The Firm

Your account. Our written rules.

Kairos places orders inside the brokerage account you already have and never touches the cash. You don’t need a new company to survive ten years. You need the rules to run tomorrow exactly the way they ran yesterday.

Client money held by Kairos. Your brokerage holds it, in your name.

What we do

We write the rules for when a slice of your portfolio holds the market and when it steps aside, and run them inside your own account.

  1. 01

    Decide before the pressure arrives

    Five public market checks, scored every trading day. Healthy: Nasdaq exposure. Fragile: short-term U.S. Treasury bills. The exit and the way back in are both written down in advance.
  2. 02

    Keep the money where it is

    The software places trades in your account through TradersPost. Your brokerage holds the assets and sends every statement. Disconnect it any day.
  3. 03

    Show every year

    The out-of-sample record is published year by year, including 2025, when the model made about 3% and SPY made about 18%.
Who we serve

Built for the careful investor.

Pre-retirees
Five years out is when a year like 2022 hurts most. A written exit rule before the drawdown, and a written re-entry rule after it, so nobody has to call the bottom.

Retirees drawing income
Growth that doesn’t gamble the income. When conditions break, the slice Kairos runs moves to T-bills and waits for the all-clear. One slice of the portfolio, never the whole nest egg.
Becoming a client
Busy professionals
No screens to watch and no alerts to act on. The rules decide at 3:50 PM ET, about eleven times a year, inside your own brokerage account.
Becoming a client
“When you’re inside an institution that size, you see exactly how the best money in the world is managed. You also see the wall, the one that keeps all of that away from everybody else who isn’t a pension fund or an endowment. I got tired of being inside of that wall.”
Maxwell Hines · Designed the Kairos system
Our commitments

Written down here so you can quote them back to us.

Your money stays in your name

At your brokerage. We never take custody of client money or pool it.

Every year is published

Including the one that lagged. We will never re-fit the rules to make the last bad year disappear.

Model results are called model results

We say what isn’t audited, and we never promise a return. Anyone who does is lying or breaking the law.

Twelve months to decide

Not satisfied inside 12 months? The fee you paid Kairos is refunded. No lock-up, and nothing to pay to leave.

Ask about the career, the unaudited record, and 2025, when the model made about 3% and SPY made about 18%. If we can’t explain why that happened and why it could happen again, don’t hire us.
