3 Small-Cap AI Stocks Worth Checking Out
Artificial Intelligence tools have taken the internet by storm since the launch of OpenAI’s AI-powered chatbot ChatGPT in November last year. AI is quickly becoming an essential tool for businesses, as many are using it to analyze data, streamline operations, and optimize their customer experiences, among other things.
The surging demand for AI tools has also benefited some companies. For one, Nvidia, whose chips are essential to creating AI language-generating tools like ChatGPT, has seen its stock skyrocket over the past couple of weeks.
While Nvidia’s incredible surge might be over—or might not—there likely remain opportunities for investors to benefit from the rise of AI. One opportunity presents itself in the form of small-cap AI stocks, which have the potential for significant growth—as well as higher risks—compared to other established companies.
In this article, we will take a closer look at three small-cap stocks in the AI sector that are worth checking out. These stocks have demonstrated strong financials and are well positioned to benefit from the AI boom.
1. Remark Holdings (NASDAQ: MARK)
Remark Holdings is a technology-focused company that primarily operates in the artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain industries. Its products and services include facial and object recognition technology, AI-powered chatbots, blockchain-based financial services, and data analysis tools.
The company is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, and has a strong presence in China, where it conducts much of its business. It also maintains a digital media house, which provides marketing services. The company enjoys exclusive marketing partnerships with some of its clients due to its competitive edge with AI.
Shares of Remark are yet to fully benefit from the AI boom, as they are up only 10.00% YTD. The company’s stock, trading at around $1.21 per share, is down 73.67% over the past year.
Nevertheless, with a market cap of just $18.5 million, 14.3 million outstanding shares, and a public float of just 13.09 million shares, Remark is a micro-cap AI stock worth keeping an eye on.

Conclusion

It should be noted however, that with small-cap stocks, ‘potential’ also means ‘risk’. Be sure to conduct further research into these particular stocks – which are worth keeping an eye on.
