allowing its NLP to filter spam and identify what matters in real time, thereby lowering research costs and information asymmetry. Its combination of news, social, podcast, video and price data in a single API set, plus a crypto-specialized streaming chatbot and bespoke NLP development for funds, is presented as its distinguishing offer.
Technology
The core technology is natural language processing applied to crypto information sources: real-time ingestion from thousands of news sources, social channels (Twitter, Discord, Telegram), Spotify podcasts and YouTube; sentiment and activity analysis; social-graph construction per coin or NFT project; and a low-latency streaming conversational AI assistant grounded in real-time price and news data. Data is delivered through REST endpoints authenticated with an API key.
Go-to-market
Self-serve developer signup for API keys via email capture, a live public chatbot demo, a free/premium consumer app, enterprise demo requests for custom AI agents, a company blog, and a Substack newsletter on crypto startup fundraising. The company has also pursued partnerships with crypto protocols (Near, The Graph) to provide community social monitoring.
Crypto exchanges, investment funds and investment research teams, consumer crypto and digital asset apps, developers integrating news, price or chatbot functionality, web3 and NFT projects seeking insight into their own communities, and individual crypto investors and traders.
Geography

History
Coinfeeds joined Y Combinator's accelerator program and announced a $2M seed round on 27 July 2022, launching its web3 community monitoring app at the same time with free, premium and API tiers. Its Substack newsletter, previously named Genesis, was launched around four years before 2026. The company's product positioning has since shifted from social-metrics monitoring toward custom AI agents, portfolio monitoring, embeddable news feeds and NLP consulting for crypto exchanges, funds and consumer apps.
