The Standard Lens is a visual market analysis platform built around interconnected lenses — each lens is a node network covering a specific market, index, or asset class. Instead of reading isolated headlines, you see how macro stories, price drivers, and sentiment connect across 27 systems in one place.

What’s on the platform

• 27 lens systems — US equity indices (S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow), European markets (FTSE, DAX, CAC 40), Asian markets (Nikkei, Hang Seng), individual stocks, commodities (oil, natural gas, gold), currencies, crypto, and macro.
• Rundown summaries — an AI-generated synthesis across all nodes in a lens.
• The Lens Brief — short-form video summaries (YouTube Shorts) you can browse and search by name or date, and play directly on the platform.
• Written Archives — searchable editorial articles linked to lens topics.
• Saved lenses — save your lens view once per market day (resets at midnight in each market’s own timezone).
• Local notes — add and edit notes on individual lens nodes; reset to default any time.
• Share — share a lens view with others via a generated link.
