# Business plan **Doble D** — Investment platform where AI agents trade 24/7 under strict risk limits, with every trade visible to the client.
## 1. Summary Doble D is an investment platform where a fleet of AI agents trades the user's capital 24/7 under hard risk limits (5% per trade, 10% exposed, no leverage), with a log for every trade, a protection fund, and fees charged only on profits. > Your money, working with artificial intelligence. ## 2. Problem - Investing in Mexico is still for the few: ~1% of the population invests, and most of the 22 M open investment accounts are empty. - Automated quantitative strategies exist only for institutional funds; retail savers have no access. - Investment apps show balances but don't explain what is done with the money or why. ## 3. Solution and product - Invite-only sign-up with Google or email code, identity verification (Menteia's in-house KYC engine) and two-factor authentication. - Deposits via SPEI (Mexico's interbank transfer), card (Mercado Pago, from US$5) or USDC. - AI agents trade within programmed risk limits; the user sees every trade and, on the Black plan, the agent's reasoning. - 20% of every profit goes into a protection fund; withdrawals to a bank (≤72 h) or Binance with 2FA. - CFDI 4.0 (Mexican e-invoice), proof of source of funds, and annual account statement. ### Technology - Next.js + React front end, Postgres; own server behind Caddy. - In-house fleet of trading agents (Colibrí project) with deterministic risk control. - OpenAI and Claude LLMs for analysis and explanations; Mercado Pago, OneSignal and Google Auth. - Double-entry ledger and per-trade log. ## 4. Market | Level | Annual size | How it is calculated | | --- | --- | --- | | TAM | US$60 M | ~3 M Mexicans with funded investment accounts × US$20/year revenue per user | | SAM | US$9 M | 15% digital, upper-middle-income users willing to use automated strategies | | SOM | US$300k | 15k active users (0.5% of TAM) in 36 months | **Supporting data:** - 22 M investment accounts open, the vast majority unfunded (CNBV via El CEO, Nov-2025). - CetesDirecto manages over US$12 B with an average balance of ~US$4k (Expansión, Aug-2026). - Nu Mexico is approaching 14 M customers (DPL News, Feb-2026): Mexican users already adopt 100% digital finance. - ENIF 2024 (national financial inclusion survey): about 1% of the population invests. *Market figures are estimates based on public sources; validate them before sending to institutional funds.* ## 5. Target customer - Digital professionals aged 25–45 with US$500–27,000 in savings who don't invest for lack of time or knowledge. - CetesDirecto, GBM or Nu users looking for higher returns with capped risk. - Mexican crypto community holding USDC that wants returns with clear rules. ## 6. Business model and pricing Performance fee on realized profits (with high-water mark: charged only on new highs) plus subscription plans that lower the fee. Additional revenue from referrals and, later, from licensing the infrastructure. | Item | Price | | --- | --- | | Gold plan | 50% of profits, no fixed fee | | Platinum plan | 40% of profits | | Black plan | 30% of profits + visible agent reasoning | | Protection fund | 20% of every profit set aside for the client | | Referrals | 5% of the referred user's profits for 3 months (acquisition cost) | ## 7. Go-to-market strategy - Invite-only pilot with our own community (current). - Referral program as the main acquisition engine (low CAC). - Educational content and audited, transparent results as social proof. - Partnership with a regulated entity (broker-dealer, investment adviser or fintech institution/ITF) to scale compliantly. ## 8. Competition and positioning | Alternative | What it offers | Our advantage | | --- | --- | --- | | GBM / Bursanet | Stock brokerage; the user decides | Automated AI management with risk limits | | CetesDirecto / Nu | Low-yield fixed income | Active strategies with capped risk | | Robo-advisors (Fiduz, Finamex) | Passive portfolios by profile | Agents trading 24/7 with visible reasoning | | Crypto bots | Opaque, no risk control | Hard rules, trade log and protection fund | ## 9. Defensible advantages - Programmed risk, not discretionary: per-trade and exposure limits the agent cannot override. - Radical transparency: every trade and its reasoning are visible to the client. - Aligned incentives: Doble D only earns when the client earns (performance fee with high-water mark). - In-house trading and KYC infrastructure, reused from other Menteia products (low marginal cost). ## 10. Traction - Pilot launched in September 2026; ~60 active users in 2 months (95 funded accounts on the public dashboard as of 26-Oct-2026). - 483 trades closed by the agent fleet; 51% winners. - Platform live: sign-up, KYC, SPEI/card/USDC deposits, withdrawals and e-invoicing. ## 11.
