Let’s chat firm controls
Custom control at scale. For firms of every size.
Firm Controls is a suite of configuration and management tools built for firms that want more control—without the complexity of a full Command Center implementation, empowering you to customize the Nitrogen experience across users, reports, and portfolios with precision and efficiency.
- Firm Administrators
Gain full control over your Nitrogen implementation without needing enterprise infrastructure. Search, emulate, and manage advisors and offices more efficiently than ever—and reassign clients in bulk to reflect team transitions or advisor changes.
- Individual Advisors
Easily showcase your value with beautifully branded reports that reflect your unique identity. Build and propose proprietary strategies using real-world performance data or custom assumptions—without relying on prebuilt product catalogs.
- Operations Teams
Reduce manual work and streamline oversight. From user provisioning and client assignment to data visibility and model sharing, Firm Controls helps your operations scale as your business grows.
- Marketing & Branding
Ensure brand consistency across every touchpoint. With Custom Brand Colors flowing through every Nitrogen report, your client-facing materials reflect the firm’s story and design—no manual edits or external tools required.
Benefits of
Firm Controls
Create reusable, firm-specific securities—complete with a custom ticker and name. Upload historical performance data to generate modeled risk and return analytics, or define risk parameters manually for securities like private placements or structured products. Now, you can model proprietary strategies and present them just like any other investment in Nitrogen.
Need to move advisors between offices or reassign clients across your team? Firm Controls includes enhanced advisor emulation, office search, and bulk client transfer capabilities—purpose-built for administrators. Search for advisors by office, emulate their view in real time, and reassign clients at scale with just a few clicks. It's everything you need to keep your firm organized and moving forward.
Firm Controls includes several powerful capabilities designed for operational efficiency:
- User Management: Add and manage advisors as your firm grows
- Data Sharing: Enable collaboration with shared models, clients, and portfolios
- Team Identity Controls: Choose whether to emphasize the advisor’s name or the firm’s brand on reports and client-facing outputs

Build strategies. Tell the full story.
Introducing Strategies Builder—a powerful enhancement that gives you the best of both performance-based and research-driven analytics. Now, when you create a strategy in Nitrogen, you can assign actual monthly performance and specify the underlying holdings, allowing your strategy to behave much like a model across the platform.
So what’s the difference between a model and a strategy?
- Models are allocation-based containers. You set their holdings, and Nitrogen derives all analytics—including Risk Number, Historical Range, GPA, and more—from those holdings.
- Strategies are performance-driven. You provide composite returns and (optionally) underlying holdings. Nitrogen derives risk and return from the actual performance history, while still surfacing detailed breakdowns like Size & Style, Sector Exposure, and Stock Intersection from the holdings you attach.
If your strategy changes frequently—like many tactical or hybrid approaches—its performance profile may differ from the static holdings you might model elsewhere. That’s why Strategies Builder was built: to accurately represent what your clients experience, while still visualizing how it’s constructed.
And because your strategies integrate directly into Research Center and Reports Builder, you can illustrate performance and positioning in beautifully branded, fully compliant reports—at scale.
