How It Works
AI transparency and system explanation
This page fulfills the transparency requirements of the EU AI Act for General Purpose AI System applications. It is a technical explanation, not a marketing page.
1. What Bullynx Is
Bullynx is an AI-powered educational research platform for retail traders and investors. It provides:
- Chart screenshot analysis — identifying observable patterns, key price levels, and potential scenarios from uploaded chart images;
- Conversational AI assistant — for market research questions, scenario exploration, and educational commentary;
- Market data queries — live prices and recent news for specific instruments on request.
Bullynx is an educational tool. It does not provide regulated financial advice. It does not execute trades. It does not access your brokerage accounts.
2. What Data the AI Uses
The AI has access to the following context when generating a response:
- your investor profile (communication style preferences — experience level, trading style, preferred assets);
- relevant facts the system has extracted from previous conversations (“memory”);
- the last several messages in the current conversation;
- live market data when you ask about a specific instrument (fetched in real time);
- recent news headlines when requested.
The AI does NOT have access to:
- your brokerage account;
- your real holdings (portfolio features are coming in V2);
- your bank account or credit data;
- any data not explicitly listed above.
3. How the AI Makes Decisions
Bullynx uses large language models (LLMs) operated by our AI provider, accessed via API. These are general-purpose language models — not proprietary trading algorithms. When you send a message, the system:
- checks your usage quota;
- retrieves relevant memory facts (by semantic similarity to your message);
- optionally fetches live market data if your question involves a ticker symbol;
- constructs a prompt containing your message, context, and instructions;
- sends the prompt to the LLM;
- receives the response, appends a disclaimer if the response mentions financial instruments, and returns it to you.
There is no proprietary “black box” algorithm making investment recommendations. The LLM produces text responses based on its training data and the context we provide.
4. What the AI Cannot Do
The AI cannot:
- execute trades or place orders;
- access your brokerage, exchange, or bank accounts;
- guarantee accuracy of any analysis or market data;
- predict future price movements with certainty;
- provide tax advice;
- provide legally binding investment advice;
- store data beyond what is explicitly described in our Privacy Policy.
5. How We Prevent Harmful Outputs
We implement the following guardrails:
- The system prompt explicitly forbids the AI from using directive language (“buy”, “sell”, “you should invest”).
- Every AI response that mentions a financial instrument or trade scenario automatically includes the disclaimer: “Educational only. Not financial advice. DYOR.”
- Chart analysis outputs always include the disclaimer: “Chart analysis is for educational purposes. Past patterns do not guarantee future results.”
- All AI outputs are logged in a WORM-compliant audit log for compliance monitoring.
- The system prompt instructs the AI to acknowledge uncertainty rather than hallucinate.
6. Memory and Personalisation
Bullynx extracts structured facts from your conversations to improve future responses (for example: “prefers dividend stocks”, “has 5 years of trading experience”). These facts are stored in your account and retrieved contextually when relevant to your current question.
You can delete all stored memory by deleting your account. Memory is used solely to improve the relevance of AI responses — not to profile you for advertising or third-party data sharing.
7. AI Provider and Limitations
The AI models used by Bullynx are operated by a third-party AI provider. Specific model information is listed in our Privacy Policy under Subprocessors. The provider’s service is subject to their terms, availability guarantees, and potential changes.
If the AI provider experiences an outage, the AI features of Bullynx will be unavailable. We do not use your data to train AI models. Our agreement with our AI provider includes contractual prohibitions on using customer data for model training.
8. Opt-Out and Data Deletion
You can stop using the AI features at any time. To delete all your data (conversations, memory, profile, analyses), delete your account from account settings. All personal data is deleted within 30 days of account deletion, except anonymised billing records which are retained for fraud prevention as described in our Privacy Policy.
