About

The world needs radically open-source fintech. Too many times financial companies keep everything closed-source as its a perceived "competitive advantage," creating massive inefficiencies where every fund re-creates the same data ETL, and FIX brokerage connections over and over. Today we open-sourced every brokerage on our platform, breaking this pattern, and taking a leap of faith to create a better world for everyone. We believe connectors like this should be done once and then open-sourced. We are building the operating system for quant finance, where every connector is prewritten, and every dataset onboarded. The mechanical low-IP connectors that so many vendors keep secret are public and free. You as a builder are free to create your strategy. Anywhere you want.
