If you are after the most undervalued AI penny stocks to buy in April, you have come to the right place. This article will explore several small-cap companies working on cutting-edge artificial intelligence technologies that could see explosive growth as AI continues its rapid advancement.
AI has gone mainstream, with large language models like ChatGPT capturing the public’s imagination. Some smaller, under-the-radar companies are also making significant strides in the AI space. I feel that due to their tiny valuations and market caps, they could one day become long-term winners.
While penny stocks are highly speculative and risky investments, they can also provide outsized returns if a company’s technology and products gain traction. Specifically in the AI space, even small breakthroughs or partnerships could send share prices soaring for these thinly traded stocks.
So, here are the most undervalued AI penny stocks to buy in April. Don’t miss out on these great options.
BigBear.ai (BBAI)

BigBear.ai (NYSE:BBAI) applies machine learning and AI in data analytics, offering significant growth potential.
In 2023, BBAI announced significant strategic developments, including the successful acquisition of Pangiam. The acquisition aligns with BBAI’s goal to create a comprehensive Vision AI portfolio.
Financially, BBAI reported a net loss of $21.3 million in Q4 2023 but also marked its second consecutive quarter of positive adjusted EBITDA at $3.7 million. Revenue for Q4 2023 slightly increased to $40.6 million from $40.4 million in Q4 2022.
Looking ahead, things are also looking accretive for BBAI investors, with a revenue outlook for 2024 set between $195 million and $215 million.
I don’t think investors can go wrong with considering BBAI stock to add to their AI penny stock portfolio for the above reasons. It’s also cheap, trading at just 1.52 times forward sales, making it an undervalued option.
Bullfrog AI Holdings (BFRG)

Bullfrog AI Holdings (NASDAQ:BFRG) intersects AI with psychiatric treatment, aiming to change mental healthcare through technology. BFRG is pre-IPO, but at around $3 per share, it could be an undervalued AI pick for investors to consider.
The company announced a $5.7 million public offering on February 1, with plans to use the proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes.?
Its main line of business is to use AI to analyze gene expression data. These include the identification of biological subtypes within disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and major depressive disorder, offering new perspectives on personalized treatment strategies.
More broadly, the market is shifting away from cookie-cutter solutions in treatment and healthcare and more toward more personalized treatments. The aim is to reduce complications and adverse side effects. By some estimates, the personalized medicine market could be worth around $1 trillion by 2030. That makes BFRG undervalued when one considers its total addressable market.
Guardforce AI (NASDAQ:GFAI) leverages AI technology across a wide range of information and security solutions, offering consulting services.
The company reported a net loss of $13.8 million last year, alongside a basic and diluted loss per share of $4.35. The company’s assets increased to $64.1 million from $61.2 million, with current assets including a significant rise in cash and cash equivalents from $6.9 million to $24.7 million.
Despite its influx of cash, it previously made some serious moves in the M&A department. That includes acquiring robot-related business assets from Shenzhen Kewei Robot Technology, which I anticipate will help give it an edge in the market.
GFAI’s press release about its acquisition states that it includes the “select equipment assets, client base in the sales pipeline and related sales channels and staff, as well as provide rights to the permanent use of its patents, thereby enhancing Guardforce AI’s new Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) sales and capabilities.”
Finally, it may be undervalued. There are accounting profits predicted by Wall Street analysts within the next 12 months and trading at just around 1 times sales at the time of writing suggests it is a good investment.
On Penny Stocks and Low-Volume Stocks: With only the rarest exceptions, InvestorPlace does not publish commentary about companies that have a market cap of less than $100 million or trade less than 100,000 shares each day. That’s because these “penny stocks” are frequently the playground for scam artists and market manipulators. If we ever do publish commentary on a low-volume stock that may be affected by our commentary, we demand that InvestorPlace.com’s writers disclose this fact and warn readers of the risks.
