FundSeeder is built for traders who want a serious way to track performance, benchmark results, and find out whether they have what it takes to earn institutional allocation.
Add your strategy, link your brokerage account, and begin building a record that can be tracked, benchmarked, and reviewed over time.
Start by adding the trading strategy you want FundSeeder to track.
Connect a supported brokerage, use Email Sync, or upload trading data manually to begin building your performance profile.
Eligible connected and synced strategies can qualify for verification, public ranking, and review consideration once ranking requirements are met.
Once your strategy data is added, FundSeeder turns your trading history into a structured performance profile.
Track return, volatility, drawdown, consistency, risk-adjusted performance, and ranking history over time without relying on spreadsheets or self-reported stats.
Performance means more when it has context.
FundSeeder helps you see how your strategy compares against other traders across the platform using consistent metrics and trusted data standards.
See where your strategy is improving, where risk is concentrated, and how your results stack up across a growing universe of performance-driven traders.
Meet FundSeeder's ranking requirements and your strategy becomes eligible for the official leaderboard, where FundSeeder traders are ranked based on the proprietary FundSeeder Score that takes into account: risk-adjusted returns, consistency over time, track record length and several more quantitative metrics.
What it takes to be officially ranked
Manual uploads give you private performance insights, but are not verified or publicly ranked.
Official ranking is the entry point to deeper review.
Standout ranked strategies may move into quantitative and qualitative evaluation that looks beyond returns. Review considers how performance was generated, how risk was managed, whether the trader can clearly explain the strategy, and whether the results show the discipline required for allocation.
Standout ranked traders may be contacted by RQSI for allocation consideration. The traders most likely to receive allocations are not simply the ones with strong returns, but the ones who can demonstrate deep market knowledge, a clear understanding of how their strategy makes money, and the discipline to manage risk.
Turn your trading data into a verified record that reflects how your strategy performs over time.
See how your strategy compares against other talented traders all across the globe.
If your strategy stands out, it can move into review as a potential seeded trader candidate.
FundSeeder is built for traders who want a clearer way to track performance, benchmark results, and understand whether their strategy may qualify for deeper review.
FundSeeder is not built around short-term challenges, simulated payouts, or one-off performance screenshots. It is built around verified trading data, consistent measurement, and a real allocation review process.
FundSeeder can view eligible account data for performance tracking and evaluation, but cannot place trades, move funds, or access your trading credentials.
FundSeeder, which is owned by RQSI, is a trading analytics and manager discovery platform that helps traders turn real trading data into verified performance records. Traders can add strategies, connect eligible accounts, track performance, compare results to their peers, and find out whether their strategy has what it takes to earn allocation consideration through RQSI.
FundSeeder is open to serious traders at different stages, from individual traders building a track record to professionals managing established strategies. Anyone can create a profile and add a strategy, but official ranking and allocation consideration require eligible data, sufficient trading history, and other platform requirements.
FundSeeder gives you a clearer view of your trading record. You can track return, volatility, drawdown, consistency, risk-adjusted performance, and strategy behavior over time. You can also compare your results against other traders using consistent metrics and eligible trading data. If your strategy stands out, FundSeeder can help you move from self-reported performance to allocation consideration through RQSI.
FundSeeder uses objective, data-driven analytics to evaluate trading performance. Our quantitative assessment is centered on the FundSeeder Score which is calculated using the following components:
The platform focuses on identifying traders who demonstrate skill over luck, with an emphasis on disciplined, repeatable and uncorrelated strategies.
Top-ranked strategies may then receive deeper review, including how the strategy makes money, how risk is managed, how performance behaves in different market environments, and whether the trader can clearly explain the edge.

Yes. Since RQSI acquired FundSeeder, 15 traders discovered and evaluated through FundSeeder have received $151 million in allocations.
Those traders come from 10 different countries and span a wide range of experience, from independent traders managing a modest personal account to experienced managers already responsible for more than $50 million in assets from friends and family. They also trade in very different ways: systematic and discretionary, diversified futures and single-market specialists, large-cap equities and small-cap stocks.
Allocations are highly selective. FundSeeder has evaluated nearly 3,000 traders, and only a small group has demonstrated the performance, discipline, market understanding, and risk management required to earn an allocation from RQSI.
Fee structures vary by strategy, account structure, and allocation arrangement. In general, FundSeeder-sourced allocations are designed to align incentives between the trader and RQSI, with the trader participating in performance-based compensation when the strategy generates profits. Specific terms are reviewed directly with traders who advance into allocation discussions.
