AI That Drives Real Trading Revenue
How a U.S. brokerage partner turned WNSTN’s AI assistant into a measurable revenue engine, with 2.3× more trades and higher retention.
Sample: 88,000+ trades
Period: 12 months
Control group: non-WNSTN users
Revenue impact: 8.4%
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Conversational engagement, converted into trades
A U.S. brokerage partner deployed WNSTN’s AI assistant across its trading platform. Users who engaged the assistant traded significantly more, converted conversations into action within 24 hours, and showed stronger retention. This translated into an estimated 8.4% contribution to the partner’s trading revenue at a 95% confidence level.
THE CHALLENGE
Engagement that a commoditized market can’t deliver
The brokerage faced a common industry problem: how to re-engage dormant users, increase trading frequency, and improve client lifetime value without adding headcount or operational complexity.
Declining trading activity among inactive users
Difficulty retaining clients in a commoditized market
No scalable way to deliver personalized engagement on demand
DATA & METHODOLOGY
How we measured it
The findings are built on raw, anonymized data provided by the broker, not survey responses or projections. The analysis was designed around a clean control group and conservative assumptions.
Sample & period
Over 88,000 trades executed by end users, collected across an engagement of approximately one year.
Dataset
Anonymized broker and WNSTN user IDs (UUIDs), including users who never used WNSTN, enabling a clear control group.
Quality scoring
Offline LLM-as-a-Judge annotations scored conversation complexity, interaction type, and answer quality.
Three mutually exclusive user segments
Non-WNSTN users
Did not interact with WNSTN (the control group).
Non-active WNSTN users
Interacted with WNSTN exactly once.
Active WNSTN users
Interacted with WNSTN more than once.
All users were analyzed, regardless of WNSTN usage.
Outliers and super-engaged users were removed to normalize results and avoid overstating impact.
Revenue simulations used observed usage uplift and conservative growth assumptions (2.5% / 5% / 7.5% monthly adoption growth).
Conversion rates from non-active to active users were benchmarked against other WNSTN clients.
