What is Cortex Flash?

Cortex Flash is an institutional event-intelligence terminal published by Xyron Intelligence, a division of Arenberg AG (Zug, Switzerland · CHE-182.186.360). It detects primary-source macroeconomic releases, central-bank decisions, and regulatory disclosures in 50 ms p95, publishes a cited written interpretation with an explicit falsification condition in 700 ms median, and measures the cross-asset market reaction beside the read at 5 s, 30 s, 120 s, and 300 s.

How are the 50 ms and 700 ms figures measured?

Both figures are measured inside the Cortex Flash server pipeline from the timestamp the primary-source collector receives the publisher payload to the timestamp the signed WebSocket frame leaves the outbound fan-out queue. Tick 1 (50 ms p95) dispatches the structured numeric release and consensus surprise; Tick 3 (700 ms median) dispatches the cited written interpretation and invalidation threshold.

What happens when the market disagrees with the written read?

Every covered release is automatically checked against the 45 benchmark pulse contracts at four fixed horizons (5 s, 30 s, 120 s, and 300 s). When the measured benchmark move contradicts the initial directional read or crosses the stated invalidation level, the event is stamped DIVERGENT and published unaltered in the Public Event Record (/record).

What macro and central-bank releases are covered?

Cortex Flash covers 125 macroeconomic and central-bank series across 20 jurisdictions and 16 central banks (including the Federal Reserve, ECB, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, and Swiss National Bank), paired with 45 benchmark pulse contracts, SEC 8-K filings, OFAC/BIS sanctions, FDA clinical catalysts, 18 physical infrastructure chokepoints, and 81 UAE (DFM/ADX) issuers.

What market data is live, delayed or derived?

Primary-source event detection and Arenberg AG derived interpretations (data_nature: processed_derived_intelligence) stream in real time. Benchmark reaction pulses measure top-of-book and ten-level book state across the 45 benchmark contracts at 5 s, 30 s, 120 s, and 300 s; every instrument row in the terminal carries an explicit LIVE or DELAYED freshness badge.

Do I need my own exchange market-data licences?

No separate exchange licence is required to use Cortex Flash event cards, 3-tick written interpretations, surprise scores, or derived reaction verdicts, which are proprietary derived works owned by Arenberg AG with zero exchange pass-through fees. Desks that require raw venue order-book redistribution must hold their own direct venue entitlements.

Can I try the terminal for a single event day?

Yes. Cortex Flash offers a self-serve 24-Hour Event Pass for $250 (one-time, non-recurring, includes $25 of Ask Cortex research credit) and a 7-Day Event Pass for $500 (one-time, non-recurring, includes $75 of Ask Cortex research credit) so a desk can evaluate the live terminal across a scheduled CPI, NFP, or central-bank session.

What does a $1,500/month Professional seat include?

A Professional seat ($1,500/month or $15,000/year when billed annually, two months included) licenses 1 named user across Web, macOS, and Windows workspaces, includes $350/month of Ask Cortex research credit, and provides full access to all 125 macro and central-bank series, 45 benchmark reaction pulses, Intel Map, Intel Graph, Pre-Event dossiers, and Publications.

When do I need a Desk plan or an Enterprise Feed licence?

The Desk plan ($6,000/month or $60,000/year) covers 5 named users on one consolidated invoice with a shared $1,750/month Ask Cortex research credit pool. An Enterprise Feed licence (priced by quote via desk@cortexflash.com) is required when you ingest the HMAC-SHA256 signed WebSocket firehose or REST event API into internal systematic, risk, or execution systems.

Who owns and operates Cortex Flash?

Cortex Flash is engineered, owned, and published by Arenberg AG (operating as Xyron Intelligence), a Swiss corporation established in 2020 and registered in the Commercial Register of the Canton of Zug under company number CHE-182.186.360 at Bahnhofstrasse 21, 6300 Zug, Switzerland.

Where does processing run and how are tenants separated?

Application and streaming workloads run in Google Cloud (us-central1, Iowa) and AI inference runs on Google Cloud Vertex AI (global endpoint); no Swiss or European data-residency option is offered today. Tenant separation is enforced in application code scoped to the authenticated account, customer prompts and vault documents are never used to train models, no external penetration test has been commissioned, and no custom DPA or SSO/SAML integration is offered.

What certifications does Arenberg AG hold and how do I verify them?

Arenberg AG holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and SOC 2 Type II certifications, and its underlying cloud infrastructure inherits Google Cloud ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II controls. Certificate numbers, scope statements, and the Canton of Zug commercial registry link (CHE-182.186.360) are published for direct verification on /certifications.
