StratVerra

StratVerra lets users describe an options strategy in plain English, have the built-in AI agent Xavi write it, and backtest it on hosted minute-level option chains with slippage and commissions modeled. Backtests run in the browser without a broker or installation. Strategies are versioned for reproducible results, and users can compose strategies from When/If/Enter/Exit blocks without code. To trade live, users install the desktop app, which places orders through their own broker gateway; the app must stay open while a strategy trades. The AI can write and backtest strategies but cannot place live orders. Access uses a credit system (100 free credits on signup, 10 credits per backtest) or a subscription that includes paper and live trading. The page presents simulated results only and states it is not investment advice.
