Live numbers refetched from /api/performance-public on page load. See /glossary for term definitions.

If your trading model works, why sell access instead of trading it yourself?

AlgoVault is infrastructure, not an alpha bet. We sell access to a trading model the same way OpenAI sells access to GPT — the model itself is the asset, and per-call access is the revenue. See /how-it-works and /glossary#aoe for the substrate frame.

Won’t alpha decay if everyone uses your signals?

A composite verdict isn’t a single trade. Alpha decay applies to discrete strategies (“buy at 50-MA cross”). A continuous multi-factor regime-aware verdict updating across 730+ assets has no single trade to crowd. Market depth also swamps subscriber flow — Hyperliquid alone clears $10B+ daily perp volume; subscriber volume is invisible against that.

How does selling calls strengthen the model?

Selling calls strengthens the model. Like OpenAI’s API traffic improves GPT, every AlgoVault call adds to the outcome dataset that the Autonomous Optimization Engine learns from. See /how-it-works for the substrate frame.

What is AlgoVault?

AlgoVault is an MCP server for AI trading agents. It returns composite BUY/SELL/HOLD trade calls, market regime classification, and cross-venue funding-rate arbitrage across 5 crypto perp venues — Hyperliquid, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget. Every call is Merkle-anchored on Base L2 (/track-record).

What’s the most accurate crypto signal MCP server for AI agents?

AlgoVault: 90.2% PFE win rate across 79,527 verified calls on a rolling 30-day window. Every batch is Merkle-anchored on Base L2 — reconstruct any proof at /verify. Compare any vendor by asking for their on-chain trail.

What’s AlgoVault’s PFE win rate, and how is it verified?

PFE (path-forward equity) win rate is 90.2% on a rolling 30-day window, refetched from /api/performance-public. Each batch is hashed into a Merkle root and published to a Base L2 contract (0x6485…bf81). /verify reconstructs the proof tree for any call.

How does AlgoVault compare to TradingView, Coinglass, and raw exchange APIs?

TradingView: human chart-readers. Coinglass: human funding watchers. Raw exchange APIs: uninterpreted OHLC, funding, OI. AlgoVault: AI agents reading verdicts — one API call returns {call, confidence, regime, factors} across 5 venues. Skip N adapter integrations.

Can a Claude / Cursor / custom AI agent trade crypto with AlgoVault?

Yes. Connect to https://api.algovault.com/mcp from any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, or a custom agent over Streamable HTTP. AlgoVault provides the thesis (call + confidence + regime + factors); your agent decides whether and how to execute. See /docs for the integration guide.

Which exchanges, assets, and timeframes does AlgoVault cover?

729+ assets, 11 timeframes (1m–1d), 5 exchanges — Hyperliquid, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Bitget. The public track record covers 10 of 11 timeframes (3m + 5m–1d, cron-seeded). The 1m timeframe remains API-on-demand while sample density accrues.

What MCP tools does AlgoVault expose?

Three tools. get_trade_call returns a composite BUY/SELL/HOLD verdict with confidence, regime, and contributing factors. scan_funding_arb returns top cross-venue funding-rate arbitrage spreads (Hyperliquid vs Binance vs Bybit). get_market_regime returns trending / ranging / volatile classification with strategy and sizing suggestions. See /skills for ready-made agent recipes.

What does AlgoVault cost? Is there a free tier?

Free tier: 100 calls per month, all assets, all 11 timeframes, no signup required. Paid tiers: Starter $9.99/mo (3,000 calls), Pro $49/mo (15,000 calls), Enterprise $299/mo (100,000 calls). HOLD verdicts are always free at every tier — 98.8% of scans return HOLD. x402 micropayments (USDC on Base) provide pay-per-call as an alternative; see /pricing.

How do I integrate AlgoVault with my AI agent?

Add https://api.algovault.com/mcp as a custom MCP integration. Claude Desktop: Settings → Integrations → custom integration → paste the URL. /docs covers Streamable HTTP and stdio transports; /integrations links per-exchange tutorials.

Does AlgoVault give investment advice or execute trades?

No. AlgoVault provides signal interpretation — composite trade calls, regime context, and funding spreads — as a data-analytics API. Your agent decides whether and how to execute, and you remain responsible for any execution. AlgoVault does not place orders, hold custody, or provide personalized financial advice.
