Ultramarin

Ultramarin builds AI forecast models for global equity markets and sells their output to professional investors in Germany. Investors can buy it as active ETFs, including AI Enhanced Eurozone Equities and AI Enhanced US Equities, as public funds such as AI Global Opportunities, AI Navigator and the WWK KI Alpha funds, or as specialty funds and structured products built for an institution.

Ultrascope gives API access to its AI equity research on more than 2,000 companies worldwide. The models combine fundamental and behavioral data, and a proprietary Fast and Slow model, inspired by Daniel Kahneman's dual process theory, steers tactical equity allocation.

Ultramarin Capital GmbH in Munich is supervised by BaFin and the Deutsche Bundesbank. The company has offices in Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt am Main and is based in Berlin.

Capability Axes

Capability grades

15 of 15 axes rated · 5 graded A or B

AI Capability
AI Centrality
AA on AI CentralityThe artificial intelligence is the product. Remove the models and there is nothing left to sell.
Vendor Published

Stock selection, tactical allocation and risk overlays are all driven by machine learning, aimed at relationships that traditional econometric models miss.

Autonomy and Oversight Model
CC on Autonomy and Oversight ModelAutonomy is claimed and oversight is asserted without a mechanism, or full automation is presented as the entire disclosure. Human in the loop appears as a phrase rather than a described control.
Vendor Published

Research is fully systematic and runs around the clock, with no human checkpoint, override or intervention threshold described for portfolio construction or trading.

Model Risk Management and Transparency
CC on Model Risk Management and TransparencyTransparency is claimed in general terms with no mechanism a model validator could interrogate.
Vendor Published

Forecasts are promised to be transparent, and the Fast and Slow allocation model borrows from Daniel Kahneman's dual process theory. A validator still gets no sample explanation, backtest or performance attribution to test.

Operational and Outcome Evidence
BB on Operational and Outcome EvidenceVendor aggregate claims with real figures, or audited scale disclosures from a publicly listed company.
Vendor Published

Live active ETFs and public funds carry the strategies, the WWK KI Alpha funds among them. Assets, flows and performance figures aren't given for any of them.

AI Safety and Data Stewardship
CC on AI Safety and Data StewardshipGeneral assurances that do not answer the question this axis asks, which is whether one customer’s data trains models serving its competitors. Unbounded cross client learning stated with no boundary grades here too.
Vendor Published

The same models run Ultramarin's own funds and feed Ultrascope, and nothing says whether research clients see a signal before or after the funds trade on it.

Regulatory and Compliance
GLBA and Data Privacy Posture
BB on GLBA and Data Privacy PostureA substantive privacy document that reaches the product itself, short of the subprocessor list or the full data handling detail.
Vendor Published

Market data and company fundamentals drive the products rather than consumer data, so what needs protecting is a client's mandate and holdings.

Security Certifications and Trust Center
CC on Security Certifications and Trust CenterA single footer line, or certifications asserted without being enumerated, which is weaker than naming them because it invites an assumption a buyer cannot check.
Vendor Published

Operational and outsourcing rules from BaFin apply to the supervised entity, but no security certification, audit report or trust center is published.

Regulatory Status and Licensure
AA on Regulatory Status and LicensureThe regulatory position is stated and a formal admission process stands behind it: a register entry, an eCBSV enrollment, a payment network partner admission, or presence inside SAR or CTR filing paths.
Vendor Published

BaFin supervises Ultramarin Capital GmbH in Munich under ID 10162915, with the Deutsche Bundesbank also named, and Ultramarin publishes an SFDR disclosure page.

AI Governance and Bias Disclosure
CC on AI Governance and Bias DisclosureResponsible artificial intelligence committed to in policy language with no evaluation behind it, on a product whose bias surface is modest.
Vendor Published

Removing human bias is part of the pitch, but model bias can take its place, and testing for factor concentration or crowding isn't described.

AI Liability and Recourse
CC on AI Liability and RecourseMechanisms that enable challenge, such as audit trails and source traceability, with nothing standing behind the output and no route for the person affected.
Vendor Published

Fund investors are protected by fund regulation, but that protection belongs to the licensed business, and a research client acting on a wrong Ultrascope forecast has no published remedy.

Integration and Deployment
Model Supply Chain Disclosure
CC on Model Supply Chain DisclosureThe architecture is described and no provider is named.
Vendor Published

In house models draw on fundamentals and behavioral economics data, while the data vendors and the host go unnamed.

Core Systems and Integration Depth
CC on Core Systems and Integration DepthIntegration claimed through standards or connectors with no system named and nothing to verify.
Vendor Published

A modern API is offered for Ultrascope, yet no documentation is linked and no custodian or order management system is named.

Deployment Model and Data Residency
CC on Deployment Model and Data ResidencyCloud only with nothing stated, which is the category norm.
Vendor Published

Offices in Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt say nothing about where Ultrascope and client data are hosted, and no provider or region is given.

Commercial
Commercial Transparency
CC on Commercial TransparencyNo price is published and engagement runs through a demo form, which is the norm in this index.
Vendor Published

Ultrascope has no published price, and fund fees sit in each fund's own documents rather than on the site.

Institution and Segment Coverage
BB on Institution and Segment CoverageNamed segments with dedicated material behind part of the coverage.
Vendor Published

Professional investors in Germany are the audience, and every product, from active ETFs to structured products and API research, sits in global equities.

Head to Head

Compared With

Most editorial comparisons pair two vendors the index assesses as direct competitors for the same buyer. Some pair vendors that are adjacent rather than rival, where the useful question is where one ends and the other begins. Each carries a verdict, the buyer conditions that favor each vendor, and a graded side by side.
