About Everesteer Everesteer is an agentic hedge fund platform for users to build strategies in financial markets utilising frontier artificial intelligence models. Participants train models on hedge fund quality financial datasets, submit forecasts across global markets, and are scored on realised outcomes.
The Everesteer platform includes hosted compute, research tooling and a live leaderboard, so participants can go from first idea to scored submission in a single session. Everesteer was founded by the team behind EverestQuant, a London, UK based multi-strategy quant hedge fund with circa $130m of Assets Under Management.
The team combines expertise in quantitative finance, mathematics and machine learning, and works across a London HQ and a Budapest Quant Research office. Our name comes from our founder Marton Peter Price, who is a hobby mountaineer and climbed Mount Everest in 2023.
