AI agent for Alpaca
Connect Alpaca and your AI agent sees every holding, watches the account and explains every move. It researches what you own, suggests what to do next with the reason, and sizes every trade to your Alpaca account.
Start freeWhat connects
Alpaca connects through SnapTrade with your own Alpaca sign-in, with read access. Volaren reads your stocks, ETFs, options and crypto, and your balances, and keeps them in sync. Volaren never sees your Alpaca password or two-factor codes, and your money and shares stay at Alpaca, in your name.
What your AI agent does with Alpaca
- Sees every holding and balance, next to every other account you connect.
- Watches the account and explains what moved and why.
- Researches what you own before you ask, and sends an alert when something needs a look.
- Suggests tax-aware next steps, with losses worth harvesting checked against your other accounts.
- Brings copy trade ideas, like Nancy Pelosi’s disclosed trades and Berkshire Hathaway’s latest 13F, sized to your Alpaca account.
Placing the trades
When your AI agent suggests a trade, it shows the exact order sized to your Alpaca account, with its reason, and you place it at Alpaca. To have orders placed for you, connect an account at Webull, Public, E*TRADE, tastytrade and moomoo with trading turned on: the same AI agent trades there once you say yes, or automatically inside your limits, while it keeps watching your Alpaca account.
Want to watch an AI agent trade first? Open a Practice Alpaca account: it trades what Alpaca offers, with its own practice cash, and builds a record before any real money moves.
