TigerGPT AI investment assistant with DeepSeek-R1
Tiger Brokers added DeepSeek-R1 to its TigerGPT investment assistant, which had logged 1.17 million conversations
Problem
Retail brokerage clients needed help reading market data and company news before placing trades.
Approach
Tiger Brokers launched TigerGPT in April 2023 as an AI investment assistant. On 18 February 2025 it said it had integrated the DeepSeek-R1 model for deeper analysis. The upgrade went first to users in mainland China and Singapore at no extra charge. Tiger said the output is reference material and not financial advice.
Results
Takeaway
The broker kept the assistant as a reference tool and put it in front of clients before adding a stronger reasoning model.
