What Analess is
The workbench, without the small print.
A clear account of the workspace, its purpose and its limits. See the release timeline or current access for where the product stands.
Analess is
- A market research workbench for stocks, forex and crypto — one connected workflow.
- A place to build an idea as a visual graph and test it on real history before it costs you.
- A reference: indicators, each with an in-app explainer, and drawing tools with in-app hints.
- Local-first: your research is stored on your device by default, with separate paths for connected services.
- Open to more people: available in 15 languages, including all its educational materials, with accessibility features built in.
Analess isn’t
- A broker or exchange — it doesn’t place trades or hold your funds.
- An adviser — it gives no investment, financial, or tax advice, and no personalised recommendations.
- A source of "signals" or "picks" — the screener returns facts that match your filters, not calls.
- A crystal ball — no tool here predicts the market, and none claims to.
Take your research with you
We want you to stay with Analess because it earns your time, not because leaving is hard. What you build here is yours. Supported exports use open formats such as JSON and CSV, and include the following.
- Your trades, journal, portfolio, watchlists, strategies and settings export as JSON.
- Price history you have cached exports as CSV or JSON.
- A backtest’s trades and fills export as CSV, and the full result as JSON.
- Strategies save to a file, and code is real Python and JavaScript, not an Analess-only dialect.
- Market data comes through your own provider accounts, so that relationship stays yours.
The limits that should guide your edge
Every tool has an edge and a boundary. Naming the boundary is how you know the edge is real.
Backtests are hypothetical
A backtest shows how a rule would have behaved on data you already have, with the benefit of hindsight. It’s a way to test an idea, not a promise about the future.
What a backtest can prove →A match score is not a probability
When the app detects a pattern, it shows how well the shape fits and, separately, how that pattern has behaved historically. Neither is a prediction for your chart.
Match score ≠ probability →Indicators describe the past
Indicators summarise what price has already done. They lag by design, they disagree, and reading one as an instruction is the most common way to be misled by it.
The indicator catalogue →Good research checks the data
Market data comes from third parties and the providers you connect, each with its own coverage, timing and gaps. Checking a figure against its source before you rely on it is part of doing the research well.
Read the disclaimers →Encryption works best on a locked device
Your local database is encrypted at rest, and that protection is strongest when its key stays protected too. Keep your device locked and up to date, and in the browser turn on Browser protection: the default browser key is unprotected.
How your data is handled →AI output needs review
The AI tools are planned. A connected model can return errors, and its responses are not endorsed by Analess. Research assistance does not replace your judgement or make its conclusions verified.
Agent actions and human control →See for yourself
