Local Backtesting · Inspectable and User-Controlled

Approved backtests run on your machine without a hosted execution queue. Optional data and AI providers remain explicit boundaries.

C++23 Engine Speed

Native local execution with workload-specific benchmark evidence.

The StratCraft backtest engine is written in C++23 and runs locally. General speed multipliers are not claimed without a dated benchmark for the exact workload and environment.

Explicit Data Boundaries

Local execution keeps research artifacts in your environment.

The backtest engine runs locally. Network access occurs only through data or AI provider routes the user chooses to enable, and those boundaries must remain disclosed.

No Cost Per Run

Local runs do not consume hosted backtest credits.

StratCraft runs approved backtests locally without a platform charge per execution. Hardware, data-provider, and optional AI-provider costs remain outside that statement.
