For prop-firm challenge traders
Most challenges are lost on drawdown, not on the target.
Challenge Pilote rules on the trade before you place it. Three answers only: Clear, Reduce, or Stand down.
It never tells you what to trade. Only how much, and whether now is allowed at all.
The product opens soon. This page collects nothing: no email field, no card, no waitlist.
Example Verdict
14:32 UTC
0.62 lots
0.50% ($500) instead of 1.40% ($1,400)
Remaining drawdown
2.4% ($2,400)
Remaining daily loss
1.2% ($1,200)
Three consecutive losses. Your plan caps risk at 0.50% until the next win.

The evaluation is expensive. The profit target is not what kills it.

Traders do not blow challenges because the strategy is wrong.
They risk 1.0% four times in a row, then 3.0% once to make it back.
It is 14:00 on a Wednesday, and the daily loss limit is 0.4% away.
Where accounts die
On drawdown and daily-loss breaches, not on the profit target. The published firm breakdowns are unambiguous.
And in the ten seconds that decide the challenge, nothing in the trader's stack has an opinion about size.
Your tools grade the trade. None of them refuse it.
Post-trade journals
They grade what you already destroyed, and charge $29 to $59 every month to do it.
Risk-dashboard tools
They know the account and nothing about the person: no written plan, no history, no opinion.
Under 2 minutes to your first Verdict.
01
Flight Plan
Your firm's rules and your own, written once while you are calm.
FTMO, FundedNext, The5ers, Funding Pips, Alpha Capital, E8, MyFundedFX, Topstep and Apex come preloaded. Every value is yours to override.
02
Pre-Flight Check
Five fields, under 15 seconds: instrument, direction, entry, stop, intended size.
A ritual before the click, not a dashboard you visit on Sunday. Keyboard only, no dropdown hunting.
03
Verdict
The most restrictive of three rule sets wins: the firm, your plan, our floor.
The size in lots, in money and in percent, the two margins that remain, and one sentence of reason. Arithmetic, not a language model.
Three answers, and no fourth.
Take it at the size you typed. Both margins hold if this one loses.
Your size breaks a limit. Here is the size that does not.
Not this one. The rule that fired, and the number behind it.
Mode — set by the engine, not by you
You do not choose the Mode. Your own numbers choose it, and the app tells you which one you are in.
Discipline Pause
Three consecutive losses. Your plan stops here.
Checks resume at 21:00 UTC
The only way past is to type why you are overriding. It is recorded, timestamped and scored against you.
A journal can be ignored. A locked door at the moment of tilt is what traders will pay to have.
It keeps what you intended, not only what filled.
Every Verdict, every size accepted, every Override with the reason you typed. No journal holds that.
Each session ends with a Session Close. Each week with a review. Each challenge with a Challenge Report: rule compliance, plan compliance, the costliest mistakes, the Discipline Score curve.
Remaining drawdown against limits
Illustration
A checklist, not advice.
A pilot's checklist is not a suggestion. It is a gate you pass or you do not.
No view on the market.
We do not know where price is going, and we never pretend to. No signals, no entries.
Auditable arithmetic.
Every refusal arrives with the number that caused it, and no apology attached.
A door you locked in advance.
You set the limits while calm. Challenge Pilote holds them while you are not.
Paid once. No subscription.
Challenge Pass
$39
One challenge account, from purchase until it passes or breaches.
About 8.0% of the $540 evaluation it defends. Insurance arithmetic, not a purchase decision.

$199
Unlimited challenge accounts, forever.
The move after a second attempt, when the pattern is obvious and already paid for once.
Free for the first 3 days at launch: full product, email only, no card.
