Surmount

Surmount is an AI-driven investment management platform designed to help individual investors and small firms systematically implement, test, and automate trading strategies. Its primary purpose is to make professional-grade portfolio construction and strategy automation accessible without requiring programming expertise. Users can either deploy pre-built, research-backed strategies or design their own using an intuitive, no-code interface that abstracts away technical complexity while preserving flexibility and control over investment rules.

The platform provides a visual strategy builder that lets users define entry and exit criteria, risk parameters, and asset universes using conditional logic and data-driven signals. Backtesting tools allow investors to evaluate strategies across historical market data, reviewing metrics such as returns, drawdowns, volatility, and risk-adjusted performance before committing capital. Surmount also supports automated execution, enabling live deployment of strategies with brokerage integration, position rebalancing, and rules-based trade management. Risk controls, such as stop-loss thresholds and allocation limits, can be configured to align with individual risk tolerance and investment objectives.
