Instruments for traders who want quality
We searched for honest, instrumented trading tools. We couldn't buy them. So we built them — with mandatory receipts, pre-registered methodology, and zero performance claims.
Hadal (/ˈheɪ.dəl/) — from the hadal zone, the ocean's deepest realm.
"We searched for it, couldn't buy it, and built it — module by module. First-frustrated-customer validation."
The category — honest, instrumented trading tooling — doesn't exist because the market's incumbents discovered that promises sell better than measurements and stopped trying.
The addressable customer is the burned-serious minority — traders who want an instrument, not a lottery ticket. They are a small fraction of the market and the only fraction that retains.
Six families.
One discipline.
Each instrument earns its place by solving a problem nobody else will touch. We do not resell external analytics or white-label third-party models. Every metric, framework, and mathematical model is proprietary intelligence, researched and computed strictly in-house.
Broker Feed Auditor
The fidelity battery as a service. Publication cadence, coordination structure, staleness distributions, spread regimes — on your own broker feed.
Overfit Auditor
Upload-and-check honesty for backtests. PBO, deflated Sharpe, effective-N, collapse ratio, dual-denominator FDR. Customers search for exactly this and find papers, not products.
Prop-Evaluee Risk Guardian
Desk-readiness for funded-account candidates. Drawdown-halt monitoring, sizing grids, risk-of-ruin surfaces, correlation-adjusted heat. Their #1 failure mode is exactly what fail-closed machinery polices.
Data · Research · Agents
Three layers, one philosophy. Provenance-grade data ingestion, epistemic discipline for research, and the agent-governance constitution that caught a fabricating system — with receipts.
HADES Terminal
A working quant cockpit where every displayed number carries provenance — git SHA plus the sha256 of its source artifact — or the panel honestly refuses to render. The anti-cockpit: it cannot display a number it cannot prove.
Audit the surfaces you trust
Two services, one question: can your dashboards and your gates prove themselves? Every number on a trading UI traced to its computation — FABRICATED is a first-class finding — and every CI gate drilled until it demonstrates it can fail.
A broker feed has a grammar. We measure it instead of trusting it.
This is a simulation of what a measured broker feed looks like: every tick timestamped, every gap visible, every pattern named. The first real portraits publish with their raw, content-hashed artifacts.
Receipts are the marketing.
Process receipts are unfakeable-quickly, safe to publish, and legible to exactly the customers we want.
"We caught our own system fabricating results. Then we built the constitution that makes it impossible."
The core asset is not any single module. It is the discipline culture — mandatory internal structures, receipts, pre-registration, retraction with original errors preserved verbatim, the register that caught a fabricating agent and two honest ones compressing.
Process receipts are unfakeable-quickly, safe to publish (they promise nothing about returns), and legible to exactly the customers we want. Filtering is the feature — products whose function is telling users hard truths bounce the dreamer class. What survives the funnel retains.
