Can you run a bot on this prop firm? Can it use the broker API, a VPS, copy-trading? Most firms bury this in fine print — here it is per firm, in one table, with official sources and the date we last verified each.
Independent tooling — not affiliated with any prop firm. Rules change often; always confirm on the firm's official page before you buy.

How to read this: "Bots / EAs" = does the firm permit automated strategies at all. "Broker API" = is there a programmatic order path (and whether a sandbox exists). "Live-acct auto" = automation specifically on the live/funded phase (several firms allow bots in the sim/eval phase but not once you reach a real live account). "Serbia" reflects citizenship/residence eligibility we found — always verify before purchase. Blank cells are honestly "not yet confirmed", not "no".
AlgoProven models each firm's exact rules — drawdown type, daily loss, consistency, automation policy — and checks every trade against them before your bot takes risk.
