Press kit
For journalists, partners, and analysts.
The short version of what Sisul is, what it isn't, and the few numbers we have today. We'd rather be accurate than impressive. If anything here is wrong or out of date, please tell us.
- One-liner
A marketplace for algorithmic traders who can't get into a hedge fund.
- Slightly longer
Sisul is a pre-launch marketplace connecting profitable algorithmic traders with accredited US investors. Trades are chain-verified (SHA-256, anchored to Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps) and run in separately managed accounts under an RIA umbrella, with performance fees only. No management fee, no lock-up, no 2-and-20. The structure is SMA plus sub-advisor, not a pooled fund.
- Why it’s timely
It couldn't have launched a decade ago. Broker APIs (Alpaca), provable track records (Bitcoin timestamping), and the general-solicitation path SEC Rule 506(c) opened all had to be in place first. They are now, and none of the existing US players combine them into a marketplace an individual quant can actually list on.

Numbers update live from the production database. Demo seed profiles count toward chain integrity but are marked as demos in the UI.
- What we are not
- Not a registered investment adviser yet (see /legal/regulatory).
- Not soliciting or accepting capital.
- Not a copy-trading signal newsletter. Sisul is a marketplace plus SMA infrastructure, not a Substack.
- Not a hedge fund. We don't pool capital; each investor keeps their own brokerage account.
- Not a prop firm. Traders aren't handed simulated capital with payout contingencies; investors mirror real strategies with real money.
- Comparable companies
- Copy-trading platforms (UK/EU): closest in product shape, but they can't legally serve US investors.
- Interactive Advisors (US): closest US analogue. SEC RIA since 2008, ~68 curated portfolios. Every portfolio manager has to be their own RIA, which excludes individual algo traders by design.
- Collective2 (US): a signals newsletter on a flat subscription, not capital allocation.
- Numerai: closer to a hedge fund consuming data-scientist signals than a marketplace of independent traders.
- Founder & contact

- Visual assets
There's no polished brand kit yet. The look is clean enterprise: headlines in Schibsted Grotesk, body and UI in Instrument Sans, numeric data in DM Mono. Warm white surfaces, hairline borders, one vivid orange accent on pill buttons and links, and warm near-black panels. The wordmark is set in the display face; there's no logo mark on purpose. The chain and hash motifs across the product do that work.
