Proving Ground Partners sells a browser-based AI trading desk with a US$250 entry. Before the first deposit, it is worth asking which of the published claims survive contact with the platform own fine print.
The desk combines AI signals with manual control. Newcomers can start on the practice account, fund US$250 when ready, and trade 8 assets through the partner broker.
We reviewed the public record: pricing, restrictions, support hours, payout wording and every claim in between. Where the record contradicts itself, the scorecard marks it down.
Minimum deposit: US$250
No registration charge · Practice account included

- The support story: around-the-clock coverage claimed, exact figures conflicting.
- The geo-restrictions: two lists on the page that do not agree.
- The template marks: unfilled placeholders left in the wording.

The bottom line
SAFE - WITH CONDITIONSWhat we found is a real service wrapped in marketing that outruns its own fine print. Trade the service, not the marketing.
Our 4.8 reflects what the pages publish and what they skip. It is not a warning off - it is a reminder to trade the product, not the pitch.
