Quandora is an MCP service ↗. MCP gives AI applications a standard way to connect to external data and tools.
Through Quandora, your AI can access market data, mine factors, build strategies, run backtests and start paper trading. The core capabilities are designed for your AI to call, directly from your conversation.
You describe a goal or a hypothesis. Your AI uses Quandora to investigate it, then brings back code, results and evidence you can review.

02 / THE INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
Let the data make the case.
Two influential approaches to investing. Quandora puts AI to work on the systematic, data-driven side.
FUNDAMENTAL / VALUE INVESTING

Research inputs
Business quality, financial statements and cash flow.
Decision logic
Estimate intrinsic value and look for a margin of safety.

THE QUANDORA APPROACH
AI proposes the idea. Data tests it. Rules turn it into a portfolio.
We apply the data-driven philosophy associated with Jim Simons, using our own research tools and models.
03 / A GLOBAL INVESTMENT UNIVERSE
One approach. Across markets.
Quandora is designed to research global assets and build portfolios across them. Spot markets and derivatives provide different routes to that exposure.

ROUTE 01
Spot markets
Buy and hold an available asset directly through a supported venue.
Asset coverage depends on available data, supported instruments and your venue. Derivatives have their own funding, basis and liquidation risks.
04 / FROM SIGNALS TO A PORTFOLIO
Small signals. A systematic strategy.
Quandora uses a factor-based investment approach. Your AI turns market data into signals, tests those signals and combines them into a long–short portfolio.

THE SIGNAL
What is a factor?
A measurable characteristic used to compare assets. Momentum, for example, asks whether recent relative price strength helps explain future performance. A model can combine several factors into a score.
Buy assets with stronger signals and short those with weaker signals. The strategy seeks to benefit when the long basket outperforms the short basket, whether the overall market rises or falls.
Long ↑Stronger signalsSeek relative outperformance
Short ↓Weaker signalsSeek relative underperformance
Balance long and short market exposures so the portfolio relies less on the market’s overall direction. Position sizing and risk controls aim to keep that exposure near its target as markets change.
Equal long and short dollar amounts alone do not ensure market neutrality. Correlations, market sensitivity and trading costs matter, and a market-neutral portfolio can still lose money.
Better strategies start with better factors.
Mine high quality factors. Then combine the ones that work together.

Consistency is a research target, not a promise. Annual and rolling comparisons depend on available data. Backtests do not guarantee future returns.
05 / YOUR STARTING POINT
A goal is enough. An idea works, too.
Connect Quandora to your AI, then choose how you want to explore.
NEW TO QUANDORA
Start with your goal.
Use your AI’s Goal Mode, where available, or give it a Quandora task. Let it choose from available official factors and strategies, run a backtest and check readiness for paper trading.
Use Goal Mode, if available, to build my first Quandora strategy with official factors. Aim for steadier performance across bull and bear markets, a maximum drawdown below 20% and a Sharpe ratio of at least 1.2. Backtest it, explain any unmet targets and check whether it is eligible for paper trading.
Explore the available datasets. Describe your hypothesis to your AI, turn it into a factor and use market data to test it. Review the evidence, refine the idea and test again.
Show me the market data available in Quandora. I want to test whether strong price momentum with rising volume predicts relative outperformance. Build a factor, check data coverage and look-ahead bias, then backtest it with costs and explain where the idea fails.
