## What it does

- Visual no-code bot builder with configurable risk controls
- Strategy examples plus an AI builder that turns a plain-English rule description into a reviewable draft workflow
- Runnable triggers include Kalshi price/time conditions; selected ESPN game events; NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL injury/status headlines; today's NWS high/low forecast thresholds at supported stations; NWS alerts; earthquakes and hurricanes; crypto/equity spot prices; SEC 8-K filings; earnings results; BTC volatility/Bollinger conditions; and two polling aggregates (Trump job approval and the generic-ballot D-minus-R spread)
- External sources use caches and can be delayed or unavailable. Keyword/RSS triggers and arbitrary macro-release, sportsbook-consensus, or election-race feeds are not runnable product inputs. The in-app catalog is authoritative.

## How it differs from alternatives

- Non-custodial: bots trade through the user's own Kalshi API key. The company never holds funds, never has withdrawal access, and the user can revoke API access from Kalshi at any time.
- Transparent: bot logic is inspectable in the UI, and submitted activity plus reconciled trade history is available for review. Update timing depends on the engine, exchange, and upstream services.
- Self-serve: no minimum balance, no application, and no private sales or onboarding calls.
- Human-led education is limited to one free monthly group webinar with a live build and open Q&A.
- One Complete monthly plan at $99 with the visual builder, hosted execution, paper trading, signals, and risk controls.
