Product thesis

Not a chatbot. An agentic hedge fund team inside a controlled app environment.

ZeroandZero gives agentic work a fund-shaped operating model: one agentic portfolio manager, nine standing analysts, durable policy, and governed workflows that span research, paper trading, live posture, and replay.

Harness engineering

Agents need freedom. Capital needs boundaries.

ZeroandZero gives the agentic portfolio manager and analyst bench room to reason, research, and coordinate without letting conversation rewrite strategy, approve trades, bypass safety, or become truth.

ZeroandZero keeps the agentic portfolio manager and analyst bench inside a macOS app-owned control plane. Model providers can reason. External platforms can connect. But durable truth, policy, approvals, audit state, live posture, and execution gates remain under the owner's local app.

For managing capital, a thick, local harness is not overhead or a limitation. It is the product.

Operating model

A structured operating system for agentic investment work.

The agentic portfolio manager is the synthesis layer between owner mandate, analyst coverage, and the execution engine. Specialist work can inform decisions without bypassing the app-owned control plane.

Owner mandate and approval posture stay explicit.The PM coordinates specialist analysts before proposals move forward.The app governs truth, routing, and execution state.

Owner experience

The owner works through an agentic portfolio manager. The app handles the governed path.

Command Center is the front door: ask, refine, approve, route, and intervene from one relationship. Telegram can extend continuity, but the app remains the system of record.

Analyst bench

A seeded research team, not a loose prompt swarm.

The analyst bench is formal and durable, with sector specialists and overlay desks that can perform recurring coverage or on-demand work under charter rules.

Six sector sleeves provide recurring coverage.Three overlay desks monitor news, macro, and portfolio risk.All work returns through PM synthesis instead of autonomous drift.

Policy documents and charters flowing into a secure orchestration core

Master policy

Policy is durable, editable, and owned by the app.

Strategy Briefs and Analyst Charters carry mandate, posture, source policy, and reusable operating guidance. The agentic portfolio manager can recommend change; the owner approves the truth.

Market intelligence to replay

One intelligence substrate. One proposal path. One replayable operating model.

Curated feeds, Alpaca News, and SEC events normalize into app-owned context. Ideas can move from agentic portfolio manager synthesis to paper, live readiness, or deterministic replay without changing the core workflow.

Operator controls

The final Live gate is Biometric.

Before a Live order can be submitted, ZeroandZero can require Touch ID or the Mac password on the owner’s Mac. That biometric layer does not replace proposal approvals, Live arming, or the kill switch — it sits above them as the final local control.
