Merso officially launches the world’s first AI-powered lending infrastructure purpose-built for digital assets. Backed by $3 million in seed funding from founders and strategic investors, Merso is introducing a new paradigm in credit: one that is centered not on borrowers, but on the assets themselves.
Founded in August 2023, Merso has spent two years building and training its proprietary AI engine — using billions of on-chain transactions and digital asset behaviors as its foundation. The result is an infrastructure layer that delivers real-time asset-level risk scoring, dynamic loan terms, and full lifecycle automation — with zero friction for users and no exposure for platforms.
“Merso is designed to unlock access and liquidity across digital economies — starting with Web3 gaming and tokenization,” said David Pérez-Iturralde, CEO and Founder of Merso. “We’ve built something both highly technical and commercially proven. The impact is already measurable — and this is just the beginning.”

Momentum at Launch
Merso enters the market with strong traction: over 50 Web3 Game Studios and Publishers — including multiple global top 10 titles — are already whitelisted and preparing to integrate.
Early partners have seen up to 40% higher conversion rates and 60%+ increases in average transaction size on high-ticket digital assets. Merso enables this growth without requiring changes to a platform’s tokenomics, contracts, or compliance posture.
Built to Scale. Designed for Trust.
Merso brings together a world-class team of financial veterans, elite engineers, and Web3 leaders — including executive leadership behind a prior $1B+ exit in the traditional finance sector.
The platform is fully compliant with U.S. and EU standards, and integrates seamlessly into game studios, tokenization platforms, and digital marketplaces — without requiring changes to smart contracts or asset architecture.
