John Botti is a serial entrepreneur, video game designer, and fintech software engineer, and the founder of several technology companies. He is a graduate of MIT’s Computer Science and Electrical Engineering program, where he studied robotics and artificial intelligence, and was mentored at the MIT Sloan School of Management.
As a paid researcher at the MIT Media Lab for four years, Botti helped pioneer work at the intersection of computation, gaming, natural language processing, creativity, and human experience.
After selling millions of video games worldwide, he refocused his efforts on financial markets—often described as the largest real-time strategy game in the world, where capital allocation and decision quality determine outcomes.
His work now focuses on agentic decision systems for investing, combining market structure, behavioral cycles, and automation. These ideas are explored in his book The Agentic Investor and implemented through the Wall Street Algo framework.
John is a native New Yorker and is fluent in Spanish.
