GPU speed for the strategy workflow you already run
- About 1.2 billion strategy evaluations in roughly 18 hours on one RTX 3090 (measured).
- 100,000+ building-block conditions, so the search space has few limits.
- The strategies don't all look alike, so you can build low-correlation portfolios.
No credit card. Windows 10/11, 64-bit. Linux and Mac versions coming soon. GPU generation needs an NVIDIA card; CPU works too.
How AlphaPrime compares
| AlphaPrime | Strategy generator A | Strategy generator B | |
|---|---|---|---|
| History | Released in 2026. | Used "since 2005", per its home page; its about page says 15 years of development. | Founding year not stated; its site footer shows 2016. |
| Community | No public forum yet. | Official forum, now a read-only archive, and a Discord. A codebase where users share coded extensions. | User group access is listed with the license; no public forum link found. |
| Custom extensions | Tell the AI which indicator you want; it adds it through MCP and you generate and export with it, no extension rules to learn. Claude natural-language control; a run starts after you confirm in the app. APX strategy files. Source code export for six platforms. | Add your own indicators and building blocks, written as Java snippets; users share extensions in its codebase. | Add your own signals with its signal editor or Python. |
| Data types | Price bars you import (CSV, TXT and similar), tick to monthly. | Not checked for this row; see its features page. | Signals built on price plus market breadth, COT data, option flows, weather, news, economic data, fundamentals and more. |
| Operating systems | Windows 10/11, 64-bit. Linux and Mac versions coming soon. | Windows 11/10, Mac, Linux, Windows Server. | Not stated on the pages read. |
| Generation and speed | Generates from the conditions you set. On a GPU: about 1.2 billion strategy evaluations in roughly 18 hours on one RTX 3090 (measured). | Random generation or genetic evolution. States thousands of backtests per second and tens of thousands of strategies per hour, depending on data and test precision. GPU use: not published. | Genetic algorithm. States thousands of strategies in under one minute (its video demo). GPU use: not published. |
| Building-block conditions | 100,000+ building-block conditions. | Hundreds of building blocks, in a customer quote on its home page (read 2026-10-31). | 5,000+ signals on its home page; 7,000+ on its home page FAQ and features page (read 2026-10-31). |
| Signals, building blocks and base conditions are defined differently by each product. Each number only reflects what that product states publicly. | |||
| Built-in tests | Monte Carlo, robustness and walk-forward in the same pass. | Monte Carlo, walk-forward analysis and matrix, parameter permutation; can run inside the build. The Starter edition leaves out the advanced robustness tests and the walk-forward optimizer. | Monte Carlo, noise, variance and delayed-entry tests, walk-forward matrix; can be set as pass or fail filters in a workflow, or run from the results. |
| Export platforms | MultiCharts, TradingView, TradeStation, NinjaTrader, MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5. | NinjaTrader, MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, TradeStation, MultiCharts, JForex. | TradingView, NinjaTrader 8, TradeStation, MultiCharts, MetaTrader 4 and 5, ProRealTime, Python for Interactive Brokers. |
| Trial | 7 days free, no credit card. The 7 days start when you activate. | 14 days free, no credit card. | No free trial; demo videos on its site. |
| License | One-time perpetual license, one computer per license, 1 year of updates included. | Lifetime license, one computer per license, paid at once or in 12 monthly payments. Starter and Professional include 1 year of updates; Ultimate includes lifetime updates. | One-time lifetime license with future upgrades included. |
AlphaPrime is a new product, built for GPU generation from the start. Details of the other products were read from their public pages on 2026-10-31 and may have changed since; their sites have the current terms.
