A trading desk built as a system of record
Comet is a trading ERP for commodity and refractory minerals. It runs the whole trade on one record and keeps the accounting, documents and stock inside the system, so the desk and the books never drift apart.
What Comet is
Comet runs the full lifecycle of a physical trade — inquiry, pricing, contracts, procurement, warehousing, shipping, invoicing and accounting — on a single record. It is built for desks that run more than one trading entity, with documents in the language each entity uses and dual currency, USD and EUR, on every figure.
The accounting, documents and stock moves live inside Comet, so it is the system of record for the trade rather than a dashboard over spreadsheets. The trade compliance engine is a separate add-on that reads shipping documents against the letter of credit, and it can be installed or removed on its own.
Many houses, one system
Run several trading entities from one system, each with its own identity, documents and books.
Automated test suites
Covering the trade flow from the calculation desk through to the accounting entries.
Client data at rest
Ships empty; a tenant is reconstituted from a sealed data pack.
Add-on you can remove
The compliance engine is provably safe to uninstall — nothing else depends on it.
