Where to start

Use an AI Agent when available. It connects the development, execution, and analysis workflow in one conversation. Follow AI Agent setup.

For built-in assistance from Standard, start with the AI Assistant in the Job Editor, then use it to analyze your backtest. Without a MesoSim plan, start with the free hosted assistant.

From an idea to the next experiment

Describe your idea and let the AI help turn it into a Strategy Definition: the rules MesoSim uses to run a backtest. Review the proposed settings, validate the definition, and inspect the completed results.

Preserve a baseline and change one thing at a time. Cloning is the main way to iterate in the Portal; with an agent, ask for a new run that preserves the original. The Backtesting guide and Backtest Results explain these steps.

Automate and extend

Use API Access to connect your own scripts and tools. The agent guide handles plugin setup; the API guide covers keys, requests, and result retrieval.
