A-typical Ventures has invested in Metric, a fintech startup based in Abu Dhabi. Metric uses AI technology to give small and medium-sized businesses real-time financial insights that help them manage and grow their business.
The funding round also included support from 500 Global, Hub71, i2i Ventures, Plus VC, Epic Angels, Oqal Angels, Accelerate Prosperity, and several other angel investors from the region.
Metric’s main product is Max, known as the world’s first Chief Financial AI. It works like a conversational “business co-pilot,” giving users easy-to-understand advice by analyzing their financial data.
Built on USD 4.2 billion worth of unique transactional data, Max helps business owners spot spending patterns, predict future performance, and discover new growth opportunities.
Metric was founded in 2022 by Meenah Tariq, Omar Parvez Khan, and Dr. Habiba (CTO). The platform is available in English and Arabic and is already used by more than 130,000 businesses in 190 countries.
Metric also has an AI-powered marketplace that connects businesses to financial services, including financing options.
“Metric is solving one of the most urgent challenges for SMEs: turning complex financial data into clear, actionable insights,” said Alina Truhina, Managing Partner at A-typical Ventures.
“Their technology doesn’t just help businesses understand their numbers—it helps them accelerate their business growth.” Aly El Shalakany, Venture Partner at A-typical Ventures, said, “The funding will accelerate product development, broaden adoption of Max, and scale pilots offering integrated financing and banking services to small business owners across the GCC and beyond.”
