Executive Summary

Active Indian retail traders struggle with a flood of fragmented data — news, filings, broker research and social signals — but lack concise, reliable, and explainable trade ideas, which wastes time and leads to missed opportunities. The target segment (approximately 5,000,000 potential paying retail traders globally who buy analytics) is willing to pay around $300 ACV, but most current tools are either opaque or require manual synthesis. You could build an AI-driven research and signal platform that uses embeddings and LLMs to fuse market data, news, filings and alternative inputs into concise trade ideas, risk-adjusted signals, and human-readable rationales, delivered via mobile/web with one-click broker execution. To win trust it must include robust backtests, transparent performance reporting, data governance, and compliance-ready controls — not just predictive scores. The market is attractive now: retail trading in India is growing, broker APIs and partner programs are proliferating, and that combination lowers friction from insight to execution, supporting a $1.5B addressable opportunity (5M × $300 ACV). With a Market Score of 88/100 and Revenue Potential of 80/100, customer acquisition through broker partnerships and active-trader cohorts looks viable, but CAC, retention and live-signal proof will be the gating factors. You can differentiate by delivering demonstrably backtested, explainable signals, India-specific data and regulatory compliance, plus seamless broker integrations — a combination many incumbents lack. The challenges are medium competition, data and model maintenance costs, possible regulatory scrutiny and the need to prove live performance, but if addressed methodically this idea has clear commercial legs.
