Hedge fund
thinking.
$25 a month.
The investment research platform for serious retail investors. Every signal, every filing, every institutional move — synthesised through one structured framework. Pre-computed nightly. Delivered proactively. Backtestable in plain language.
One platform. Replaces five tools. Costs less than all of them combined.
Seven questions.
One clear answer.
Every hedge fund research desk works through the same questions before making an investment. Qademic runs all seven automatically, nightly, across thousands of stocks, and synthesises them into a single Setup Score. Here is what each question actually means.
The Big Picture
Is the overall market working for me or against me?
Before touching any individual stock, you need to know the macro regime. Are interest rates rising or falling? Is the Fed tightening or easing? Is money flowing into risky assets or running to safety? The answers determine whether the wind is at your back or in your face.
The Right Industry
Which sectors are winning right now, and is this one of them?
Even in a good market, some sectors massively outperform and others get crushed. Tech and financials behave differently in the same economic environment. This layer tells you whether the industry tailwind is real, or whether you are swimming against the tide.
The Business Quality
Is this actually a good business, and is it getting better?
Revenue growth, profit margins, free cash flow, return on equity, debt levels. The same numbers every professional analyst looks at when deciding whether a business deserves capital. Compared against its own history and against peers in the same industry.
The Price Behaviour
Is the market agreeing with your thesis, or fighting it?
Price momentum, short interest trends, unusual options activity. The market is a collective opinion. When smart money is quietly building positions while retail is selling, that shows up here. When short sellers are piling on, that shows up here too.
The Insiders
What are the people who know most doing with their own money?
Executives and board members must report every trade to the SEC within two business days. When a CEO buys a million dollars of their own stock, that is a statement. This layer tracks those transactions and the patterns behind them, alongside what major institutional funds are adding or cutting.
The People Running It
Would you trust this team with your money for ten years?
Warren Buffett has said management quality is the most important factor in any investment. Is this founder-led or hired? What percentage does the CEO own? How have they allocated capital historically? Have they created shareholder value over time or diluted it? These questions have answers.
The Timing
Even if everything is right, when will the market actually react?
Knowing a stock is undervalued is not enough. Markets need a reason to reprice. Earnings reports, product launches, regulatory decisions, Fed meetings — these are the events that cause prices to move. This layer maps what is coming, what the market expects, and what history says happens next.
The first five pillars are fully backtestable against 20 years of real historical data. Management quality and timing are informational — they tell you the context and the when, not a number you can put in a spreadsheet. Both are clearly labelled.
Everything a hedge fund uses.
Now in your hands.
Pre-computed nightly. Delivered proactively. Backtestable in plain language. Not a chatbot. The complete research OS.
Setup Score
All seven pillars synthesise into one number — 87/100. Plus the historical base rate: "Stocks at this percentile returned +31% avg over 12 months across 847 matches." One signal. Full context behind it.
Earnings Intelligence
Earnings in 6 days? See beat rate, implied move from options, analyst revision trend, management guidance style, and historical base rate for this exact setup. Every quarter, for every stock you track.
Proactive Alert System
8-K filed? AI summary in 5 minutes. Insider bought $1M+? Immediate alert with historical pattern. Unusual options sweep? You know before the news does. Alerts are filtered to your stocks only.
Natural Language Screener
"Show me profitable small-caps where insiders bought over $1M in 90 days and revenue is accelerating." Runs against 8,000+ stocks. Every result cited with source. No hallucination.
Plain Language Backtester
"Buy when Q4 momentum > 4.0 AND insider bought > $500k AND short interest falling." No code. 20 years of real data. Returns annual return, win rate, max drawdown, Sharpe. Every trade shown.
Portfolio Risk Monitor
"68% tech exposure. If macro turns risk-off, your portfolio historically loses 24%. Current Q1 score: 3.8 — safe. You'll be alerted if it drops." Thesis tracking per holding. Auto-contradiction alerts.
SEC Filing Intelligence
8-K: AI summary within 5 minutes of EDGAR publication. 10-K delta: what changed vs last year, auto-flagged. 13F: institutional moves parsed and searchable by fund. Free source, real-time.
Community Track Records
Three structured formats — Shared Screens (verified criteria + track records), Earnings Prediction Contests (gamified), Bull vs Bear Debates (timestamped, auto-tracked). Not Reddit. Accountability built in.
Verified data. Not AI guesses.
Every number Qademic shows has a source. "CEO purchased 50,000 shares — Source: SEC Form 4." People make real decisions with this data. Hallucinated financials are not a product. This is a different category.
Screen 8,000 stocks at once.
"Show me every profitable small-cap where insiders bought over $1M in 90 days and revenue is accelerating." That is a query against the full market in plain English. No general AI, no chatbot, nothing else at this price point can do this today.
Not reactive. Proactive.
An 8-K filed at 9am becomes an AI summary in your alert feed by 9:05am. Insider transactions are flagged the moment they clear SEC reporting. Earnings intelligence runs automatically every quarter. You do not ask. It tells you.
