Who we help
Built for the people markets left behind.
Independent quants with edge but no infra. Retail investors who want real algorithmic strategies, not robo-advisor beta. Emerging managers who need a distribution channel. Promethean meets all three where they are.
Persona 01 · Supply side
The independent quant developer.
The problem today
You have a strategy that works — but the edge is trapped. Standing up a feature store, experiment tracker, registry, scheduler, and execution stack is a year of plumbing. And even with a track record, you have no way to reach investors without a fund, a prime broker, or a compliance team.
What Promethean gives you
Institutional ML infrastructure behind one declarative SDK — feature store, reproducible pipelines, registry, compute — all server-side. Publish to the marketplace, set your terms, and keep 70% of the performance fee. Reproducible lineage proves your edge is real, so you compete on alpha, not on logos.
Persona 02 · Demand side
The retail investor who wants real edge.
The problem today
64–95% of retail traders lose money. Robo-advisors hand you passive beta with a fee on top. Trading apps nudge you toward options and meme tickers. Real algorithmic strategies — the kind funds run — have never been available to you, and the few that claim to be can't prove their numbers.
What Promethean gives you
Subscribe to vetted strategies built by professional quants, with honest performance history — returns, Sharpe, drawdown, AUM, and subscriber count — all tied to a reproducible track record. No code, no setup. Allocate capital, set your risk tolerance, and monitor in plain language. Transparency and risk disclosure are first-class, not fine print.
Persona 03 · Both sides
The emerging manager or quant team.
The problem today
A small fund or quant pod spends more on infrastructure and ops than on research. Reproducibility lives in tribal knowledge. Raising and retaining capital means a sales motion you'd rather not run — and every new mandate is another onboarding slog.
What Promethean gives you
Managed, multi-tenant infrastructure with org/team isolation, chargeback, and shared compute — so your researchers ship instead of babysitting clusters. Then use the marketplace as a distribution channel: publish strategies under your brand, prove the track record with lineage, and grow subscribed AUM without building a sales org.
