Turn an investment thesis into audited, evidence-backed picks, without invented numbers.
Open source, MIT licensed. Live at synthetick.org.
Watch the full video (MP4). It is silent, with captions, and was made with whiteboard-video, an open-source Claude Code skill that turns any topic into a hand-drawn explainer.
You paste a thesis, an article, a tweet or a PDF. SyntheTick pulls out the idea and the rules you set ("only crypto", "European ETFs only", "no defense"), searches a universe of stocks, ETFs, bond funds, crypto and selected pre-IPO companies, ranks up to ten assets with a 0 to 100 alignment score and a reason, audits every pick twice, and attaches real market data where the data licence allows it. It is a research starting point, not investment advice.
- A requirement from your thesis is enforced three times: a SQL hard filter, a deterministic code audit, and an LLM audit against your own words.
- If nothing qualifies, the answer is "Nothing matched your requirements". Requirements are never relaxed quietly.
- Every number carries an "as of" time. If a vendor has no data, the card shows a dash. Nothing is simulated.

The single source of truth for behaviour is SPEC.md. When code and spec disagree, the spec wins; if you change a decision, change the spec first.
The cheapest honest setup is crypto only: a free Supabase project, a Voyage key, an OpenRouter key and a few cents of LLM credit per run. Follow the quickstart.
npm install
npm run typecheck && npm run test:offline # no keys, no database, no .env needed
cp .env.example .env # then fill in the REQUIRED values to run the appA public HTTP API and an MCP server for AI agents (same API keys, 1 credit per screen). See docs/API.md.
Read CONTRIBUTING.md. Pull requests target staging. Look for the good first issue label.
Security problems go through the private report on the Security tab, see SECURITY.md. Running it for other people? Read docs/PRIVACY.md.

- No vendor data payloads are in this repository. The only data file is a public on-chain registry (
runtime/universe/robinhood-chain.json: token contracts from Robinhood's public stock-token API, decimals and holder counts read from the chain explorer). Bring your own keys and read each vendor's terms before you display or redistribute their data. Equity and ETF data vendors usually require a separate display license for public apps, so the app hides that data unless you say you hold one (see.env.example). - Attribution is required for some free sources. If you show CoinGecko API data, show "Data provided by CoinGecko" with a link to https://www.coingecko.com/en/api next to it; for GeckoTerminal data, "On-chain data provided by GeckoTerminal" with a link to https://www.geckoterminal.com. The app does this out of the box.
- The code is MIT, except the brand assets in

Other company names are used only to say which service a piece of code talks to; no affiliation or endorsement is implied.
- Nothing here is investment, legal or tax advice. Tokenized securities and crypto assets can be restricted where you live, and
sail-agent/can move real funds.
