Improbable invests $2M in Otomato to scale the first portfolio-aware intelligence layer for DeFi

LONDON — Venture builder Improbable has announced a $2 million investment in Otomato, a portfolio-aware decentralized finance (DeFi) intelligence layer. Founded by Dylan Breugne and Clément Hecquet, Otomato provides 24/7 monitoring of users' on-chain positions. The platform is designed to alert users whenever a material change occurs regarding their risk, cost, or financial opportunities.^[1][2]

This funding marks one of the first external investments made under Improbable's updated strategy, which focuses on companies operating at the intersection of artificial intelligence and web3 technologies. This sharpened focus follows the venture builder's successful launch of the Somnia Layer 1 blockchain.^[1][2]

Currently, active DeFi users must manage their positions across multiple protocols and blockchains. This process often requires constantly switching between different dashboards, leaving users vulnerable to missing critical events such as liquidations, rate spikes, and asset depegs. Many users also struggle with the high volume of noise generated by generic alert tools.^[1][2]

Otomato aims to address these issues by providing a more tailored intelligence layer. According to the company, the newly secured $2 million in funding will be used to accelerate product development, expand its multi-chain coverage, and drive user growth as the platform scales beyond its current organic user base of more than 2,000 users.^[1][2]
