Revolut has connected its independent crypto exchange, Revolut X, to third-party AI assistants. The integration allows users to read markets, monitor accounts and prepare trades with natural language commands.
Summary
- Revolut X users can analyze the markets and prepare for crypto trading by using supported third-party AI assistants.
- All trades require user approval, limiting agents from placing orders without final human verification.
- The launch follows agent trading products from Gemini, Coinbase, Robinhood and other crypto platforms around the world.
Supported tools include Claude, Gemini, OpenClaw and Cursor. Revolut also publishes a universal plugin and command-line interface for other compatible AI platforms through its official Revolut X API repository.
Users can ask the AI assistant to retrieve live market data, update account balances and interpret portfolio performance. They can also create price alerts, check open positions and prepare market or limit orders without returning to the Revolut X interface.
Tools that support simple language applications. For example, a trader can ask an assistant to check how the Bitcoin grid strategy has performed over the past 90 days. The software can return historical results, risk estimates and potential strategic settings.
The Revolut repository includes different tools for validation, market data, account management, trading, monitoring and strategy evaluation. It also explains how users can add plugins to supported plugins without having to build their own integration.
The head of the company’s crypto product, Leonid Bashlykov, said that AI agents provide “quick workflows, intelligent execution, and tight integration” with the tools used by traders.
Users must approve each crypto order
AI assistants do not get full authority to complete trades without a final check. Users are always responsible for reviewing and approving each order before Revolut X ships it for use.
Revolut also cautioned that it does not operate, promote or endorse third-party AI platforms. The company said it will not accept responsibility for losses, missed opportunities or wrong trades caused by the incorrect release of the assistant.
That warning raises questions about how much users should rely on natural language commands for financial decisions. AI systems may misunderstand instructions, use incomplete market data or return inaccurate statistics.
The Revolut X API documentation also advises users to secure the cryptographic keys that authorize real transactions. Authentication is always stored locally, but anyone who gets access to those keys can gain control over the linked account.
Crypto exchanges increase agent trading
Revolut joins a growing list of crypto companies connecting trading accounts to AI agents. These programs go beyond answering questions by allowing assistants to call exchange tools and prepare or execute financial transactions.
As previously reported by crypto.news, Gemini introduces proxy trading using the Model Context Protocol. The system allows compatible AI tools to retrieve order book data, monitor markets and manage trades under user-defined rules.
Meanwhile, Coinbase launched its AI agent platform in June. Its tools allow agents to manage portfolios, place crypto orders and make payments through linked accounts and wallets.
Robinhood and Base have also introduced tools focused on agents. The Base system connects assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and Cursor to wallet operations, while requiring users to approve transactions before execution.
Revolut is expanding its crypto and AI services
Revolut X was launched as a desktop exchange for UK retail customers in May 2024. It later expanded to European markets and added mobile access to eligible users in the UK and European Economic Area.
Crypto services in Europe are operated by Revolut Digital Assets Europe Ltd. The business is authorized under the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets framework.
Revolut is also expanding its internal AI resources. In April, it began outsourcing AIR, its financial assistant, to functions including investment tracking, enrollment management and card management.
However, the Revolut X integration takes a different approach. Instead of limiting customers to Revolut’s own assistant, it allows them to connect external AI tools to exchange tasks.
