Sókn Engineering, a Montana-based software company, is disrupting the algorithmic trading sector with proprietary predictive analytics models tailored for commodity and financial instrument trading. Sókn Engineering’s technology is designed to address market inefficiencies, with a potential for strong performance based on early results, though outcomes may vary. Sókn Engineering is committed to becoming a trailblazer in the industry and is currently expanding its team. The company is automating its software with emerging AI/ML models that can potentially surpass the limitations of traditional approaches.
Sókn Engineering was founded by Cassie Monaco and Stacy Lawrence, two successful female entrepreneurs experienced in finance and medical technology. While neither of these visionaries had experience in the tech world, they both recognized an opportunity to drive impact and innovate outdated industry techniques. In Sókn Engineering’s mission to evolve its platform, the company has developed a robust, resilient, and determinate technology, driving large, modular mathematical models.
Unlike traditional players in the market, Sókn Engineering is going against emerging trends. The company has a heavy math focus and leverages determinant mathematics to spearhead more accurate results. Rather than examining the market from a macro perspective with quantitative models, Sókn Engineering’s modeling systems use quantum-quantitative models to identify price pressures and adjust the algorithm accordingly. The company’s technology is designed to mitigate the impact of geopolitical events and market volatility, though external factors may still affect performance. As AI and ML are integrated, Sókn’s models will become self-learning and self-generating. This unique capability aims to accelerate trading predictions for commodities and virtually any asset class.
Sókn is preparing to launch the HyperFund Engine platform this fall, which leverages AI/ML models. This platform aims to enhance trading efficiency and provide new tools for investors, though results are not guaranteed.
The company is deeply passionate about uncovering excellent predictive systems for commodity trading. However, Sókn Engineering’s roots run much deeper than finance. The mission-driven company is committed to creating opportunities for and fostering innovation by supporting women’s entrance to STEM. Sókn Engineering offers annual scholarships for local high school girls interested in pursuing a career in the field. The startup’s determination to increase diversity in STEM is addressing an ongoing problem. Young people globally have lacked STEM skills for many years due to inaccessible youth curricula. Additionally, the perceived difficulty of these careers has many young people avoiding STEM despite their interest in it. By providing young girls a pathway into STEM, Sókn Engineering is leveling the playing field.
“Sókn Engineering, which means to ‘seek and pursue knowledge,’ is pioneering revolutionary mathematical models that generate social impact,” says CEO Cassie Monaco. An independent audit indicated positive ROI over five and a half months. The company’s approach to commodity trading represents a new era for the industry.”
Sókn Engineering is building its legacy in the algorithmic trading space rapidly, but remaining committed to technical excellence. The company is excited to champion new solutions that uplift women in STEM.
