SmartCharts

What SmartCharts does

SmartCharts is a privately-held, AI-powered trading and eLearning platform that targets individual retail traders ranging from beginners to experienced professionals, primarily in the UK and US markets with secondary reach into Australia and global English-speaking audiences. The company is incorporated as Smart Charts Ltd in Naxxar, Malta, with a secondary operating entity (Smart Charts Software Pty) in North Sydney, Australia, and operates with a headcount of 11–50 employees. The browser-based platform bundles proprietary AI trading modules — T-Wave (trend-based entries/exits), Patterns AI (chart-pattern detection), Swing Pro AI (momentum bias), and Stocks AI (multi-source equity analysis) — with a continuous market scanner, one-click trade execution, and an eLearning library derived from affiliated international trader training programmes that the company states have inspired 400,000+ people.

The underlying technology stack combines real-time market data ingestion with rule-based and AI-driven pattern recognition, signal generation, and trade-sizing optimization, delivered entirely through a web browser without native app installation. Revenue is generated through subscription-based recurring access on a freemium/free-trial entry model; no public pricing tiers are disclosed. Customer acquisition is product-led and self-serve, leveraging a multi-channel marketing presence (Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, email, Trustpilot) plus an affiliated 'Learn to Trade Group' / 'Lifestyle Trader' event funnel. The company reports 14,000+ traders and 5,000+ verified users on the platform, with no disclosed enterprise customers, no venture or private equity funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue, ARR, or headcount trajectory — making financial scale inferential rather than observable.
