Detect third party trading before the payout.
Bots, trade copiers and paid account managers rarely break a rule. Rubi puts the account holder in front of an AI interviewer, on webcam and full screen, and checks every answer against how the account really traded.
Clean trades, placed by someone else.
Third party trading means the account holder does not trade alone: an EA or bot, a signal service, a trade copier or a paid manager places the orders. Your rule engine sees valid trades, and the payout goes to someone who never traded.

Machine speed
Several orders on one symbol within seconds, faster than a person can click.
- 02
Hours that do not fit
Trades land while the trader says they are at their day job or asleep.

A stranger to the account
Wrong trade counts, wrong markets, a one hour chart for trades held three minutes.

A method they cannot explain
Names like ICT or SMC, but no clear account of the one concept they use most.
Questions a bot cannot answer.

Ask sideways
Rubi never asks whether a bot trades the account. It asks about pace, hours, markets and method, in the trader's language, and follows up on anything vague.
- 2
Check against the data
Answers are compared with trades synced from Axcera or your API. When a trader says three trades a day and the account shows twenty five, Rubi asks about it.

Record the room
Webcam and entire screen on one clock, an attestation that they are alone, and integrity events such as pasted answers or a stopped screen share.

Illustrative report excerpt.
Third party trading, answered.
What counts as third party trading at a prop firm?
Any trading the account holder does not do alone: an EA or bot, a signal service, a trade copier, an account manager or another person placing the orders. Rubi reports it as one of three concern verdicts, each clear, suspected or likely.
Can a trader beat the interview with rehearsed answers?
Rehearsed answers rarely survive the account's own data. Rubi never asks outright about bots or copiers. It asks about pace, hours and method, then follows up with the real numbers when an answer does not match the trades.
Does Rubi reject traders automatically?
No. Rubi recommends a step and shows the evidence behind it. Your analyst makes and records the decision, and that feedback calibrates future reports for your firm only.
