Here's a start.

Designed for safety
Stay in complete control.
Always.
Agents run on the same financial-grade infrastructure that protects your account.
Every action stays within your authenticated brokerage environment.
Refine the details
Our AI evaluates your instructions and asks what's missing—like account, size, or timing—before it builds out your proposed Agent workflow for review.
Approve the workflow
Every Agent requires your explicit sign-off before running. You can review the proposed workflow, adjust any parameter, and activate it when ready.
Revisit at any time
You maintain complete control over your Agent workflows at all times. You can pause their operations, make edits, or shut them down entirely.
Rules-based AI
Agents only do what you explicitly tell them to do.
Once you activate your Agent, it executes your workflow exactly as defined—
monitoring market conditions and only acting when your criteria are met.
Activity feed
Your Agents maintain a running log of every action they take, with added context when a condition was checked and didn't meet your criteria.
Transaction history
Every Agent retains a complete ledger of the trades it executes. Expand any transaction for the full order details—account, status, price, quantity.
Research
Research assets, analyze your
holdings, and model trades.
Agents aren't just for automating trades. You can use them to research the markets, analyze your portfolio, and even walk through trading scenarios.
Investment analysis
Have a question about an asset or the markets? Your Agents can access 30 years of earnings, financials, and price data, plus real-time information.
Portfolio insights
Because Agents are wired to your portfolio, they can provide insights about your actual holdings—from historical performance to current exposure.
Trade planning
Agents can walk you through potential trades. Explore how different scenarios might perform, your potential risk, and when you'd want to exit.
Public is the world’s first
Agentic Brokerage
Unlike other investing platforms, we designed our Agents experience to live entirely within your authenticated account—no third-party platforms.
No third-party platforms
You don't have to generate API keys or connect to a third-party platform. Your Agents monitor the markets and execute trades directly in your account.
Real-time market data
Agents on Public are connected directly to live market data, analyzing real-time pricing and volume across stocks, ETFs, options, and crypto.
Instant order execution
Because your Agent lives inside your portfolio, it can execute as soon as your criteria are met. No waiting for an external system to send the trade.
Invest with Agents.
Only on Public.

What is an agentic brokerage?
An agentic brokerage is a trading platform that goes beyond order execution to actively act on your behalf. Instead of clicking buttons to place trades, you define intent—conditions, triggers, and strategies—and the platform’s AI agents carry those intentions out continuously. Public is building the first agentic brokerage, where your portfolio responds to the market as you’ve defined, not just as you’ve clicked.
What is an AI investing agent?
An AI investing agent is software that monitors market conditions and executes trades or account actions on your behalf—automatically—based on rules and criteria you define. On Public, you describe what you want to happen in plain language (for example, “If VIX hits 25, buy a put on the S&P 500”) and the Agent handles monitoring, decision-making, and execution without requiring you to watch the market manually.
What can I automate with Agents on Public?
On Public, you can automate everything from trading strategies to money movement. That includes conditional trades across stocks, options, and crypto, multi-leg options strategies, cash sweeps into yield accounts, and risk management actions such as stop-losses and hedging.
Is automated investing safe?
Agents on Public are designed with transparency, security, and control at their core. Every action your Agent takes is visible in your activity feed and transaction history. Agents run within our infrastructure using real-time market data and secure brokerage systems, not third-party connections. And importantly, you approve every Agent before it goes live—and can edit, pause, or stop it at any time.
Do I need to know how to code to use Agents for trading on Public?
No, you do not need to know how to code to use Agents for trading on Public. Instead of manually monitoring the markets and executing your own trades, you can now build Agents that take action for you with simple prompts. You just describe what you want to do, and our AI proposes an Agent workflow based on your intent.
Can Agents trade options and crypto, or just stocks?
Yes. Agents on Public support trading across stocks, options, and crypto. That includes multi-leg options strategies, automated execution of conditional options trades, and crypto positions—all managed within the same Agent framework.
