About the company

ntain is building Intelligent Blockchains to bring transparency and efficiency to capital market transactions, with an initial focus on asset-backed investments.


Asset-backed investment volumes—including mortgage-backed securities and other financings—have now reached pre-crisis levels. However, since the financial crisis, the only significant change has been an increased compliance burden, with little progress in transparency or operational efficiency.

Between the issuance and ongoing management of these investments, 4–8 intermediaries are typically involved, leading to annual costs exceeding $30B across securitization and other financing processes.

Intain’s platform brings together lenders, issuers, investors, and other stakeholders such as servicers, trustees, and rating agencies onto a shared-data ecosystem.


By combining artificial intelligence with key features of blockchain, Intain enables:

  • Seamless data flow with zero reconciliation
  • Complete transparency with provenance of assets and data

Diversity & Culture

Committed to diversity in fintech, 50% of Intain’s employees are women. Our teams work in an environment that blends the innovation of a research lab with the agility of a startup.


Leadership & Global Presence:

Founded by a team that includes a leading financial services executive, a securitization banker, an AI researcher, a software entrepreneur, and a blockchain architect, Intain operates from both the US and India.
