I built an AI that tells you exactly what stocks to buy, how much, and when to sell

https://acis-trading.com

I spent 2 years building an AI portfolio manager. It analyzes 2,500+ stocks daily using the same ML quant funds use, then gives you complete portfolios with exact position weights. No more "what do I do with this stock tip?" Just follow the signals. Looking for early users.

    Having an AI that gives clear position sizes and signals could make investing easier for people who get overwhelmed by stock tips. I’d be curious to see how it performs over time and how you manage risk in the portfolio.

    Awesome work building something this complex — analyzing 2,500+ stocks daily is no joke. One challenge I often see with AI‑driven finance tools is trust and clarity upfront. For early users, clarifying exactly what the AI means by “signals” and how outcomes should be interpreted (without promising guaranteed returns) can make a big difference in adoption and long‑term engagement.

    Curious — what kinds of onboarding signals or feedback loops are you using to help users understand the model’s suggestions and their limits? Early metrics there usually shape the roadmap a lot.

      Thanks! Trust and clarity are definitely top priorities — especially in finance where overpromising is rampant.

      On "signals" transparency:

      • We're explicit that these are ML-ranked probability scores, not predictions. The models output relative rankings (which stocks look stronger vs weaker based on fundamental + technical features), not price targets.
      • We surface validation metrics publicly: Spearman IC, hit rates, and long-short spreads. Users can see when models are performing within healthy thresholds vs degraded.
      • Health scores (A+ to F) for personal portfolio analysis help users understand relative positioning without implying guaranteed outcomes.

      Onboarding approach:

      • Tiered strategy access (Starter → Professional → Enterprise) lets users start simple before accessing more complex strategies
      • Position changes are surgical (1-5/day) with clear audit trails, so users see exactly what changed and why
      • We show entry dates and period returns vs SPY benchmark — grounding everything in measurable, comparable outcomes rather than abstract "AI picked this"

      Feedback loops we're watching:

      • Subscription retention by tier (are users finding value?)
      • Portfolio upload → analysis completion rates
      • Which AI insight tabs users actually click (Market Regime, Performance, Sectors)
      • Email notification engagement (position change alerts vs weekly digests)

      The honest answer is we're still early on formalizing this — the product grew from ML infrastructure outward. Your point about early metrics shaping the roadmap resonates. What patterns have you seen work well for building that trust layer?
