Consumer app turning investor views into backtestable rules-based portfolios

Volaren is a New York consumer investing app from Y Combinator's Fall 2026 batch in which AI agents value listed companies and follow disclosed trades of prominent investors and members of Congress. Users convert their views into rules-based portfolios that can be backtested, then tracked on paper or funded with real money.
