The core path is seven steps and under thirty minutes. Everything else is depth, and depth is optional. Three ways to take the path: read it here, follow the checklist inside the terminal, or hand your AI the curriculum and let it teach you.
Arm your AI, become a quant, run the backtester. Three short playable lessons on real market data, no sign-in needed. About eight minutes end to end.
Ten minutes, one real strategy, real S&P 500 data since 2000. What a quant is, why software beats emotions, and your first strategy, animated end to end.
Run a study. One click on a Strategy Library preset, about one second of compute over Decades of market history and 42,272 tickers, every delisting kept. Your first backtest is on the tape.
Read the finding. Every test ends one of three ways: CONFIRMED beat the market on growth and on risk, and held up on data it never saw. TRADE-OFF beat it on one measure only. NO EDGE found no advantage, and knowing that is worth as much as finding one. The full findings system.
Change one number. Run it again. Watch what moves. Build your edge; do not hunt for it.
Save your studies. They follow you across devices on your profile.
Ask your connected AI to rerun your saved study with a different start year and report what changed. Every search teaches you something: a negative result maps the edge as surely as one that improves it. It can search the library, run studies, change rules, and report findings mid-conversation.
Validated criteria export to your AI; your AI drives your autotrader through your broker. QuantGPT produces evidence and current screens of YOUR criteria. It never places orders and it never recommends. The execution leg is yours.
One copyable block. Paste it into any Claude or ChatGPT conversation and it becomes your QuantGPT onboarding wizard. No MCP required.
Once armed, your AI can call the guide tool itself and teach you with live runs instead of words.
What CONFIRMED requires, the walk-forward split, and the methodology stated in full.
Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and claude.ai, step by step.
