GuruFocus is a value-investing research platform for investors who want global fundamentals, valuation tools, GF Score, GF Value, stock/ETF/bond screeners, backtesting, guru and institutional holdings, insider trades, portfolio tracking, spreadsheet add-ins, and data/API access. It is strongest for fundamental and value-oriented research rather than brokerage execution.

Roic AI is a financial data, stock research, and API platform for investors and developers who want company financials, transcripts, news, screeners, exports, spreadsheet endpoints, AI research assistance, and MCP or ChatGPT workflows. It is strongest for fundamentals and agent-ready data access, with worldwide coverage on every plan, but plan differences matter for rate limits, history depth, transcript depth, and commercial API use.

OnlyDividends is a privacy-first dividend-income tracker for investors who want to manually enter holdings, monitor dividend paydays, estimate net income after withholding tax, and visualize income trends without connecting a broker or bank. It is strongest for dividend investors who value simple portfolio income tracking, mobile access, multi-currency support, dividend calendars, health scores, and public dividend-stock pages. Free access tracks a small portfolio, while Premium raises the stock limit and adds priority support. It is not a brokerage, tax-lot system, rebalancer, public API, or full portfolio accounting product.

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 Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date.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.
