Is this an AI pitch? You know hedge funds use algorithms right?

lol not ai! yeah i do. so basically i'm building: https://exponential.markets/ and currently looking to understand if repositioning our brand for investors to invest in hedge funds will be more converting rather than invest in algorithms
Is this a it like eToro copy trade?
yep, its similar! however, here you do not copy trade a person, here you trade as per the algorithm designed by the quant algorithm developer.
> quant algorithm developer.

How do you verify that?

we show the investors the algo's backtest performance with years of data & 3 months of paper testing it on live!

they bet on the algorithm & not the developer as such! but they can see the dev's other algos and their AUM, returns, sharpe ratio etc to see how they're performing

3 months is totally the wrong approach.
