Our Story — Why Tesler Exists
It started with a frustration most people can relate to. Back in 2017, a group of fintech engineers and market analysts sat around a table in London with one shared complaint: financial markets were rigged in favour of those who already had money. Not because of some conspiracy — but simply because the tools, the data, and the algorithms that professional traders used every day were completely out of reach for normal people.
One of the team members had a sister in Mumbai who'd tried to start trading on her own. She spent months reading charts, watching tutorials, taking a paid course. Lost money. Got frustrated. Gave up. And she wasn't alone — millions of people across India, Southeast Asia, and Africa faced the exact same wall.
That conversation became the seed of what is now Tesler. The question wasn't "can we build a better trading bot?" — it was "can we build something that genuinely levels the playing field?" Those are very different questions. The first leads to another tool. The second leads to a platform with a purpose.
💡 Our founding belief: Every person — regardless of their income, background, or trading knowledge — deserves access to the same financial intelligence that institutional traders have used for decades. Tesler is our answer to that belief.
Who We Are
Tesler is a team of over 40 professionals spread across the UK, India, and Eastern Europe. Our core team blends three disciplines that most trading platforms treat as separate: artificial intelligence research, financial market expertise, and human-centred product design.
We deliberately chose not to be a typical fintech startup. Most platforms in this space are built by traders who learned to code — or coders who learned about trading. We built Tesler by bringing both disciplines together from day one, and then added a third layer: genuine empathy for the people who would actually use the product.
That's why Tesler India doesn't feel like a tool built for experts. It was always intended to serve a first-time investor from Lucknow with the same capability it offers an experienced day trader in Hyderabad.

Our Mission & Core Values
Tesler's mission is straightforward: democratise access to intelligent trading for every person who wants it. Not just in the UK or the USA — but in India, Nigeria, Brazil, and every other country where financial markets are equally real but access has historically been deeply unequal.
We measure success not by how many trades our AI places, but by how many lives our platform genuinely improves. That keeps us honest.
Radical Transparency
Every trade the AI makes is logged and visible to you. No hidden logic, no black boxes. You always know what's happening with your money.
Genuine Accessibility
We design every feature for the person who's never traded before — without sacrificing capability for those who have been doing this for years.
Uncompromising Safety
Licensed brokers only. Bank-grade encryption. Strict risk controls. We treat user funds with the same care we'd want someone to treat our own.
Continuous Improvement
Markets evolve. Our AI evolves with them. We run thousands of backtests monthly to ensure the algorithm stays ahead of changing conditions.
Local Understanding
Tesler India isn't a translation job. It's a genuine localisation effort — built with input from Indian users, adapted for Indian market conditions.
People-First Support
Real humans, available 24/7. Not chatbots reading from scripts — actual support staff who understand trading and genuinely want to help you succeed.

Our Commitment to Transparency
We want to be clear about something that many platforms in this space are deliberately vague about: trading always carries risk. The Tesler AI is sophisticated and has a strong track record — but it is not infallible. Markets are unpredictable by nature. Any platform that tells you otherwise is not being honest with you.
What we commit to is this: we will always be upfront about how the technology works, what the realistic expectations are, and what your money is doing at every moment. That's the only kind of company we want to be.
