Research on your trade, before you place it.

You write the trade. Blindspot does the research a desk would do, and shows what your reasoning leaves out.

The Blindspot composer. The trade, long gold at 4140 with SL 4085 and TP 4290, is highlighted word by word, with six chips showing which parts are there.

Real screens from the app, replaying an example trade (XAU/USD · 9 October 2026).

Trading software is built to help you act faster. Prices, alerts, a button to buy. None of it reads your reasoning. We're building the one that helps you think first.

Blindspot

  • Reads the trade you wrote
  • Does the research behind it
  • Shows you what it leaves out

It reads your trade as you type.

Blindspot Lens, our own model, highlights each part of your trade as you write it. What's missing shows before the test starts. It runs on your Mac.

A score for the reasoning. Never for the trade.

This trade gives two reasons and its levels, but no timeframe, no calendar and no positioning. The score shows how complete the reasoning is, not whether the trade will work.

The result page: 37 out of 100, a short summary, the deck of 25 checks, the dates in the trade's window, and a card for each Spot with its character.

Learn it card by card. Watch the score climb.

Each card is one thing your trade left out, with its date and source. Got it adds the points. Later sends it to the back.

Tap Got it and watch the score.

The one goal of Blindspot Desk, a small, independent research desk.

Research first

We study where trade ideas break, then build that into the app.

We show the method

What it reads, what each Spot checks, and how often it gets it right.

Read the method

Measure, then publish

Every version is tested. The results go on the wall, limits included.
