Between the compute power offered for backtesting and research, multi-asset data, live trading support, and access to QuantConnect’s LEAN algorithmic trading engine, all users will benefit from the increased customization of QuantConnect’s services.
Under this new model, quant firms of all sizes (alongside individuals interested in à la carte services) will be able to better deploy their resources while accessing the institutional-grade technology provided by QuantConnect. Instead of a fixed price for a predetermined set of service offerings — which various funds, user groups, and individuals previously would have been subject to — the new pay-per-seat and -service model features varying product and feature layers, allowing for the flexibility and customization needed for QuantConnect’s diverse user base.
