Users can describe the type of companies they want (e.g., ‘profitable robotics companies’ or ‘stocks with strong pricing power’) and the AI screener returns matching stocks from a library of research reports. Coverage spans 5,000+ US-traded stocks, including microcaps, nanocaps, and OTC names, with detailed fundamentals, narrative analysis, category taxonomy, and a weekly ‘Investment Themes of the Week’ newsletter. The core web app is free to use as of late 2025.
