Interactive Brokers launches AI trading integration with Claude platform

Interactive Brokers (NASDAQ: IBKR) announced the integration of artificial intelligence into client portfolios through a direct connection with Claude, an AI platform. The integration allows clients to research stocks, analyze performance, and generate trade instructions while maintaining client approval for all trades.

The service connects through Claude's certified connector marketplace, enabling clients to link their existing IBKR accounts in minutes using their standard login credentials. The integration provides access to more than 170 global markets and draws on the same APIs used by active IBKR users for trading processes.

"Interactive Brokers has used technology for over four decades to help investors make more informed decisions and interact more efficiently with markets," said Milan Galik, Chief Executive Officer of Interactive Brokers. "We believe the next logical step is to allow clients to securely connect AI tools directly to their brokerage accounts."

The system operates with a human-in-the-middle design where AI-generated trade instructions appear in a dedicated tab on the Orders and Trades page across all IBKR platforms. Clients can review these instructions before approving their submission as orders to the marketplace.

At launch, the integration supports equities and ETFs with market and limit orders, with additional asset classes planned within a week. The service includes access to positions, open orders, trade history, margin information, and market data through natural language queries.

Interactive Brokers stated that integrations with ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok are undergoing certification processes and are expected to be available soon. The company indicated there are no additional costs for the service and no need to open separate brokerage accounts.
