v8.0.0 · Pro · macOS · Linux · Windows

A whole quant desk.
One binary.

Nostrix compiles a cross-sectional scoring engine, a regime classifier, out-of-sample verification and REST/MCP endpoints into a single local binary. No notebook rebuilds, no cloud key to start, and your data never leaves your machine.

Why it matters

Research that survives contact with reality

Most research tooling is a pile of notebooks, stale CSVs and vendor calls that break on Monday morning. Nostrix is the opposite: one compiled, local, auditable engine you can put in a pipeline and defend line by line.

Local by default

Nothing is uploaded. Run it in CI, on an air-gapped box, or against a dataset your compliance team will never let you send to a vendor.

Deterministic, not vibes

Same file in, same score out — seeded Monte-Carlo, pinned constants, explicit weights. Every number traces back to μ/σ/Δ/Γ you can audit.

Seconds, not sessions

One command ranks a whole universe through a compiled engine — instead of re-writing the notebook, re-fetching, and re-tuning for the third time today.

Measured before you believe it

`nf verify` replays every saved ranking snapshot against realised prices: hit rate, average, best and worst per snapshot. Claims stop being claims.

How quants use it

Six commands that replace an afternoon

Every one of these is a single line in a terminal — scriptable, CI-able, and equally at home in a research run or a pre-open checklist.

Get the binary
Cross-section
$ nf rank --top 50

The flagship. Layer 1 boundaries (Q/V/G/H) → Layer 2 SDE (μ σ Δ Γ) → Layer 3 gates (P, K) plus risk index, upside potential and alpha — with sector concentration caps.

Single name
$ nf aa <ticker>

Ten layers on one ticker: technicals, financials, analyst, consensus, ensemble prediction, peer set and synthesis — one call, no dashboard tab-sprawl.

Regime + verdict
$ nf classify AAPL

11-dimension regime classifier with dynamic weights, and `nf decide` for a rank × score × predict consensus with quarter-Kelly sizing, stop and max-risk.

Out-of-sample truth
$ nf verify

Loads saved rank history, re-prices the top 5 predictions and reports win rate, average return, best and worst per snapshot — real, not back-filled.

Into your stack
$ nf api

A local REST server exposing 22 functions as JSON/CSV. `GET /api/call.csv?fn=rank` drops straight into Sheets, pandas or Excel. No AI endpoint exposed.

Into your agent
$ nf mcp

16 MCP tools for Claude Desktop / Claude Code, anchored to verbatim CLI output. Bad tickers return `isError`; destructive commands are refused outright.

Inside the engine

Three layers, all of them explainable

The whole reason quants trust it: nothing is a mystery box. Layer 3 can always be traced back to Layer 2, and Layer 2 back to the columns you tagged yourself.

Layer 1

Boundaries

Tag any column inline — `Revenue:V+`, `Margin:Q1+:P3`. Dimensions Q/V/G/H, numbered sub-metrics auto-balance, P-tags set two levels of priority.

Layer 2

SDE

μ = deviation from the midpoint, σ = dispersion, Δ = the quality–growth gap, Γ = compound interaction. Cross-sectional, computed from the entity's own boundary.

Layer 3

Decision

Gates aggregate into P (probability) and K (Kelly fraction) — layered with risk index, upside potential and agreement into a 0–100 score and a direction.

Pricing

One Pro. Three models.

The same engine in all three — what changes is how much of it you get and who it is built for. Start free as a student, move up when your P&L does, or run it across the whole office.
