Public Roadmap

What we're building,
and where we are.

We build in the open. This roadmap reflects the platform as it exists today and updates as we ship.

Last updated: March 2025

Single Instrument Backtesting Engine
Shipped
The core simulation engine for single-instrument strategy testing. Handles event-driven backtesting with full OHLCV data, slippage modelling, and position management. The foundation everything else is built on.
Complete
Multi-Instrument Backtesting Engine
Shipped
Extends the single-instrument engine to handle correlated positions across multiple instruments simultaneously. Cross-asset signals, portfolio-aware position sizing, and inter-instrument dependencies all handled at the engine level.

Lexicon
Active
A comprehensive, searchable dictionary of quantitative finance metrics. Every metric available in AlphaFind is documented with plain-language explanations, mathematical definitions, and interpretation guidance.
Progress90%
GPU Rendering Engine
Active
The HPC-grade graphics pipeline powering every chart and graph in AlphaFind. Custom-built to deliver 120fps rendering on any operating system — not a target, a constraint we designed to from the start.

Gilbert — AI Research Assistant
Active
An AI partner built specifically for quantitative research. Helps users build and debug strategies, interpret backtest results, explain metrics, and answer questions about their data. Available inside the platform 24/7.
Progress60%
Data Infrastructure
Active
Local database and pipeline for historical market data. Provides clean, validated time-series data for in-sample, out-of-sample, and holdout testing across all supported instruments and timeframes.
Progress60%
Charts Module
Active
The user-facing charting interface: 21 chart types, 75 indicators, 70 drawing tools — all rendering through the GPU engine. Built for the kind of detailed visual analysis serious traders actually need.
Progress55%
Library
Active
Central asset store for strategies, indicators, and primitives — whether they shipped with the platform, were purchased on the Exchange, or built by the user. Organised, searchable, and version-tracked.

Early Stage9 items
Explorer — Results Database
In Development
A high-performance screener for backtest results. Search, filter, and rank across millions of strategy configurations to find the highest-performing setups. Scales from 10M results on Standard up to 1B on Ultimate.
Progress40%
Research Module
In Development
A structured environment for rigorous quantitative research. Set a hypothesis, define parameters, document methodology, and track your scientific journey — with built-in workflow enforcement to keep research honest.
Progress40%
Live Trading — IBKR Integration
In Development
Interactive Brokers integration for live market participation. Manual trade execution and performance tracking on Standard and Pro. Automated strategy execution — putting a tested strategy live with a single confirmation — on Premium and above.
Progress30%
Portfolio Backtesting Engine
In Development
Extends the simulation engine to full portfolio-level strategy testing. Correlation-aware allocation, drawdown constraints, rebalancing logic, and portfolio-level performance attribution across any combination of instruments.
Progress25%
Forge — Strategy Builder
In Development
The primary interface for building trading algorithms — from single-instrument strategies through to multi-instrument and full portfolio approaches. Visual and code-based construction, with direct access to the backtesting engines.
Progress25%
Reports
In Development
Fully customisable tearsheet and reporting tool. Pull any metric from the Lexicon into professional-grade reports with charts, tables, and narrative exports — shareable as PDF or structured data.
Progress25%
Sensitivity Analysis
In Development
Visual tools for understanding parameter sensitivity across your strategy configurations. Identify which inputs drive performance and which are noise — a critical step between backtesting and live deployment.
Progress25%
Community
In Development
Forum, monthly challenges, feature roadmap voting, and mentorship — all built into the platform. The infrastructure for a community of serious traders who want to share, compete, and learn from each other.
Progress20%
Desktop Application
In Development
The unified application shell — workspaces, the panel system, navigation, and the full user experience layer that brings every module together into a single, cohesive desktop application.

Research Workflows3 workflows
Sandbox
Explore freely.
No constraints, no structure required. Build and test ideas as fast as you can think of them. Sandbox is where hypotheses are born before they become research.
Progress80%
Soft Science
Structured, not rigid.
A guided research environment with hypothesis tracking, parameter documentation, and results journalling — without enforcing strict access controls. For researchers who want structure without hard constraints.
Progress50%
Hard Science
No cheating. By design.
The holdout period is physically inaccessible until you explicitly commit to running it — once. Parameters are locked at research initiation. The system enforces the discipline that separates real research from curve-fitting.
