Fey was an AI-native investing research workspace for stocks and ETFs, known for natural-language screening, AI earnings and filing summaries, personalized news, portfolio analysis, and a polished desktop-first workflow. It is no longer a current signup option: Fey joined Wealthsimple in August 2025 and its standalone service wound down on September 30, 2025.

Global Factor Data, often called JKP Factors, is a free academic research dataset and web interface for global equity factor returns, stock characteristics, and reproducible factor-construction code based on Jensen, Kelly, and Pedersen. It is best for quants, researchers, students, and factor-investing teams that need transparent evidence on global factor performance rather than marketing claims. The data is not a live trading feed, and the license is non-commercial unless separate permission is granted.

Portfolio Visualizer is a web-based portfolio analysis suite for backtesting portfolios, testing asset allocations, running Monte Carlo simulations, optimizing allocations, analyzing factors, checking correlations, and researching funds. It is strongest for DIY investors, analysts, and advisors who want evidence for allocation, withdrawal, and risk decisions without building every model in spreadsheets. The free tier is useful but constrained, while Basic and Pro add larger portfolios, YTD results, saving, imports, exports, and commercial-use support on Pro. It is not a broker, live portfolio accounting system, or automatic rebalancing platform.

About Me
Hey! Thanks for stopping by. I'm an independent investor with a soft spot for coding and the stock market - especially value investing (as you can probably tell from the tools I've collected here, haha). Hopefully you'll find something useful or interesting along the way.

Starred Tools
These are my top picks. Tools I've tested thoroughly and found to be excellent. They do their job really well, and I use them a lot. If you're not already familiar with them, I highly recommend checking them out.
Tested Tools
These are tools I've tried and found to be solid, but not standout. Think of them as passing an initial quality screen: worth exploring, though not all will be exceptional.
Curation & Accuracy
This directory blends AI‑assisted discovery with human curation. Entries are reviewed, edited, and organized with the goal of expanding coverage and sharpening quality over time. Your feedback helps steer improvements (because no single human can capture everything all at once).
Details change. Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date. Treat listings as a starting point and verify on the provider’s site before making decisions. If you spot an error or a gap, send a quick note and I’ll adjust.
