The company initially aimed to offer automated trading insights that would assist traders in making decisions without the need for continuous market monitoring.

The company first focused on the analysis of equity markets. Between 2009 and 2016, its focus shifted to Over-The-Counter currency markets, and in recent years, it has shifted back to equity market analysis.[Source needed for founding and key details]
