Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the questions advisors ask most when comparing StratiFi and Nitrogen.
-
What's the best Nitrogen alternative for advisors who outgrew Riskalyze?
Advisors switch from Nitrogen when they need three things Nitrogen wasn't built for: risk capacity (not just tolerance), accurate scoring of complex products like structured notes, and continuous compliance surveillance across the firm. StratiFi combines all three with a 1-10 PRISM risk score, multi-factor risk decomposition, AI document extraction, and firm-wide compliance analytics — without the page caps and proxy workarounds Nitrogen forces on large accounts.
-
Can StratiFi customize the risk questionnaire where Nitrogen can't?
Yes. StratiFi's risk questionnaire is fully customizable — set your own questions, weights, and scoring logic, and deploy a different questionnaire per persona or business line. The templated Nitrogen questionnaire is one of the most-cited frustrations among the advisors who switch to StratiFi.
-
How does StratiFi handle risk capacity vs. just risk tolerance?
Risk tolerance is what a client says they're comfortable with. Risk capacity is what their financial situation can actually absorb — net worth, income stability, time horizon, dependents. Nitrogen reports treat these as a single number; StratiFi evaluates them independently using Daniel Kahneman's Prospect Theory and the Arrow-Pratt risk aversion framework, and surfaces the mismatch before it becomes a compliance issue.
-
Does StratiFi score structured notes and complex products properly?
Yes. PRISM evaluates risk across volatility, correlation, tail risk, beta, and concentration — and applies that framework to structured notes, options, alternatives, and interval funds rather than proxying them to a mismatched benchmark. A high-risk structured note doesn't get scored as if it were a Treasury, and a bond doesn't get mapped to a generic equity proxy.
-
How does StratiFi handle portfolios with hundreds of holdings?
PRISM processes portfolios with 1,000+ positions in under 10 seconds — no per-page caps, no scrolling across screens to see the full picture. Advisors managing concentrated stock plans, multi-account households, or alternative-heavy portfolios get a single risk view instead of pages of fragments.
-
Is StratiFi a more cost-effective alternative to Nitrogen?
Many firms switch because Nitrogen's pricing has become a board-level conversation. StratiFi offers per-seat flexibility with separate pricing for analyst and support-staff licenses rather than all-in advisor seat pricing, plus pilot programs that let you evaluate before committing.
