About

Technical Architecture: Zoonova AI Financial Intelligence Zoonova.com utilizes a multi-layered machine learning stack designed for high-frequency financial data synthesis and predictive modeling. The system architecture is anchored by a Quad-Ensemble integrating Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), XGBoost, Random Forest, and CatBoost to execute multi-horizon price and alpha forecasting. Core Technical Specifications The Quad Ensemble Layer: This ensemble calculates Price and Alpha predictions by processing over 150 features per stock. Data inputs include Factor Analysis, Regression Analysis, Statistics, Metrics, Financials, Fundamentals, Volatility, Ratios, Macro data, and Sentiment. Specialized Modeling: * Vader: Utilized for high-precision sentiment quantification across 3,000 global news and social feeds. Birch: Employed for pattern recognition and clustering across technical indicator charts, volatility, and indexes. Alpha Probability: Specifically driven by XGBoost (XGB) and CatBoost to identify non-linear relationships within the high-dimensional feature space. Gemini 3 Flash Integration: The Gemini 3 Flash API functions as the reasoning and automation layer. It facilitates high-speed data extraction and real-time LLM reasoning to enhance the interpretive depth of the data pipeline. Pipeline Maintenance: All machine learning outputs are recalculated twice daily, both pre-market and post-close. The entire model ensemble undergoes full retraining at the end of each trading week to mitigate data drift and maintain structural stability. Inference, Synthesis, and Workflow The platform employs a hierarchical prompting structure where Prompt 16 unifies the outputs of 15 prior logic chains. This delivers a comprehensive, actionable Investment Analysis containing: Scenario Modeling: Base, Bull, and Bear scenarios with associated confidence bands. Risk Quantification: Explicitly identified risk drivers and dated catalysts. Monitoring: Probabilistic price ranges and real-time anomaly detection. The integration of these specialized models with the reasoning capabilities of Gemini 3 Flash provides an institutional-grade, explainable workflow for financial analysis across web and mobile platforms.

  • Zoonova.com builds AI and machine learning solutions for financial markets, turning complex data into decision-grade insights. Our Quad Ensemble of models, Temporal Fusion Transformer, XGBoost, Random Forest, and CatBoost uses Factor Analysis, Regression, Metrics, Fundamentals, Financials, ratios, more than 200 indicators, sentiment, and LLM reasoning to spot patterns, forecast prices and alpha, quantify risk, and explain drivers. We calculate all ML outputs twice daily, before the market opens and after the close, and we retrain every model at the end of each trading week for freshness and stability. Zoonova also computes stock sentiment two times a day across about 3,000 news and social feeds, and estimates the probability of alpha with a dedicated neural network.
  • Investors can research stocks, ask the AI to create portfolios, or build and save their own, then track them in real time with rich visualizations, anomaly flags, peer comparisons, and probabilistic ranges. Prompt 16 unifies outputs from Prompts 1 to 15 into a single Investment Analysis with Base, Bull, and Bear scenarios with confidence bands, explicit drivers and risks, dated catalysts, and a clear monitoring plan. The result is a fast, explainable, and actionable workflow across web and mobile.
