Safety
Hard guardrails — enforced by us, not the AI
The model's output is only ever a suggestion. The limits that actually protect your wallet live in our backend, are enforced on every order, and cannot be loosened by the AI.
The guardrail engine
The AI proposes. The guardrails decide.
Before any order can reach your broker, it passes through a pure, AI-independent guardrail engine. The engine clamps the size or rejects the trade outright, and it fails closed — malformed or missing data results in a rejection, never a trade-around.
