Futu Named Strategic Partner for Hong Kong Homgrown AI App "HKChat", Empowering Citizens with Leading Financial Intelligence

Leveraging its deep expertise and proven strength in fintech, Futu has become a key strategic partner of HKChat, Hong Kong's first AI-powered public service application. This close collaboration not only reflects recognition from public sectors in Hong Kong of Futu's credibility, stability, and security, but also marks a significant step in extending Futu's advanced AI capabilities from finance into broader public services.

As digital technology rapidly reshapes daily life, AI is now woven into the everyday experiences of Hong Kong residents. HKChat, backed by Hong Kong SAR Government and operated by HKChat OmniServe Limited, leverages the large language model developed by the Hong Kong Generative AI Research & Development Center (HKGAI). Launched in late November, it quickly soared to #1 on the App Store's free apps chart within just five days, establishing itself as a popular smart assistant for **s.

While general-purpose large language models excel at everyday queries, they often struggle with specialized financial questions. Lacking real-time data and domain-specific reasoning, they frequently deliver outdated, vague, or inaccurate answers - falling short of the precision investors expect.

After a rigorous selection process, Futu was chosen to power HKChat's financial intelligence. By seamlessly integrating its proprietary Futubull AI, Futu brings institutional-grade financial expertise directly to users. Whether citizens ask about market movements, macroeconomic developments, or financial news on HKChat, they now receive prompt and context-aware responses backed by Futu's robust capabilities.

For investors, Futubull AI stands apart with its reliability and depth. Built on Futu's comprehensive, traceable data foundation, it significantly reduces hallucinations, filters out noise, and delivers clear, actionable insights.

As a Hong Kong SFC-licensed technology-driven brokerage with over 13 years of local presence, Futu has consistently leverage its innovation to better serve the community.

Looking ahead, Futu and HKGAI will jointly develop a Cantonese-native financial large language model, enabling deeper understanding of local context and removing language and knowledge barriers for Cantonese-speaking users. Futu believes that, under the long-term vision of Hong Kong SAR government, professional-grade financial intelligence can become a natural part of every resident's daily life - accessible, trustworthy, and truly smart. This partnership is more than a technological milestone; it is our commitment to advancing Hong Kong's AI ecosystem and building a more intelligent future for all.
