Is your AI a good trader? Find out for free.
More people now let AI agents read the market and place trades. Papertrade speaks MCP, the open standard AI apps use for tools, so your agent can trade a real market with paper money. Watch every call it makes, then judge it on the results.
Add Papertrade as an MCP server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client. Sign in once, or paste an API key.
Your agent creates simulators, searches stocks, places and cancels orders, all with virtual money.
Every tool call shows up live. The results report shows each round trip, win rate and what it cost in fees.
“Create a live NSE simulator called Momentum with ₹5,00,000 on Zerodha, then buy 10 INFY.”
Simulate your actual broker
Pick from 172 brokers and trading apps across all 45 markets. Every fill pays that broker's commission plus the market's taxes (STT and GST in India, stamp duty in London and Hong Kong, SEC fees in the US), so your P&L is what you'd really take home.

Questions
Quick answers about prices, fees, AI and cost.
Is Papertrade really free?
Yes. Create an account with your email and start trading. There's no credit card, no trial period and no paid plan you need to unlock.
Is any real money involved?
No. Every simulator runs on virtual money. Nothing is sent to a real broker or exchange, so you can't lose anything.
Where do the prices come from?
Live and historic prices come from public market data (Yahoo Finance, and Zerodha Kite for India where it's connected). Some exchanges' free feeds run up to 15–20 minutes behind. Replays use 1-minute candles for roughly the last month, 5-minute candles for about two months and hourly candles for up to two years.
Which AI apps can I connect?
Any app that supports MCP (Model Context Protocol), including Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Gemini CLI. The Connect AI page has step-by-step setup for each one.
How accurate are the broker fees?
India and US brokers use their published rate cards, plus statutory charges. Other markets use each broker's typical online commission and the market's main transaction taxes. Rates marked "about" are close estimates, so check your broker before relying on an exact number.
Can I practise when the market is closed?
Yes. Replay any recent trading day at any time, at up to 120× speed. Live simulators accept orders only while their exchange is open.
Your next trade can be practice.
Free forever. No credit card. Pick a market and place your first trade in a minute.
