Egbert exists because most automation tools either stop at research or jump too quickly into a control panel. A novice needs something in between: a way to learn the process, understand the risk, and still keep the important details visible.
Background
Barg Labs emerged from a practical question: how do you turn a trading idea into a live strategy without manually stitching together strategy research, risk controls, broker setup, and monitoring?
The answer was not to hide more of the system. It was to make the flow clearer. Egbert is meant to show users where they are, what happens next, and when they are crossing into more sensitive steps like credential storage or live execution.
The public site now reflects that more directly. Use the strategy demo while you are still learning. Start broker setup only when you want Egbert to store encrypted credentials and continue into the private workflow.
Risk limits, operating boundaries, and kill-switch behavior are part of the product model from the beginning, not added later.
The public funnel should explain what happens next instead of bouncing users between pages that feel unrelated.
Early deployment is hands-on by design, especially when moving from generated strategy ideas into broker-connected execution.
