Your Code Stays Yours

We understand that your algorithm is your intellectual property. That's why we've built our platform with IP protection at its core.

  • Code is never shared. Subscribers never see your source code - only the algorithm's name, description, and verified performance results.
  • Execution is isolated. Your algorithm runs in secure, sandboxed containers that prevent reverse engineering.
  • You control visibility. Choose what metrics and information to display publicly.
  • Trade secrets stay secret. Your strategy logic, indicators, and parameters remain completely private.
Private Source code, logic, parameters
Public Name, description, backtest results

Your Earnings Potential

Set your own price and earn recurring revenue from subscribers

Example: 100 Subscribers at $60/month

Monthly subscription revenue $6,000
Platform fee (20%) -$1,200
Your monthly earnings $4,800

Build a following, and your algorithm can generate significant passive income while you sleep.
