# Overview

> What Ziplime is and who it's for

Ziplime is an AI-powered algorithmic trading platform. It lets everyday investors design a trading strategy, test it against historical data, understand the results, and launch it on a real account — without needing to be a professional programmer.

The core idea behind Ziplime is **democratizing algorithmic trading**. Capabilities that used to be reserved for hedge funds and quant teams with large budgets are now available to retail investors.

In one sentence: **describe a trading idea in plain language, and a team of AI agents turns it into a working strategy, backtests it, and helps you launch it in live trading.**

## The problem we solve

Algorithmic trading has historically been out of reach for most people for three reasons:

  <Card title="Programming skills" icon="code">
    Strategies are written in code, and the barrier to entry is high.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Quality data" icon="database">
    Historical, fundamental, and alternative data are expensive and scattered across sources.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Infrastructure" icon="server">
    Backtesting, live execution, and monitoring are a substantial engineering task on their own.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

Ziplime removes all three barriers: AI writes and fixes code on the user's behalf, market data is already connected inside the platform, and all infrastructure runs in the cloud with nothing to configure.
