Falcon Terminal, our private AI software
Hardware is easy.
Falcon Terminal is why you buy the machine.
Falcon Terminal is the software that runs private AI for traders, on hardware you own. It comes installed on the Falcon AI Desk and AI Book with a model already loaded, and with the Falcon AI Enclave it goes on the computer you already use.
Built-in tools read your broker statements, review your trade journal, draft and debug your indicators, and check a trade against your own rules. You power it on, click the tool, and hand it a file. There's no setup, no prompt-writing to learn, and no command line to touch.
Available now. Built by the team that has engineered trading hardware since 2004.
Task Ecosystem
A library of skills, not a single chat box.
A skill is a job Falcon Terminal already knows how to do. You don't describe it, and you don't write a prompt to get it started. You pick the one you want, hand it the file, and read what comes back.
Skills install from any library, including your own.
The Skills Library keeps track of where every skill came from. Point Falcon Terminal at a library we publish, a private one your team maintains, or a third-party collection, and it tracks versions, checks for updates, and puts the old version back cleanly if a change doesn't work out.
- Install, update and roll back each library on its own, with a version check built into every skill.
- Route each skill to a local AI model or an AI Enclave independently, with a fallback if one isn't reachable.
- A skill that gets renamed or pulled upstream stays in your library and gets flagged, rather than disappearing on you.
- Each skill works in its own space, and asks before it installs anything or writes a file outside the job you gave it.
Tuned before it ships.
You don't have to build a library or write a prompt to get started. Every one of these runs on your own machine by default, with no upload and no account to create. Only the one that reaches outside your machine is marked, and it ships switched off.
Reviews your trade journal
Hand it a fill export, a spreadsheet, or a screenshot of your platform's log, and it finds what's hard to see from inside your own trading: the setups you cut short, the hours that lose money, and what happens to your size the day after a loss.
Reads files where they sit
Reads your broker statement
Drop one in and get the real concentration back in plain terms: which positions move together, and what one bad week in a single sector does to the account. It's the most sensitive file most traders have, and it's read where it sits.
Read on your own machine
Drafts and tests your indicator
It takes a first pass at Pine Script, NinjaScript, and thinkScript, then flags the parts it isn't confident about instead of handing back something that looks finished and isn't. These are niche languages, and AI models get them wrong in confident-sounding ways.
Compile and test everything before it runs
Checks a trade against your own rules
Write your rules down once (risk per trade, a daily drawdown cap, what has to line up before you enter, what you won't do after two losers) and walk a trade through them before you take it. It holds you to your own standard, not anyone else's.
Your rules, saved on your machine
Searches your own documents
Point it at a folder (prop-firm rulebooks, platform manuals, exchange specs, your own notes) and ask questions against all of it at once. Answers cite which document they came from, so you can check.
Indexed on your drive
Looks something up online
The one skill that reaches the internet, because there's no other way to know today's price. Switch it on and only the lookup itself goes out, a ticker, a headline search. Your files, your history, and the reasoning all stay here.
Opt-in · off until you turn it on
Beyond Trading
The same kind of assistant you're already paying for.
Underneath the trading skills is a full general-purpose assistant. Draft the email, work through the filing, think a problem out loud. You'll likely use it for that as much as for the trading work, and it costs nothing extra, because it's the same model already running on your machine.
Write and rewrite
The email to your broker, the note to your accountant, the post you keep rewriting. Draft it, tighten it, change the tone, without any of it passing through a service that keeps a copy.
Explain and summarize
A dense filing, a contract, a technical article, a concept you half-remember. Hand it over and ask for it in plain terms, then ask follow-ups until it actually makes sense.
Think out loud
Work a problem through with something that argues back, the kind of conversation you'd have with a colleague, and the record of it stays on your own drive.
No meter running
No account, no monthly bill, no message cap, no "you've reached your limit for this window." Ask it a hundred questions in an afternoon. It costs the same as asking none.
Local by Default
Nothing has to leave your own network.
Falcon Terminal sorts out its own connection when it opens. It looks for a model already running on your network, either an AI Enclave or another Falcon machine, and if nothing answers it runs one on the computer you're sitting at. No commands to type, no setup step you have to remember.
Every session works inside its own space. A skill can read and write the files you hand it, and it asks before it touches anything else. That boundary holds whether the model behind it is running on your desk or across the office in an AI Enclave.
Internet access is one visible toggle, off by default. With it off, the work stays on your own network: no telemetry, no files, no queries going out. Turn it on and two things can cross that boundary: a lookup a skill explicitly needs, and a check for a newer model. Your files, your history, and the reasoning behind either one stay right where they are.
Falcon AI Enclave
Your strategy is the one thing you don't outsource.
If you're running logic you built yourself, entry rules, position sizing, an indicator nobody else has, that's the file you'd least like to hand over. Send it through a cloud service and it sits on somebody else's servers, and on a consumer plan it's feeding their model by default. Switching that off takes about ten seconds. Getting the file back doesn't work at all.
Falcon Terminal connects to a Falcon AI Enclave the moment it finds one on your network. The Enclave holds the model and does the work, so drafting an indicator, testing a change, and running it again all happen on hardware you own.
Where We Draw the Line
Falcon Terminal analyzes. It doesn't tell you what to trade.
These skills help you understand your own trading: your history, your risk, your code, your statements. They will not produce buy or sell calls, and anything that could touch an order stays in simulation until you confirm it yourself, every time. It is the same line every brokerage draws, and it is the right one to draw.
Use both, and know which is which.
Local models aren't as capable as the frontier cloud models. They're improving constantly, and nothing stops you from moving to a newer one as soon as it earns its place. If you want the strongest answer to a general research question right now, use a cloud model. Falcon Terminal is built for the work where the file matters more than the last of the answer quality: your statements, your journal, your unpublished strategy. Use both, and be deliberate about which questions go where.
In Practice
A skill runs, asks permission, and shows its work.
You watch it work. The steps it takes, the files it opens, the reasoning behind the answer, all of it on screen as it happens rather than a spinner and a result at the end. If it needs to touch a file outside the job you gave it, it stops and asks instead of doing it quietly.
It's Just the Opening Bell
We've been here the whole time.
A hardware company writing software is a fair question. Support is one of the most common reasons traders give for choosing a Falcon, and most of those calls have nothing to do with a part that failed. Since 2004 we've supported nearly every trading platform on the market, plus the everyday tools and programs traders run alongside them. Falcon Terminal is what that taught us: software should do what you set it to do, and stay out of your way.
You control the updates. Turn update checks off entirely if you'd rather handle them yourself, or go back to an earlier version whenever you want. No update breaks your setup without warning, and no feature gets pulled out from under you.
That's the part renting can't offer. A cloud vendor can retire the model you built your workflow around, and the first you hear of it is the notice. A model on your own drive can't be taken away on a schedule you didn't choose. Not that we would. We've simply made sure it isn't an option.
This is a first release, not a finished product. We're continuing to build on it the way we've built everything else since 2004: in the open with the traders who use it, one working feature at a time.
Falcon Trading Systems founded in Laramie, Wyoming, building dedicated trading workstations.
A separate box that holds the AI model, for traders who need their models running on their own systems.
Our first software product: private AI for traders, with the skills already built.
More skills, more AI Enclave integration, and more of what traders using it ask us to build.

Before you ask support
Does my strategy or indicator code ever leave my machine?
Not by default. Falcon Terminal runs the model and the skills on your own machine. You can point it at an AI Enclave on your network instead, or at an outside AI service if you set one up yourself, but neither is needed to use it.
Does Falcon Terminal tell me what to trade?
No. The built-in skills analyze and explain: your journal, your statements, your risk, your code. They will not produce buy or sell calls, and anything that could touch a live order stays in simulation until you confirm it yourself, every time.
Can I use it for anything besides trading?
Yes. Underneath the trading skills is a full general-purpose assistant, the same model already running on your machine, at no extra cost and with no separate account.
What is the Skills Library?
It's where your skills live and how new ones get installed. Point it at a library of skills, ours, your firm's own, or one a third party publishes, and it installs them, tracks which version you're running, and lets you update or roll back each library on its own.
Can I write my own skills, or do they have to come from Falcon?
You can write your own. A skill is a folder of plain files in a documented format, kept in a git repository. If you can write one and host it, Falcon Terminal can install it, and nothing about the format requires it to come from us. Call us and we'll help you get the first one working.
What is a Falcon AI Enclave, and do I need one?
No, you don't need one. Falcon Terminal runs the model on the machine in front of you. An AI Enclave is a separate box that holds a much larger model and serves it to every machine on your network, which is what a firm, or a trader working through big documents, is usually after. Falcon Terminal finds it on the network and manages it from there.
Is Falcon Terminal available now?
Yes. It comes installed on every Falcon AI Desk and AI Book, and AI Enclave owners download it for the computer they already use. It isn't sold separately. We're continuing to build on it as we hear from the traders using it.
