We've all heard the hype. AI is supposed to change the world but, in reality, we're still sitting in traffic every day while everyone on social media gets dumber by the minute. Where are the flying cars and Terminator robots? Is AI only good for making memes and doing homework?
Accolade AI was founded on a simple premise: AI will either totally change our lives or it'll be never-ending hype, like those NFT cryptocurrencies. And the most effective way to tell the difference is to see if AI can help us make money. (Frankly, it better make us a lot of money.)
Our thesis is to use existing AI tools to produce world-class investment ideas and analyses. We're going to evaluate these insights through a dedicated portfolio and see how things work out. We're also going to publish the best of these, for free, in a weekly newsletter. Our thinking is that if AI is the real deal, we'll be able to see it happening in real time, together.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are you an AI company?
Not quite. We are not interested in building new AI technologies. Instead, we want to know how existing AI tools can be modified or customized to make us better investors — as good as Warren Buffett or Howard Marks or Michael Burry.
-
How do you do your investment research?
We work just like a traditional investment firm, except we don't hire analysts. Instead, we use agentic AI (i.e., virtual investment analysts), to look at all kinds of market data and develop investment ideas. We open-source the best of these ideas each week so other people can benefit from them the same way we do.
-
Why use AI?
If AI is truly a revolutionary technology, it should be able to help us make money in the stock market, and in ways we can't do ourselves, without AI.
-
Why publish everything you know for free?
If AI is genuinely game-changing, then it shouldn't matter: AI generates insights based on our processes; thus, how we use AI is the secret sauce, not the AI outputs themselves.
