Vanta (SN8) Introduces Glitch, an AI Agent Platform That Builds and Tests Trading Strategies

Most traders don’t fail prop firm evaluations because they lack ideas. Many simply lack the tools to test those ideas properly. Strategies can look profitable on historical charts but fall apart once fees, slippage, and unseen market conditions come into play.

Vanta (SN8) is looking to close that gap with Glitch, an AI agent platform that helps traders develop, stress-test, and deploy strategies while connecting them directly to Vanta Network’s funding infrastructure.

The platform brings strategy development and access to trading evaluations into one workflow, giving traders a way to move from an idea to a tested strategy without having to piece together multiple tools.

Today we’re announcing Glitch.

Vanta Network is the funding layer. Glitch is its infrastructure to improve strategy performance.

Every Builder sub gets a $1M Pro account eval on Vanta Network, and Glitch revenue goes back to the network.

Here’s why this matters for traders and… https://t.co/k9VLRmkZNy

From Trading Idea to Tested Strategy

Glitch allows users to describe a trading idea in plain English or import an existing Pine Script strategy. Its AI agents then work through the development and testing process.

The platform’s workflow includes:

1) Strategy generation: An AI agent swarm builds and codes multiple versions of a trading idea.

2) Backtesting: Strategies are tested using historical data, with fees and slippage included.

3) Skeptic checks: A dedicated agent tests strategies on unseen data to flag potential overfitting, look-ahead bias, and other weaknesses.

4) User review: Traders compare the results and choose which strategy moves forward.

5) Deployment: Strategies can be run through Vanta Trading accounts, with alerts and Telegram notifications available for discretionary traders and automation for systematic traders.

Glitch is designed to support both traders who prefer to make their own decisions from alerts and those who want to automate their strategies. Users can buy and deploy strategies directly into Vanta accounts without exporting code or relying on third-party bots.

The Lead Quant chat agent is available on every plan, including the free tier, for basic strategy checks and live alerts. Higher plans unlock the full agent swarm, deeper backtesting, and automation.

Glitch Connects Strategy Building With Vanta Funding

Vanta Network is Bittensor SN8, a decentralized prop-trading and signal network. Miners submit trading signals, while validators score them based on risk-adjusted performance.

Vanta Trading is the consumer-facing prop firm built around the network, offering simulated evaluations, scaling Pro accounts, weekly payouts, and high profit splits.

Glitch sits on top of this infrastructure, helping traders develop strategies that can be used within Vanta’s funding ecosystem.

The integration comes with two key benefits:

1) A $1 million Pro account evaluation: Every Builder subscription includes an evaluation that can be traded using a strategy developed inside Glitch. This is an evaluation, not an automatic grant of a funded account.

2) Subscription revenue returned to SN8: Glitch revenue supports the included evaluations and additional competitions that offer free evaluations to strong Glitch traders.

Pricing and Access

Glitch’s month-to-month pricing includes four plans:

1) Explore (Free): Basic Lead Quant access and limited alerts.

2) Signals ($19): More alerts, 1-minute bars, and webhooks.

3) Operator ($39): Automated strategies, Pine Script import, and backtesting.

4) Builder ($79): Full AI agent swarm, out-of-sample checks, and the $1 million Pro account evaluation.

Glitch is rolling out a free, invitation-based beta in waves. Users can sign up through the official website and follow @TradeWithGlitch for updates on access.

More Glitch Activity, More Support for SN8

Vanta’s announcement also highlighted its monthly alpha burn figures, which have been increasing:

1) July: $32,000

2) August: $50,000

3) September: $88,000

4) October: $250,000

These figures reflect Vanta’s existing financial activity before Glitch subscription revenue fully begins flowing back into the network. 

What Comes Next?

Glitch’s longer-term vision is a collaborative system where traders, quants, and AI agents can share strategy components, customize their own agent swarms, and improve strategies through continuous testing with human approval. Further integrations with other brokerages and prop firms are also planned.

For now, Glitch’s launch brings strategy creation, testing, and Vanta’s evaluation pathway into one platform, while directing subscription revenue back toward the SN8 network.

The beta is rolling out now. Traders can join the waitlist at tradewithglitch.com.
