Portals is a DeFi protocol aggregator that simplifies Web3 by enabling anyone to bundle complex DeFi actions into single, one-click flows. The platform supports bundling of multi-step actions—swapping interest-bearing, liquidity pool, vault, and other assets—in a single click and offers staking to earn yield from over 20,000 supported opportunities. Portals also exposes Web3 data via its Build On Portals API, including liquidity pool and token prices, contract positions, and account balances. The team is led by co‑founders Suhail Gangji (previously co‑founder of Zapper) and Nabi Ozberkman (with DeFi experience from OlympusDAO). Headquartered in Calgary, Canada, the company plans to use the combined $2.5M in seed round and seed extension funding to accelerate product development and expand the team.
