What Trident Global does

Trident Global, LLC is a privately held, women-owned financial software development firm founded in 2008 and headquartered at 99 Wall Street in New York, with additional offices in Puerto Rico and a back-end development center in Pune, India. The firm builds bespoke and productized technology for capital markets — spanning customized trading systems, FIX connectivity, risk aggregation, data management, robo-advisory, and digital-asset infrastructure — and serves wealth management firms, trading and investment desks, major exchanges, and energy and commodities counterparties across the US, Europe, South America, Singapore, and Hong Kong.

Its product surface includes the Alpha News Aggregator (monitoring 200+ sites and 150+ Twitter accounts), the Alpha Twitter Aggregator (marketed as faster-than-Bloomberg social filtering), Trident FIX (embedded FIX protocol connectivity with ICE routing and clearing-house position integration), Alpha Robo Advisor (algorithmic asset allocation across multiple asset classes), Crypto Investment Platforms (bitcoin and digital-asset SMAs), NFT Products (marketplace and smart-contract development), and a Wealth Management Application reported to administer $1B in client assets. Service lines — Consulting, Portfolio and Trading Partnership, and Operations and Implementation — provide custom system builds across equities, fixed income, energy/oil, crypto, and investment banking workflows.

Trident generates revenue primarily through bespoke software development projects and professional services engagements, supplemented by one-time licenses for its productized offerings, with pricing conducted via quote-based enterprise engagements rather than public rate cards. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting elite financial institutions, supported by a global delivery model that enables 24/7 development and support coverage.
