The Future of Funding
Starts in Our Lab

Topstep Labs is where we experiment with bold ideas as limited drops. Some of these could make it out of the lab and into Topstep. Some won't. That's science.

What Is Topstep Labs?

You've probably had ideas you thought a prop firm should try. Labs is where those ideas get tested 
for real. Some experiments make it out of the lab and into the full Topstep program.

01

We Drop an Experiment

A new experiment goes live as a limited drop. Not a concept, something you can start trading.

Limited Drops

02

Traders Get First Access

Join the experiment, put the idea to the test, and be among the first to try something new from Topstep.

Built With The Community

03

Your Trading Shapes What’s Next

We study the results, listen to trader feedback, and use what we learn to build better ways to get funded.

Real Experiments

The Scientist Behind Topstep Labs

Topstep acquired The Futures Desk because we knew how much they cared about the development of Futures traders. Josh Schwartzberg was the man behind The Futures Desk, and now he’s the head scientist behind Topstep Labs.
"We built The Futures Desk because we believed traders deserved a better way to learn. Topstep Labs gives us the opportunity to bring those ideas to life at Topstep scale."
