Why we exist

Most trading claims can't be checked. Ours can.

Screenshots, backtests and chat bots make it easy to tell a good story about a strategy and hard to verify one. We think the answer is a better record, not a smarter promise. AI helps you write the rules, code runs them, and every decision is published with the numbers behind it.

01

AI writes. Code runs.

A language model turns your idea into rules you can read. A deterministic engine executes them. No model improvises a trade.

02

A reason for every trade.

Each buy, sell or hold carries the prices and indicator values that triggered it.

03

History can't be rewritten.

Decisions, orders and fills are stored append-only and stamped with market time.

04

You stay in control.

Your rules, your account. Real agents trade only through your broker's own authorization.

05

Software, not advice.

Flat subscription pricing. We never take a cut of trades or profits, and never tell anyone what to buy.

06

Licensed data.

Commercial market data feeds and public SEC filings, recorded once and read the same way every time.

Leadership

Built by an engineer who ships at scale.

Sung has spent more than ten years building consumer products used by millions. At Google he worked on Gmail, used by more than a billion people.

Before Google he built delivery logistics at DoorDash, and most recently worked on new verticals at Airbnb. He started Alphaground to give every investor what professional desks take for granted: rules that run exactly as written and a record no one can edit.

Security and trust

Built so you never have to take our word for it.

We never hold your money.

Alphaground is software. Funds stay at your brokerage, and we cannot deposit, withdraw or transfer money from any account.

Official broker sign-in.

Brokerage connections use the broker's own OAuth authorization. We never see your brokerage password, and you can revoke access at any time.

Payments through Stripe.

Subscriptions are processed by Stripe. Card numbers never reach our servers.

Permanent, timestamped records.

Every decision is stored append-only with market time. The database itself rejects edits and deletions.
