What if your market view was clean, aligned, and already prepped before you logged in?

Sparta gets you there. With 3 things that transform your desk.

Clarity

Everything that matters to your trade: cleaned up, structured, and surfaced in real time. No manual drag. No noise. Just clear, focused signal in a simple, intuitive interface.

Control

Overwrite values, apply custom formulas, and run your own assumptions directly into live pricing. Tailor dashboards and curves around your exposures, region, and strategy.

Collaboration

One source of truth for your whole desk. Same data, same curve, same logic, shared live across the team, with updates visible instantly to everyone.

You should be trading, not chasing numbers

You should have one live view, not seven spreadsheets. Here’s the difference Sparta makes.

Without Sparta

  • Everyone working off different numbers
  • Time wasted hunting for prices and rechecking logic
  • Manual updates, email chains, messy spreadsheets
  • 7 spreadsheets. 12 tabs. ICE. Email. WhatsApp.
  • Too much noise, not enough context
  • Your desk stuck prepping data instead of acting on it

With Sparta

  • Everyone collaborating on one live, shared view
  • Prices, curves, and logic all structured and ready to use
  • Live data, auto-updated in Excel, your dashboards, mobile, wherever you work
  • One platform. One source of truth.
  • Curated insight. Clear signals. Instant “why it moved”
  • Your desk working from the same live data, moving with speed and conviction
