A PyQt6 desktop app powered by Claude AI with multi-layer governance, ML-driven signals, and Alpaca paper trading. Built for the cautiously curious.
Four steps to get Creature running.
Register your interest for early beta access. Once approved, add your Anthropic API key and Alpaca paper trading credentials in the Settings panel. Everything stays on your machine.
Add stocks to your watchlist dashboard. Creature fetches real-time data, runs technical analysis (RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands), and trains multi-horizon LightGBM models on each ticker.
Claude Sonnet generates trade signals with confidence scores. Claude Opus reviews every decision through a reflection loop, checking risk limits and challenging weak reasoning before any order fires.
Track paper P&L on interactive Plotly charts, review the Claude Assessment panel for live reasoning, and watch your mascot react to portfolio performance in real time.
Every trade passes through multiple layers of AI governance before execution.
14+ indicators including RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, moving averages, volume profile, support/resistance levels, and chart pattern detection.
Multi-horizon LightGBM gradient boosting plus a neural net transformer model. Correlation analysis, mean reversion signals, and seasonal pattern detection.
Synthesizes technical, ML, news, and fundamental data into actionable BUY/HOLD/SELL signals with confidence scores and natural language reasoning.
Reviews every Sonnet decision through a reflection loop. Challenges weak reasoning, checks risk limits, and can approve, reject, or amend before execution.

Common questions about Creature.
Creature is a PyQt6 desktop application for AI-assisted market analysis and paper trading. While it connects to Alpaca's API, we strongly advise paper trading only during beta. It's educational and experimental.
Creature uses a dual-model governance pipeline: Claude Sonnet generates trade signals and analysis, then Claude Opus reviews every decision through a reflection loop — checking risk limits and challenging weak reasoning before orders fire. You provide your own Anthropic API key.
Creature trains multi-horizon LightGBM models on each ticker in your watchlist, combined with technical indicators like RSI, MACD, and Bollinger Bands. These ML signals feed into the Claude governance pipeline for more informed decisions.
Everything runs locally on your desktop. Your API keys, trading data, and analysis logs never leave your machine. No servers, no telemetry, no tracking.
Full access to the Creature desktop app, watchlist dashboard, interactive charts, Claude Assessment panel, ML models, all safety controls, and priority updates. You'll need your own Anthropic API key (billed separately) and a free Alpaca paper account.
Because it's something new — an evolving entity that learns alongside you. Not a polished oracle. A creature finding its way through market data, one paper trade at a time. You'll even see it react to your portfolio — happy when profits are up, sad when they're down.
Please read carefully before using Creature Software.
Creature Software provides tools, not guidance. No recommendations. No management. Educational purpose only.
While technically capable of live trading, we strongly advise paper mode. Beta AI makes mistakes. Real money at your own extreme risk.
Pre-release, experimental, potentially unstable. Bugs expected. No warranty. Use at your own risk.
