Broker tools
IB Risk Navigator · statements
Show execution and raw data, not strategy meaning. Brokers won't build decision support. For them, it's a regulatory liability.
The decision cockpit that shows its work.
Institutional-grade portfolio intelligence for the investor running a serious book themselves. Every number reconciles to your broker's truth, and you make the call.
A software tool, not investment advice. You control every decision.
The gap
Nothing in between actually thinks.
If you run a complex book yourself, your tools fail you exactly when it matters: at earnings, on a roll decision, when the call goes in the money.
Retail trackers
spreadsheets · dividend apps
Treat positions as independent rows. They don't understand that a stock plus a short call is one position, not two.
Institutional
Bloomberg · Aladdin
They solve it, but at €25K–€200K a year with a six-month onboarding. Built for desks, priced out of reach.
Valendis
institutional-grade, built for one
A decision surface that understands your strategies and reconciles to your broker. Priced for the investor, not the desk.
Why you can trust the number
Most tools approximate. Valendis reconciles.
Other tools model a fair value and hope it's close. Valendis ties every figure to what your broker actually did, and lets you trace it one click deep.
01 · LIVE
Live, broker-native
Wired straight into your IBKR gateway. You see current state, not an end-of-day, fifteen-minute-delayed snapshot.
02 · RECONCILED
Reconciled to broker truth
Every figure ties to your actual fills and positions: the broker's truth, not a model's guess.
03 · PROVENANCE
Every number shows its work
Coverage, freshness, and the source events are one click away. Honest n/a over faked precision.
04 · STRATEGY-AWARE
Strategy-aware
It knows your covered call is one position. Multi-leg options read as strategies, not a pile of unrelated rows.
05 · ATTRIBUTION
True P&L attribution
Realized gains, income (dividends, interest, fees), and the mark on what you still hold, each separated and reconciled to your total return. The currency effect is shown, not buried.
06 · DECISION LAYER
A decision layer you control
Exposure, drift, roll-or-assignment framing, surfaced for the call. You decide; it informs.
Why now, and why it's hard to copy
The enabling tech is finally here. The defensibility isn't the demo.
WHY NOW
AI resets what one tool can do for an investor: classify every instrument in seconds (what once took a reference-data team), read the research behind a name, frame the decision. Classification is where it earns its keep today; the rest is the roadmap. We built the reconciled foundation first, on purpose, so the intelligence always sits on broker truth, not a model's guess.
WHY IT HOLDS
A flashy demo is a weekend. A system where every number on a real, complex book (preferreds, multi-leg options, currencies, corporate actions) reconciles to your broker and holds up is years of edge-case work. That only comes together at the rare intersection of deep markets-and-risk domain expertise and hands-on agentic-AI engineering. Trust is the slowest thing to copy, and the first thing a serious investor needs.
WHY THE INCUMBENTS WON'T
The tools that could build it can't price it to you without undercutting their own €25K desks. The brokers won't: decision support is a regulatory liability for them. The gap stays open.
Who it's for
The investor who outgrew the spreadsheet.
You run €500K–€5M across 30–150 positions on Interactive Brokers: equities, bonds, preferreds, covered calls, cash-secured puts. You lose hours a week reconciling, and you don't fully trust your own numbers. Valendis is the cockpit you'd have built, if you had the time.
We hold this as a working hypothesis and we're using this page to test it. If this is you, the one question at the bottom is the most useful thing you can answer.
Honest by default
Where we are, and where we're going.
Valendis is real today: one investor runs it on their own capital, every day. Where it's going is bigger. The reconciled mirror becomes an AI decision cockpit that investigates your book, reads the research and sentiment around every name, and frames the call. You stay the CIO; the AI does the homework. We'd rather show you the seam than paint over it.
Real today
- ▪A working system, run daily on the founder's own IBKR capital. You wake to current state, not stale data.
- ▪Live ingestion and reconciliation across the whole book: every figure ties to your broker, not a model.
- ▪True P&L attribution: realized gains, income, and the mark on open positions, separated and reconciled to your total return.
- ▪Strategy-aware: a covered call reads as one position, not two loose rows.
- ▪Decision intelligence: exposure, drift, and roll-or-assignment, surfaced for the call.
- ▪One platform, reachable where you are: the web cockpit and a Telegram channel for alerts, approvals, and commands.
- ▪Order proposals, sized and ready, routed to your broker on one-tap approval. Observe-only until you choose to act; you authorize every execution. See it end to end ▸
Where we're going
- →An AI analyst that does the homework: today it ingests and classifies the research you feed it; next it investigates every name you hold or watch on its own, reads the research and sentiment, and frames the call. You stay the CIO.
- →Risk you can see before you act: what a roll, an assignment, an earnings print, or a volatility spike does to the whole book, before you commit.
- →Deeper truth, still traceable: richer independent market data and fundamentals woven in, each tied to its source with an honest confidence read. More data, never a black box.
- →Your book, opened to others, yours alone: the cockpit opens to other self-directed CIOs and the families running their own books, with your data isolated and encrypted, never ours to see or train on.
- →Beyond one broker: the same reconciled provenance across brokers past Interactive Brokers, and one view across the accounts a family runs.
Who's building it
Juan Carlos Romero
Fifteen years building market-intelligence, forecasting, and risk decision-support systems in finance and commodities trading, and today leading generative-AI and agentic-AI delivery at a European bank, across 120+ engineers and data scientists. Valendis sits at his intersection: deep markets-and-risk domain knowledge and hands-on agentic-AI engineering. The reconciliation engine is the kind of system he has built before, at scale.

Your data, your decisions
Connect once, read-only.
The fastest way to lose a serious investor's trust is to ask for the keys. Valendis connects to your data with a read-only token, and stays observe-only until you choose to act. Even then, nothing reaches your broker without your explicit approval.
CONTROL
You stay in control
Your data connects read-only. Execution is a separate, opt-in path: off by default, and when you switch it on, Valendis acts only on your explicit, per-order approval. It never trades on its own.
COVERAGE
Your whole book
Equities, bonds, preferreds, and multi-leg options, across the whole account. Not just the easy listed names.
RIGOR
Reproducible from your data
Your portfolio truth lives in your own data, reconciled. It isn't locked inside a vendor you can't audit.
STEWARDSHIP
Your data stays yours
Your data is yours. We don't sell it, and we don't train models on it; the AI provider we use doesn't either, by its own API terms. The deeper isolation that keeps your book invisible even to us comes with multi-account access: a commitment we name here before it's built.
Pricing: a working thesis
Priced against the weekend it gives back.
Not against Bloomberg. The honest comparison is the spreadsheet and the €30 tracker you use now, plus the hours you spend reconciling instead of deciding.
Entry
€49–79/mo
One account: the reconciled mirror and core analytics. The truth, in one place.
Pro
€149/mo
Multi-account, the full decision cockpit, advanced attribution. For the serious book.
Why it's worth it
~1 weekend / mo
Reclaimed from reconciliation. These tiers are a hypothesis we're testing, so tell us where they land.
