About Capital Critic

Honest prop firm reviews, built by someone who’s been on the inside

After more than five years building and growing prop firms from the inside, I started Capital Critic to do what most review sites won’t: rate firms honestly, treat them fairly, and give traders real tools instead of hidden agendas.

Why I built Capital Critic

For over five years, I’ve worked on the other side of the prop firm review industry — as a Director at MyForexFunds, more recently as Chief Growth Officer at E8 Markets, and as a consultant to other firms navigating the same landscape.

That vantage point taught me how review websites really operate. I’ve seen the good — and I’ve seen how many of them quietly take advantage of the firms they cover: pay-to-rank tables, ratings that move with ad budgets, and “reviews” that are really leverage. I’ve also spent years helping firms protect themselves from the scams and threats that come with the territory.

Capital Critic is my answer to all of it — a review site that rates firms on real data and real trader sentiment, not on who paid the most. One that’s fair to the firms it lists and genuinely useful to the traders who rely on it.

What makes us different

The prop firm review space runs on hidden incentives. We run on a short list of principles — and none of them are for sale.

Honest by default

Rankings reflect aggregated ratings and real trader sentiment from TrustPilot and Prop Firm Match — never pay-to-rank. Where a link is an affiliate link, it never moves a firm up the table.

Built by an insider

Five-plus years inside prop firms means I know exactly where review sites cut corners — and how a fair one should actually work.

Fair to the firms

We don't shake down the firms we cover. No manufactured outrage, no “pay us to remove this review” invoices — just an accurate picture for traders.

Useful to traders

Free, data-driven tools to help you pick a firm and stay funded — with AI-backed tooling on the way. The trader is the customer, not the product.

Where we’re headed

Free, AI-backed tools for traders

Capital Critic is just getting started. The goal is a platform that gives traders free, AI-backed tools — to compare firms, make sense of the rules, size risk and stay funded — paid for by a business model that’s honest with firms and traders alike. No pay-to-rank. No taking advantage of the firms we list. Just better information, freely available.

  • Smarter comparisonsAI that turns dense firm rules into a clear, side-by-side read.
  • Stay-funded toolingRisk and drawdown helpers built around each firm's actual limits.
  • Always free for tradersThe core tools stay free — funded honestly, never by selling rankings.
