Premiss: AI Trading Platform for Crypto Strategies

Premiss turns a trading idea into a crypto trading bot without code. The AI writes the Python, backtests it on years of market data, and runs it forward.

Premiss is an AI trading platform for crypto strategies, and a no-code strategy tester and backtester. Describe a trading strategy the way you would say it out loud, with no formulas and no code on your side, and the AI builds it as real Python you can read. It backtests the strategy on years of historical market data and returns a booked, auditable result: every fill closed, every number you can check. A strategy that survives its backtest can be promoted to a bot that keeps running forward on live market data, recording each simulated decision as new prices arrive. Premiss is a research and education tool, not financial advice. Backtested and simulated results are hypothetical and do not guarantee future performance.

Exchanges, fees, and going live

Premiss models the base-tier maker and taker fees of Binance, OKX, Bybit, Kraken Pro and Coinbase Advanced, so a finished result can be repriced at each exchange’s taker fee to show the fee a strategy breaks even at. A switch costing 10 basis points a side at Binance costs 80 at Kraken Pro. A strategy running as a paper bot can post its entry and exit signals as JSON to any destination you control, with your own authentication header. Real-money trading, Premiss Live, runs on your own Kraken account and is in early access for a small group of approved participants. No other exchange is connected for real-money trading.

    Several ideas at once, so one bad month is not the whole story.

The agent

One idea.The whole loop.

The agent pulls stock and crypto history, writes inspectable Python, checks the assumptions, runs the test, and keeps every result linked to the idea that produced it.

Every market in one place

Stocks and crypto on the same desk, so one idea can be tested against whichever history actually answers it.

Priced at your exchange

A finished result reprices at the base-tier taker fee of six venues. Real orders run on Kraken, Binance and Binance.US, in early access and behind approval.

Every idea on record

Stock ideas live in lists the agent can fill, and each one stays linked to the test that answered it.

Backtesting

The execution engine for every idea.

Premiss turns each idea into inspectable Python, runs it against years of market history, and keeps the assumptions, fees, fills, and result together. Test several approaches without waiting for one to finish first.

Exit rules

Take profit without guessing.

Premiss tests every step of an exit plan against the same market history. Scale out at defined targets, keep the fallback rule visible, and see how the complete ladder behaves before relying on it.

Anywhere

Also in your pocket.

Premiss opens in your browser, so there is nothing to install. Start an idea on your laptop and check on your bots from your phone.

Frequent questions

What is Premiss?

Premiss is an AI trading platform for crypto strategies. You describe a trading idea in plain language. It writes the Python, backtests it on years of real market data, and runs the strategy forward as a bot.

Can Premiss connect to my exchange account and trade for me?

Premiss Live can run a strategy you have already backtested on your own Kraken account. It is in early access and open only to a small group of approved participants while we validate execution and safeguards. No other exchange is connected for real-money trading today. Separately, Premiss can post your strategy’s entry and exit signals to any URL you control, and what your own endpoint does with them is your decision.

Is Premiss a crypto trading bot?

Premiss is the platform that builds one. You describe the strategy in plain language, Premiss writes the bot’s Python and backtests it on years of real data, and the strategy then keeps running forward on live market data. Bots run as paper simulations by default.

Do backtest results predict future performance?

No. Backtests and paper trades are hypothetical examples based on past market data. They are not financial advice and don’t guarantee future performance. Review the code, assumptions, fees, and trades before relying on any result, and remember that a strategy running with real money faces slippage, delays, and rejected orders a simulation cannot reproduce.

Which exchanges does Premiss support?

Premiss models the base-tier maker and taker fees of Binance, OKX, Bybit, Kraken Pro and Coinbase Advanced, so you can reprice a finished result at each exchange’s taker fee and see the fee your strategy breaks even at. Real-money order placement runs on Kraken, Binance and Binance.US, in early access.

Is Premiss free?

Yes. Premiss is free to start, with daily credits for chatting, backtesting, and running paper bots. No card required.

Ideas deserve a proper test.

We went looking for a decent way to test strategies on the market, and all we found was diagrams. Drag a block, connect it to another block, pick something from a dropdown. That works right up until the idea in your head doesn’t fit the shapes on offer, which for us was about ten minutes in. So we kept having ideas and kept not checking them.

Premiss is the thing we were looking for. You bring the idea and the agents work through it with you: reading the market, pulling the data apart, writing it up as code you can actually read, then running it against years of real history. Most of ours fell apart right there, which turned out to be the useful part. We’d rather show you a flat line than a flattering one, and we’d rather you lost an afternoon than your savings.
