The moment of truth

S2N spotlight

The moment of truth has arrived.

After the last six months of building, while still trying and mostly failing to keep up a daily newsletter, I’m finally ready to share what I’ve been working on.

Six months isn’t a long time.
But the software I’ve built is the result of a lifetime of thinking and doing.

For more than fourteen years, my focus hasn’t changed. My work has always been about helping traders and investors recognise what good performance actually looks like, beneath the sales language, the technical theatre, and the quiet self-deception.

That’s what I’ve always meant by signal to noise, or S2N.

I don’t want to spend this letter listing features or selling the Navigator in abstract terms. The website and the platform itself can do that better than I can. I’ve poured a lot of effort into the Learn section, and it’s only the beginning.

I also recorded a short video to introduce the platform on the home page. It took 35 takes and gave me a whole new respect for people who can stare into a camera and sound effortless while saying very little. Respect.

What I do want to talk about today is the vision, because this is more than a product.

S2N Navigator is a data layer, an operating system, and a way of thinking about markets, all rolled into one.

Before I go further, some context. I’ve started companies. I’ve grown them. I’ve sold them. I’ve also failed. This isn’t my first rodeo.

What is different this time is scope and speed.

With experience, an unreasonable amount of time, a very patient wife, and the leverage of modern AI tools, I’ve been able to build something alone that would once have required a team and serious capital. This is not a side project. It’s a framework built from hard-won lessons.

Navigator is for people willing to learn and willing to hear uncomfortable truths.

At its core is a scoring system that doesn’t flatter. It doesn’t tell you what you want to hear. It reflects reality as cleanly as possible. But tools alone are never enough. What I’ve built is a framework with memory, one that learns not just from success but from mistakes, drawdowns, and false confidence.

Markets teach through consequence. Navigator is designed to remember those lessons when humans forget or turn a blind eye.

Today’s beta launch is intentionally small, starting with this newsletter community.

There will be bugs. Hopefully not an infestation. What matters is learning quickly and honestly. If you try it, I want the good, the bad, and the ugly.
