Students are usually asked to defend a method they were never shown. AstraEye is built to show it. Analyses carry their methodology: the theory a method rests on, its sample-size caveats, and what it cannot support.
Research is divided between specialist desks, each covering one discipline across US equities and digital assets. A mentor picks the desks a question needs, so a class works the way an investment committee does: several methods examined side by side, disagreeing where the evidence disagrees.
“Price is behavior. I map the structure behind it.”
Examines price, volume, momentum, trend, volatility, breadth, correlation, and session data across crypto and equities. ATLAS describes technical conditions and relative strength without selecting entries or exits.
“Durable returns need durable reasons.”
Examines tokenomics, protocol revenue, development and governance activity, equity financials, earnings quality, estimates, valuation, and macro regimes. FELIX organizes fundamental evidence without rating an asset for purchase or sale.
“Markets move when the story changes.”
Summarizes news, regulatory events, scheduled catalysts, analyst actions, earnings calls, social activity, and source quality across crypto and equities. NOVA describes narrative shifts and event context without labeling them trade setups.
“One finding is a note. The committee is the score.”
Compares enabled scientist findings, maps agreement and conflict, and classifies broad market regimes. LYRA summarizes research relationships without evaluating a user's decisions, thesis, or performance.
“Ask me about the completed research.”
Turns completed runs into final summaries, visual briefs, anticipated questions, and explanations grounded in the available scientist findings. SAGE presents research in plain language without making investment decisions for the user.
“Research starts at the edge of the map.”
Builds liquid crypto and equity universes and runs standardized screens for momentum, breakouts, earnings momentum, emerging themes, new listings, IPOs, sector context, and watchlist research. SCOUT surfaces candidates for further research, not investment recommendations.
“Options price the distribution, not the direction.”
Examines the derivatives market: implied-volatility surfaces and term structure, put/call skew, estimated dealer gamma, options flow, perpetual funding regimes, open-interest positioning, liquidation clustering, basis and carry, and the premium implied volatility carries over realized. DELTA describes observed derivatives pricing and positioning, and does not tailor conclusions to user holdings or identify a transaction.
“Capital leaves footprints before price reflects them.”
Examines on-chain flows, holder distribution, network use, stablecoin liquidity, whale activity, and staking, alongside equity short interest, borrow fees, insider activity, and institutional positioning. NEXUS reports observed flows and positioning without tailoring conclusions to user holdings.
A finished report tells a student what a method concluded. It does not, by itself, teach them the method. SAGE is where that gap closes: a student can ask how an analysis works, why it is constructed the way it is, what its assumptions are, and where it stops being reliable.
The important part is what those answers are built from. When SAGE explains a method it is given that analysis’s own written methodology from the catalogue, so the explanation is AstraEye’s documented approach rather than the model’s general impression of an indicator with a similar name. Asked cold, a language model answers about method with textbook defaults: fluent, confident, and indistinguishable from truth to exactly the audience that most needs it to be true.
So a student can work outward from one figure they did not understand to the theory underneath it, at whatever depth they want, and what they are told stays anchored to the work in front of them.
A principal is enrolled by AstraEye, then runs the institution without us. They invite mentors; mentors invite students. Headcount is capped by seats, and a principal cannot appoint another principal, so delegation stops one level down.
A mentor picks the specialist desks, sets the scope and launches a run across US equities and digital assets. Principals administer the classroom rather than run research, and students never start it at all, which is why their accounts cannot reach the lab.
The mentor assigns a completed report to named students or to a whole class. The run belongs to the mentor; the student is granted a read of it, and that grant is checked before anything is fetched.
Students read the findings and question them in a chat that carries the run’s full context, so the answers stay tied to the evidence in front of them. Audio narration and translation are available as options a mentor chooses when running the work.
A test is generated from the report itself. Scores land in a gradebook with monthly aggregates and a CSV export the institution can take on demand.
No role in an institution can connect a brokerage or an exchange, or import a portfolio. That is a property of the account rather than a setting. The restriction governs what an account may start, so an account that already held a connection before joining keeps it, which means a cohort issued fresh accounts reaches no personal financial data at all. It is usually the first thing a compliance office asks about.
Where a student is given a report they have already sat, the repeat is recorded as practice and kept out of their average, because they have already seen the answers.
The run belongs to the mentor and the answers belong to the student. Those two identities are kept separate deliberately, so a student opening an assigned report reaches that report and nothing else of their mentor’s work.
Institutions are set up under a written agreement, with seats for instructors and students and a price agreed per institution. If you run a student-managed fund or teach a finance, economics or business course, we would rather hear whether the shape is right than keep guessing.
