About ACIS
Alpha Centauri Investment Strategies Inc. is building institutional-grade AI portfolio technology for the investment industry. We combine 40 years of professional trading expertise with modern machine learning.
Our Mission
ACIS is building the next generation of AI-powered portfolio intelligence. We've combined 40 years of professional trading methodology with self-learning machine learning systems that adapt to changing market conditions.
Our platform is currently in beta as we refine the technology and explore strategic partnerships with brokerages, robo-advisors, and investment firms who want to offer sophisticated AI capabilities to their clients.
The system analyzes 1,700+ stocks daily across 8 AI strategies—from conservative dividend income to aggressive small-cap growth—with institutional-grade validation and risk management.
