FAQ
About EntropyX Labs
What does EntropyX Labs do?
EntropyX Labs is a software company that builds AI-native products for brokers, prop firms, fintechs, trading desks and professional firms: an AI trading co-pilot, secure self-hosted chat, MT5 execution and copy trading, a stablecoin payment gateway, brokerage CRM, support desk, compliance tooling and custom development.
Who are your products for?
Regulated and operations-heavy businesses: forex and CFD brokers, prop trading firms, fintechs and crypto-native payment businesses, trading desks and funds, and chartered accountant and company secretary firms.
Are you a broker, exchange or investment adviser?
No. EntropyX Labs is a technology provider. We do not hold client funds, execute trades for the public, provide investment advice or operate regulated financial services. Our clients run our software under their own licences and obligations.
Can we self-host your products?
Yes. Every product can run on your VPC or on-premises hardware; several, such as EntropyX Chat and EntropyX PSP, are self-hosted by design. Managed cloud is available where it makes sense.
How is pricing structured?
A licence or subscription per product, a one-time setup for integration, and optional support plans. Bundles are priced together. We reply to pricing requests within one business day with a written quote.
How long does a deployment take?
From one week for CA_CS Tool or EntropyX Tickets to three to five weeks for Brokerage CRM. Most clients have a working pilot inside three weeks. Each product page lists its typical time to live.
Do you sign NDAs and support security reviews?
Yes. We sign mutual NDAs on request and complete security questionnaires. Our security page describes hosting options, encryption, access control and audit logging.
What is the research behind your products?
Two peer-reviewed papers in Entropy (MDPI, 2025) on entropy-assisted pattern identification and on tail-risk signatures in the cumulative entropic spectrum. Both methods are used in SignalDesk. A third paper, in The European Physical Journal Plus (2026), applies the entropic approach to stock markets under concentrated policy news.
Where are you based and when are you available?
EntropyX Labs Pvt Ltd is based in India and serves clients worldwide. The team is available 08:00–22:00 IST, Monday to Saturday, and replies to enquiries within one business day.
How do we get started?
Send an enquiry through the contact page or email sales@entropyxlabs.com. An engineer, not a salesperson, replies within one business day with questions and a proposed next step, usually a 30-minute working session.
Product questions
SignalDesk
product pageIs SignalDesk investment advice?
No. SignalDesk is an assistant, not an adviser. It surfaces, ranks and explains signals produced by quant tools; it does not recommend trades for any person and it does not guarantee any outcome. Your desk's own process decides what to do with the analysis.
Does SignalDesk place trades?
No. SignalDesk analyses and explains. Execution lives in separate products (FX Auto-Pilot, EA Panel) and only under rules your operator configures and approves.
Which markets does it cover?
FX, equities, indices, commodities and crypto, across 1,000+ symbols. The universe is scoped to the instruments your desk actually trades.
Can we plug in our own models or data?
Yes. Tools are modular. Your proprietary models, signals or data vendors can be registered as tools the assistant calls, with the same logging as ours.
How is SignalDesk different from an assistant built into a trading platform?
A platform assistant answers inside one vendor's terminal. SignalDesk is a standalone research layer: it calls the quant tools you enable (forecasts, entropy-based regime detectors, news shock scoring), shows the tool trace behind every answer, runs in managed cloud or your VPC, and reaches traders through MetaTrader 5, REST and WebSocket APIs, EntropyX Chat or Slack.
Where does our data live?
Either in a managed cloud tenant or fully self-hosted in your VPC. Conversation memory, logs and model access stay inside the deployment you choose.
EntropyX Chat
product pageIs EntropyX Chat end-to-end encrypted?
Traffic is encrypted in transit with TLS and data is stored on infrastructure you control. Because the server is yours, there is no third party in the path. Ask us about at-rest encryption options for your environment.
Can it run without internet access?
Yes. The platform runs on a private network or an air-gapped segment. Live translation and speech-to-text can use on-prem models when external APIs are not allowed.
Which clients are available?
Web, Windows and macOS desktop, and Android and iOS mobile. All ship from one codebase, so features arrive together.
How does onboarding work?
Admin-only. An administrator creates accounts, assigns roles and adds people to rooms. Public registration is disabled by design.
Does self-hosting satisfy recordkeeping rules on its own?
No. Self-hosting gives you control of the data; recordkeeping also needs retention, immutability and export. EntropyX Chat keeps a full audit log that auditors can read and export, with retention settings they can verify. Your compliance team still sets the retention period and the review process.
Can we connect our own systems?
Yes. Signed webhooks pipe alerts, deployments, approvals and ticket events into rooms, and bots can post from your internal tools.
Is EntropyX Chat a self-hosted Slack alternative for banks and brokers?
Yes. It runs on infrastructure you control, with admin-only onboarding, fine-grained roles, a full audit log, web, desktop and mobile clients, group video calls, bots and inline live translation, so a regulated desk gets team messaging without its records leaving the firm. The guide compares self-hosted and SaaS messaging for financial firms.
FX Auto-Pilot
product pageWho is responsible for what the engine trades?
The operator. FX Auto-Pilot executes strategies that your team registers, approves and caps. EntropyX Labs supplies the software; it does not manage money or choose strategies for you.
Can we run it in dry-run only?
Yes. Many desks use the sandbox mode alone for months to validate strategies before any live promotion.
Which brokers are supported?
Any broker with an MT5 server you hold credentials for. Ask us about MT4 or cTrader connectivity for your case.
What happens if the connection drops?
The engine detects the disconnect, stops issuing new orders, raises an alert and resumes only when the operator confirms. Open positions follow your configured fallback rules.
Is it available today?
FX Auto-Pilot is in beta with selected operators. Contact us to discuss a pilot.
EntropyX PSP
product pageDoes EntropyX Labs hold or move client funds?
No. EntropyX PSP is software that runs on your infrastructure with your wallets and keys. EntropyX Labs is a technology provider, not a payment institution, exchange or custodian.
Which stablecoins and chains are supported?
USDT on BEP20 (BNB Chain), TRC20 (Tron) and ERC20 (Ethereum), including USDTpro flows. Other assets can be added on request.
How does reconciliation work?
Confirmed on-chain transfers are matched to deposit addresses and accounts, booked to a double-entry ledger and surfaced as exceptions when anything does not match.
Can it screen addresses for sanctions or risk?
Yes. Risk hooks let you plug in an address-screening provider and set limits before a deposit is credited.
Which USDT network should a broker enable first?
Start with the network your depositors already use. TRC20 is the common retail choice because of its low fees and fast confirmations; ERC20 and BEP20 follow. EntropyX PSP runs all three at once with chain-aware address allocation, so adding a network later is configuration rather than a project.
What happens when a client sends USDT on the wrong network or underpays?
Nothing is credited automatically. Reconciliation matches confirmed transfers to deposit addresses and accounts; anything that does not match is surfaced as an exception with the on-chain details, for your operations team to resolve under your own policy.
Do you need our licence details?
You operate the PSP under your own regulatory status. We help with the technical controls your compliance team asks for; we do not provide regulated services.
Is EntropyX PSP stablecoin payment orchestration software?
Yes, for deposits and withdrawals in stablecoins. EntropyX PSP allocates chain-aware USDT addresses on BEP20, TRC20 and ERC20, watches the chains, reconciles confirmed transfers to a ledger and pushes signed webhooks to your CRM. It does not convert to fiat, move money on fiat rails or hold funds; the guide on stablecoin payment orchestration software lists all six functions.
Does EntropyX PSP handle withdrawals as well as deposits?
Yes. Crypto payments for forex brokers run both ways here: the deposit and withdrawal system is ready for any trading platform or fintech to connect through its API; deposits are watched and reconciled, withdrawals are paid out from wallets you control with keys you hold, and both are reconciled and reported to your back office. EntropyX Labs never holds funds.
Crypto Tools
product pageWhich chains are covered?
The major EVM chains, Tron and Bitcoin are covered today; coverage grows with client demand.
Is this a replacement for enterprise screening vendors?
For many small and mid-sized teams, yes for investigation and reporting. It also complements an existing screening feed by giving investigators a graph and an export.
Can reports be used as evidence?
Exports include the raw transaction references, timestamps and your annotations, so findings can be re-verified on-chain by any party.
How is Crypto Tools priced?
Per team, with usage tiers by traced volume. Ask for a quote.
Is Crypto Tools a blockchain investigation tool for compliance teams?
Yes. It traces flows across the covered chains, clusters and tags related addresses, draws the counterparty graph, flags anomalies in volumes and patterns, and exports CSV and PDF evidence an auditor or regulator can read. It sits beside enterprise screening vendors rather than replacing them, and beside EntropyX PSP for deposits and withdrawals.
Brokerage CRM
product pageWhat is a forex CRM?
A forex CRM is the system a broker uses to onboard clients, verify identity, manage accounts and funding, and give support and sales one shared record. Brokerage CRM is that layer, built for regulated brokers.
Can we migrate from our current CRM?
Yes. We import clients, documents and account links from your existing system as part of onboarding.
Does it include a traders' room?
Yes. Clients log in to manage profiles, documents, funding and support requests; your team works from the admin side.
Which platforms does it connect to?
MetaTrader 5 out of the box, with connectors for other platforms on request.
How much does a forex CRM cost?
Quote-based, like most of the market. Brokerage CRM is priced as a licence or subscription plus a one-time setup for integration and an optional support plan; bundles with EntropyX PSP or Tickets are priced together. A written quote follows a 30-minute scoping session within one business day. Market ranges are in our forex CRM guide.
Can withdrawals be blocked until KYC is complete?
Yes. Compliance rules gate funding and withdrawal actions on KYC status and risk flags that your team defines.
Does Brokerage CRM track introducing brokers and affiliates?
Yes. Partners are tracked on the same client record as the clients they refer, with tiers, rebate rules and payout tracking, so sales sees where an account came from and finance sees what is owed. Partner terms and commission schedules are yours to set. For most brokers this replaces separate forex IB software.
Is Brokerage CRM a forex back office software?
For the account side, yes: onboarding and KYC with reviewer queues, the traders' room, funding and withdrawal actions gated by compliance rules, documents, partner tracking and support context on one record. Dealing-desk operations (exposure, interventions and account operations on MT5) sit in EA Panel on the same identity layer.
Is there a mobile app for the traders' room?
The traders' room is delivered as a web application. A branded iOS and Android app for your clients is built on request as part of an engagement; ask for scope and timeline on a call.
Does it work as prop firm affiliate software?
Yes. The partner module tracks the affiliates who sell evaluations: referral attribution on the trader's record, tiers, commission rules and payout tracking, so marketing sees which partner brought each trader and finance sees what is owed. Evaluation phases, targets and payouts themselves are a challenge engine built on request on the same identity layer.
Do we need a separate affiliate platform next to the CRM?
Not for partners the CRM manages itself. Brokerage CRM records the referring IB or affiliate on the client's record at sign-up, so deposits, trading and the partner's tiers, rebates and payouts are tracked in one system, with no postbacks between two tools. If you already run an affiliate platform for paid campaigns, we connect it per engagement.
EA Panel
product pageDoes EA Panel replace the MT5 Manager terminal?
For day-to-day operations, yes. It wraps the manager functions your ops team uses in workflows with roles and logging. The terminal remains available for administrators.
Can we require approvals for sensitive actions?
Yes. Actions such as balance adjustments or account changes can require a second approver.
Is every action logged?
Yes. Who did what, when and from where, with before and after values.
Can it run alongside Brokerage CRM?
They are designed together. EA Panel handles trading operations; Brokerage CRM handles client accounts; they share identities.
Does EA Panel manage margin, leverage and swaps, or only show exposure?
Both. EA Panel shows exposure and risk in real time and runs interventions through approval workflows, and margin, leverage and swap settings on your MT5 groups can be managed through it as well, configured with your dealing desk per engagement, under the same roles, approvals and audit log.
Is EA Panel risk management software for brokers?
For monitoring and controlled action, yes: exposure and risk dashboards, caps the engine enforces, intervention workflows with approvals, role-based access and a full audit log. Risk policy, limits and the decision to intervene stay with your desk.
What does dealing desk software do, and what does EA Panel cover?
Dealing desk software lets a broker watch exposure, act on accounts and adjust trading conditions. EA Panel covers exposure and risk dashboards, interventions with approvals and, configured per engagement, margin, leverage and swap settings on MT5 groups, under roles and an audit log. Routing orders between A-book and B-book is the bridge's job; EntropyX Labs does not supply one.
EntropyX Tickets
product pageDoes it work with a CRM we already use?
Yes. Brokerage CRM is native; other CRMs connect through an API adapter that supplies the context panel.
Can AI agents draft replies?
Yes. The AI Suite's support copilot drafts responses grounded in your knowledge base and the ticket context; a human approves before sending.
How are SLAs configured?
Per queue and priority, with business hours and escalation paths you define.
Is EntropyX Tickets help desk software for forex brokers?
Yes. Queues with SLA tracking per priority, a CRM-aware context panel so the agent sees the account and not just the message, macros and templates, email, chat and web-form intake, and an audit trail per ticket and per agent. It works with Brokerage CRM or with a CRM you already use.
Web Development
product pageDo you only build for finance companies?
No. Finance is where we come from, so we are comfortable with compliance review and security questionnaires, but we build for any B2B or consumer brand.
Who owns the code?
You do. Deliverables are handed over with source, documentation and deployment scripts; terms are set in the engagement agreement.
Can you maintain the site after launch?
Yes. Most clients keep a monthly improvement cadence: content, performance, search and conversion work with a changelog.
Which platforms do you work with?
Next.js and React for custom builds; Shopify and WooCommerce for commerce; headless CMS platforms for editorial teams.
CA_CS Tool
product pageWhich countries are supported?
India (GST, TDS, MCA, ITR, PF/ESI, audit), Singapore (IRAS, ACRA, CPF), UAE (FTA VAT and Corporate Tax) and Malaysia (LHDN, SSM, SST). Each tenant is set to one country.
Can we see it before buying?
Yes. A demo environment with seeded tenants for all four countries exists; when it is online, the link and credentials appear on the product page. Otherwise book a 30-minute guided walkthrough and we will onboard a client from your country live.
How do clients receive reminders?
Through the WhatsApp Cloud API, with a click-to-send fallback and email. Every message is logged against the client.
Is there free practice management software for CA firms in India?
Yes. ICAI offers members a free cloud practice management system, and Zoho Practice is free. CA_CS Tool is for firms that need more than those cover: auto-generated calendars for India, Singapore, UAE and Malaysia, WhatsApp reminders, a proof vault, client logins and OCR. Small practices start on a flat monthly plan.
Can client owners log in?
Yes, as editors for their own company only. Auditors can be given read-only viewer access.
How is the CA_CS Tool priced?
Per firm, by number of clients and staff seats. Ask for a quote; small practices start on a flat monthly plan.
Investor CRM
product pageDoes it replace fund administration?
It complements it. Investor CRM is the relationship and reporting layer; your administrator or accounting system remains the book of record if you prefer.
Can investors see their own statements?
Yes, through a branded portal with document access and notices.
Is it suitable for a small fund?
Yes. It is used by small teams that need an auditable system without enterprise overhead.
