Brazilian fintech Aro raised a $2.5M pre-seed round led by ONEVC and 17Sigma, with participation from Norte Ventures, Gilgamesh, and Grão VC.

Aro has built an AI agent that guides users through the credit ecosystem. The platform analyzes behavioral data to assess each user’s financial profile and recommend suitable credit options, focusing on middle and lower-income segments.

Aro will use the funds to hire talent, improve its technology, and expand its credit operations. The company also plans to develop proprietary datasets to strengthen its credit models.

Founded in August 2024 by Pedro Milanez, Nubank’s first employee and cofounder of proptech Lastro, and Yuri Mannes, former VP of innovation at BR Media Group, Aro has attracted more than 100,000 users and facilitated over $400k in loans.
