Pluang launches limited AI trading beta in Indonesia

Pluang, an Indonesia-based multi-asset investment platform, said on August 3 that it launched a limited beta in Indonesia for Agentic Trading.

The feature, which Pluang said was the country’s first, connects ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to a user’s live investment account for portfolio analysis and trade execution.

Each trade still requires user confirmation. Pluang expects broader public access in mid-August 2026.

The tool supports US stocks, Indonesian equities, gold, crypto assets, and crypto futures.

Pluang said each order is subject to user approval and server-side spending limits.

The company also warned that analysis generated by third-party AI assistants may contain errors, delays, omissions, or probabilistic estimates.

Pluang said its group companies are licensed and supervised by Indonesia’s Financial Services Authority (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan or OJK), the Commodities and Futures Trading Regulatory Agency (Bappebti), and/or Bank Indonesia for certain products and services.

The rollout comes as OJK has issued guidance for AI use in banks that sets governance standards around human oversight and vendor controls.

In the US, Robinhood said its comparable service can place trades in a dedicated account and can be configured to operate without confirmation, making Pluang’s setup more restrictive.
