Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Curated set · 2 capabilities

Capability set01 / 01

01-02

2 capabilities in this set.

Part of 2 available through Futures Options Strategy Engine.

  1. 01

    Analyze calendar spread

    This capability evaluates a specific calendar spread setup to produce a BUY or SELL signal. It weighs volatility, time, and cost constraints to decide if a trade is viable.

  2. 02

    Calculate spread metrics

    This capability performs the mathematical derivations for spread components. It provides raw data like debit and theta benefit without generating a trading signal.

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Identifying Volatility Contango

Your agent uses the IV term structure to find favorable calendar spread setups.

02

Risk Mitigation

The capability prevents trades on near-term expirations that carry too much gamma risk.

03

Spread Component Calculation

You use the math capabilities to find the exact debit and theta benefit of a potential trade.

04

Signal Validation

A trader inputs specific premium and IV data to confirm a BUY or SELL direction.

    A calendar spread is an options strategy where a trader sells a near-term option and buys a far-term option at the same strike price.

  • 07

    How are trading signals generated?

    Signals are generated via analyze_calendar_spread by evaluating IV term structure, liquidity (Open Interest), and time to expiration to identify profitable volatility mispricings.
