About OpenQuant

Trading software should make reasoning visible.

OpenQuant combines two decades of SmartQuant platform engineering with a new model for AI-assisted strategy research—one centered on specifications, controlled execution, and evidence.

From platform power to product focus

SmartQuant has built event-driven infrastructure and tools for quantitative strategy development since 2005. OpenQuant turns that foundation into a focused, out-of-the-box desktop experience for people who want to develop and investigate strategies without assembling an institutional-scale internal stack.

Our point of view on AI

Generating code is useful, but a strategy fails long before compilation when its assumptions are vague. We use AI to clarify the contract, support implementation, and investigate observed behavior—not to conceal the research process behind a prompt.

Built for control

Specifications, source, configuration, diffs, logs, reports, and feedback remain inspectable local artifacts. Developers can take over at any point, and AI never needs to become a black box.

SmartQuant underneath

OpenQuant builds on the SmartQuant event-driven strategy model, curated API knowledge, C# projects, controlled build/backtest tools, and supporting infrastructure. It is a focused product experience on top of a serious trading-technology foundation.
