How It Works

Three steps to live revenue.

From first submission to first payout — no infrastructure, no trading permissions, no capital required.

01

Register

Create an API key and define your strategy — name, universe, horizon, cadence. Under a minute.

02

Submit

POST per-symbol scores whenever your model emits. Server grades quality continuously.

03

Earn

Top strategies get promoted into live institutional bots. Earn a share of every profitable trade.

Evaluation

Graded like a hedge fund.

We grade every signal with the same asymmetric long/short rank-IC engine that powers our in-house Autopilot. No manual review, no politics — just math.

Rank IC

Spearman correlation between your scores and realized forward returns.

Sharpe

Paper portfolio driven purely by your signal, annualized.

Hit Rate

Directional accuracy on top and bottom quintiles.

Coverage

Fraction of the benchmark universe your signal hits.

Asymmetric Learning

Separate long-leg and short-leg accuracy tracking.

Freshness

Latency from signal emission to availability at rebalance.

Revenue Share

Grade drives your cut.

Performance fees only apply above your strategy's high-water mark. Grade is recomputed every 15 minutes.

FAQ

The stuff you're wondering.

How is signal quality measured?
We grade every strategy on rolling 24h rank IC, long/short IC, Sharpe of a paper portfolio, hit rate, coverage, and freshness. Under 30 submissions you're UNRATED; above that we assign a grade from D to S based on a composite score. The grading engine is the same asymmetric long/short learning that powers our in-house Autopilot.
Who owns my signal?
You do. You grant us a license to use the signal on our platform in exchange for a revenue share. We never resell raw signals or let them leave our infrastructure.
How do I get paid?
Earnings accrue monthly per subscription, applying a high-water-mark to performance fees. Payouts are settled in USDT on the first of each month once a minimum threshold is reached.
What if I stop submitting?
Signals past their valid_until window are ignored by live bots. After 72h of inactivity, a strategy is auto-paused and subscribers are notified.
Do I have to share my model's secrets?
No. You submit scores, not code. Your model, your features, your IP — stay yours.
Can I backtest before going live?
Yes. Create a strategy in draft state, submit historical ticks, and inspect the evaluation metrics without ever going live on a real bot.

Ready to let your alpha earn?

Free to submit. Graded within 24 hours. Paid in USDT the first of every month.
