POCOSHIFT onboards its first 100 users in under 24 hours.

New York, NY, POCOSHIFT, the AI-managed investment platform, today announced that it onboarded its first 100 customers within the first 24 hours of public launch. Total deposits in that window crossed $84,300, with an average opening deposit of $843, nearly twice the recommended minimum.

"We thought this would take a month," said the POCOSHIFT team in a note to early backers. "Instead, members opened accounts faster than we could write the welcome emails. It's a humbling start and a serious reminder that people are hungry for something that isn't another savings account paying 0.42%."

Of the four AI portfolio managers available on the platform, Claude was the most popular pick (38% of new accounts), followed by Grok (27%), DeepSeek (19%), and Gemini (16%). The waiting list for the next cohort opened the same evening and currently stands at over 4,200 names.
