Inalpha

Find alpha with a fox's eye.

The quant familiar · backtest = paper = live

Conversational AI agents for quantitative research, strategy authoring, and paper trading — wired with Claude Code–grade engineering discipline.

The loop

One loop. User → agents → kernels → strategy.

An orchestrator routes your prompt across three Python kernels. Decisions flow back into the conversation — fully transparent.

Three kernels

Three Python services, one conversation.

Why Inalpha

Engineering discipline, not vibes.

  • 01

    Unified kernel

    One strategy codebase across backtest, paper, and live. Behavior must be identical — or nothing is meaningful.

  • 02

    Agents are first-class

    Research, decision, risk, and review have dedicated agents — opposing stances, distinct toolsets, traceable decisions.

  • 03

    Transparency over precision

    Prefer an agent that says “I don't know” over one that sounds certain but cannot show its evidence.

  • 04

    Discipline over shortcuts

    Decision records, tests, declarative guards come first. Clever code is a bug nursery.

  • 05

    Long-horizon compounding

    Solid infrastructure before flashy features. Surviving long matters more than running fast.
