/Get Started

Up and running in four commands

Quantcept is open source (Apache-2.0). Run it locally for free with built-in tools and your own LLM key. A packaged npm install is on the way; for now, build from source.

/Prerequisites

What you need

Node.js

Powers the launcher that resolves the right binary for your platform.

Bun 1.3.14+

The runtime, package manager and test runner used to build and run from source.

An LLM key

Anthropic-compatible (Anthropic, MiniMax, …) or OpenAI-compatible. Bring your own.

Quantcept works with any Anthropic-compatible or OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Set three variables and you are analyzing. Everything runs locally and free; connect Fincept cloud later for premium data.
