USE CASE

Alternative Data for Quant Models, Refreshed Daily

Your quant models need new market data, financial news, or alternative-data signal. The good sources are protected by Kasada or AWS WAF and the model is quietly running on stale features.

The Problem

  • Major financial-news sources sit behind Kasada with proof-of-work
  • Market-data portals deploy AWS WAF on the public quote endpoints
  • Useful alternative-data signal is gated behind WAF challenges
  • Quant models are training and trading on features that are days stale

With MeshPrivacy

  • Reach Kasada-protected financial-news inventory at scale
  • Resolve AWS WAF token challenges from the API surface
  • Refresh alternative-data features for models on a daily cadence
  • Aggregate real-time public market data without per-source brittleness
