Robinhood Launches AI Agent for Stock Trading and Automated Spending

Odaily Planet Daily News: Robinhood has announced the launch of an AI Agent feature, allowing users to delegate stock trading and credit card spending decisions to an AI agent. According to the introduction, users can connect AI tools such as Anthropic Claude and Cursor to a dedicated Robinhood account, enabling the AI to automatically execute stock trades, manage portfolios, and handle spending tasks, while users retain control through spending limits, approval mechanisms, and real-time notifications.

In payment scenarios, the AI Agent can use the Robinhood Gold virtual credit card to automatically search for deals, book travel, and snag tickets for events. Robinhood stated that the feature currently only supports stock trading, but will later expand to include options and cryptocurrency trading.
