Veridex · veridex.fyi

Before you present your strategy, break it.

Veridex stress-tests your thinking — exposing blind spots, weak logic, and execution risks in minutes. Five independent AI critics. No flattery. Works on a full plan or a two-line idea.

The problem

Most strategies don't fail because they're bad. They fail because they're untested.

Hidden assumptions go unchecked until it's too late

Weak logic survives internal reviews — nobody wants to be the critic

No one plays the role of a truly adversarial reviewer

AI tools generate ideas and validate them — they don't challenge them

How it works

Veridex acts as your strategy red-team.

01

Paste your plan — or just an idea

Drop in a strategy doc, pitch, or plan. Only have an idea? Two sentences and your stage are enough — Veridex asks for what's missing.

02

Five critics analyze in parallel

Pre-Mortem, Unit Economics, Adversarial Competitor, Execution Risk, and Evidence Audit all run simultaneously in ~30 seconds.

03

Get a structured critique

Each lens returns a summary, ranked flaws by severity, and the sharpest question you need to answer next.

Example output

This is what a real critique looks like.

Excerpts from actual output on a crypto trading-bot strategy with a +52.9% backtest.

Lens 05 asked the question that mattered: the bot's open-interest data was stamped about five minutes early, so the backtest was reading the future. With that fixed, the test return fell to −1.6%.

LENS 01

Pre-Mortem

critical

The plan rests on a narrow causal chain: a 3σ up-move plus falling open interest means forced liquidations, which means a short-lived spike that can be sold into. That causal link proved fragile.

Core causation assumption: OI drop + price spike ⇒ reliable mean reversion

→Can you show with labelled, out-of-sample events that this setup predicts a high-probability retrace, and quantify when it fails?

LENS 02

Unit Economics

critical

The document gives projected MRR and a $49/month price but no unit-economics backing: no per-user serving costs, CAC, churn, LTV or payback model.

No per-user cost breakdown (compute, storage, messaging, support)

→What are total monthly infrastructure costs at 500 and at 5,000 subscribers?

LENS 03

Adversarial Competitor

critical

The edge is a simple rule on public data, with no proprietary data and no distribution moat. An incumbent can replicate and bundle it cheaply.

Core edge is trivial to replicate or neutralize

→What do you own that prevents an exchange or large platform from shipping an identical signal for free?

LENS 04

Execution Risk

critical

The plan understates the operational work of running a live, leveraged, multi-asset bot. One small server and one operator is a single point of failure.

Single server + single operator = catastrophic failure point

→What redundancy, monitoring and emergency actions will you have before going live, so one failure can't leave positions uncontrolled?

LENS 05

Evidence Audit

critical

The test period strongly beats training (Sharpe 3.18 vs 1.46). That is a classic sign of leakage, not robustness. The 5-minute open-interest series may not have been available when the strategy acts on it.

Possible look-ahead from open-interest timing

→Re-run with every 5-minute open-interest input lagged by one full bar. Do the +52.9% and Sharpe 3.18 survive?
