Define your investment thesis and strategy in natural language. Use auto-suggestions or browse the community prompt library for inspiration.

02

Upload Knowledge

Add research reports, financial models, and data (PDF, Excel, CSV, JSON) to ground your agent in your domain expertise.

03

Configure Parameters

Set your universe, rebalance frequency, position sizing, risk limits, benchmark, and starting capital through visual controls.

04

Choose Your Model

Select the foundation LLM that powers your agent. Compare models by reasoning depth, speed, and cost.

05

Select Tools

Enable analysis tools your agent can use autonomously — DCF, RSI, MACD, earnings quality, sentiment analysis, and more.

06

Review & Deploy

Review an AI-generated summary of your agent, check risk warnings, then deploy to paper trading or save as draft.

EXAMPLE PROMPT

YOUR INSTRUCTIONS TELL THE AI HOW TO BEHAVE AS A TRADING AGENT — LIKE BRIEFING AN ANALYST.

text
"I want to invest in US large-cap technology companies
that are undervalued relative to their free cash flow
growth. Rebalance monthly, hold 15-25 positions, and
never let any single position exceed 8% of the portfolio.
If the portfolio draws down more than 12%, reduce
exposure by 50%."
