agents need a durable standard
The hard part is not getting another opinion. It is keeping a stable standard while information, markets, and agents change around you.
An agent can research and reason with you. Without a persistent strategy, each session can start from different assumptions and drift toward the idea in front of it.
Kova keeps the strategy versioned and measurable. Your agents get the same context without becoming the source of your rules.
THE OBVIOUS OPTIONS
A spreadsheet can store targets and formulas. It still leaves versioning, interpretation, and each alignment decision to you. Every agent session needs the rules copied back in, and the sheet cannot explain what a conflict means in context.
| A | B | C | D | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ticker | Target | Current | Drift |
| 2 | VOO | 40.0% | 41.2% | +1.2% |
| 3 | QQQ | 30.0% | 28.8% | -1.2% |
| 4 | IBIT | 20.0% | 22.4% | +2.4% |
| 5 | =IF(ABS(D2)>5,"rebalance","ok") | |||
A one-off AI session can reason with you in the moment. It is not a durable system of record for your strategy, its versions, or your alignment history. The model can help you think. It should not silently become the standard it is evaluating.
A spreadsheet stores data. A chat can reason. Kova keeps your strategy persistent.
Neither gives you one place where your strategy lives, one score that measures drift, and one brief format you can compare over time.

the missing layer
Kova is the missing layer between an agent and your capital. Your strategy lives here: versioned, persistent, and measurable.
Send your holdings. Get a brief. Connect the agents you already use, but keep one source of truth for the rules that matter. The point is not more commentary. It is continuity, accountability, and a clear permission boundary.
