Executive Summary

Retail Indian traders—an estimated 18 million active accounts—are flooded with noisy news, social chatter, and raw market data but lack time or expertise to turn that into concise, actionable trade ideas, which leads to suboptimal decisions and missed opportunities. The pain is especially acute for part-time, mobile-first traders who want short, confidence-scored rationales rather than long-form research. You could build a mobile-first subscription product that ingests exchange data, filings, news, and social signals and uses LLMs plus market-specific models to output bite-sized trade signals, plain‑language rationales, confidence scores, and one‑tap broker execution or watchlist integration. Include backtesting, performance transparency, and regulatory-compliant disclosures to build trust and retain subscribers across tiers (freemium to premium). The market is attractive: with 18M active retail traders and a $2.16B estimated annual market ($120 ARPU), rising Demat ownership and app-first trading are expanding the addressable base today. Advances in AI synthesis lower the cost of producing high-quality, scalable insights, improving unit economics for a subscription model. You can differentiate by fine-tuning models on India-specific market data, providing transparent audit trails and measurable P&L attribution, and optimizing a short-form mobile UX that prioritizes explainability and risk controls. Be upfront that competition is medium, regulatory scrutiny around investment advice is real, and controlling false positives is technically hard—start narrow (e.g., large-cap equities or options) and validate with measurable trial cohorts.
