Self-custody trading software that keeps your keys on your machine.

What non-custodial actually means here

Most automated trading services ask you to hand over an API key with broad permissions, or to move funds into an account they control. That is custodial: someone else holds the thing that can move your money. QuantumMind is the opposite. The software that decides and places trades runs as a desktop app on your machine, and it talks directly to your exchange using a key that you create, scope, and store yourself.

There is no QuantumMind wallet, no pooled account, and no moment where your assets pass through us. Self-custody is not a tagline on this site; it is the architecture.

How the design keeps your keys local

• The bot runs on your computer. The trading engine, the nine-agent council, and your safety rails all execute on your own Windows or macOS machine, not on our servers.
• Trade-only keys, stored by you. On crypto, you connect an exchange API key scoped to view and trade only. On Interactive Brokers, your own local IB Gateway login is the credential, a separate, dedicated connection for placing orders. Either way, it lives on your machine and is used to place orders directly from there.
• The cloud is read-only. Our hosted backend handles licensing, telemetry, and the dashboard. It reflects what your bot reports; it cannot place a trade or touch your account.
• You hold the funds. Your balance stays in your own exchange account the entire time. Nothing is ever transferred to QuantumMind.

Trade-only keys cannot withdraw

On crypto, the key you give the bot is scoped to read balances and place trades. It is not granted withdrawal or transfer permission. Even if your machine were compromised, the worst an attacker could do with that key is trade within your account; they could not send your coins anywhere. Scoping keys this way is a deliberate, defensive default, and we walk you through setting it up correctly. On Interactive Brokers, orders route through a separate, dedicated connection from the one used to read prices, and IBKR itself has no concept of a withdrawal-capable API key: moving money still requires you, directly, in your own IBKR account.

A security posture, not a slogan

QuantumMind is built by a founder with a long background in cybersecurity and risk assessment, including work on United States government systems. Non-custodial design is the same principle applied to your trading: reduce the blast radius, keep control with the owner, and never ask for permissions the job does not need.

Try it without risking anything

Every account starts in paper mode, where the full engine runs against live market data with simulated money and places no real orders. You can watch exactly how it behaves before you ever connect a live key. See paper trading for how that works.
