Founding team

Light Frame was founded in 2024 and is based in Lausanne, Switzerland. Schuyler Weiss and Mathieu Clément previously led Alpian. The founders have direct experience running a regulated Swiss bank.

What the platform does

The platform combines banking and investment capabilities in a cloud-native, API-first system. It includes embedded AI capabilities and a secure interoperability layer. Institutions can modernize selected components or adopt the full solution.
