Standard validation
Tier A
Most commonFrom €749
€949 business base
~48 business hours
Fixed-rule hypotheses that map to an existing live family and template.
One strategy, fixed parameters, one asset class, standard data, single symbol or template universe.
- Brief review and light feasibility
- Existing named template and fixed-rule validation profile
- IS and OOS validation on the scoped split
- Full validation gate stack for the family
- Institutional PDF with verdict, limitations, model card, and lineage summary
No new code, custom data ingest, portfolio composer, optimization sweep, or monitoring by default.
Extended scope / research
Tier B
€1,500 – €4,500
Quoted after scoping
3–5 business days
A validated idea that needs richer data, more tickers, heavier families, or a bundled sweep.
Multi-ticker baskets, enhanced or alternative data, research validation profiles, or parameter exploration.
- Operator scoping call
- Lifecycle IS → validation → OOS where appropriate
- Research-grade family profile and appendix when needed
- Same report standard as Tier A
- Optional optimization add-on bundled into a single quote
New data providers, bespoke strategy modules, or custom feature engineering move to Tier C.
Custom research / bespoke
Tier C
€5,000 – €25,000+
Milestone-based
Scoped per engagement
Novel hypotheses, non-standard data, custom joins, or pipeline work that cannot be productized upfront.
Custom data, new features, bespoke strategy modules, multi-leg portfolio constraints, or non-standard families.
- Formal feasibility assessment
- Signed brief and NDA available on request
- Prototype run, validation run, and final report milestones
- Custom strategy, feature, ingest, or adapter work where required
- Same validation rigor, with timeline tied to data and code dependencies
Scoped in weeks, not hours. We only quote after feasibility confirms the work is possible.
