Questions we keep getting
What's the difference between ETF.com and Koyfin?
ETF.com leans toward ETF screeners, ETF comparison, and ETF analysis, while Koyfin puts more weight on screeners, ETF screeners, and data visualizations. They overlap in 5 categories, so for most people it comes down to workflow preference and price.

Good news: both ETF.com and Koyfin have free plans, so you can run them side by side and only pay if you hit a wall.
Can I use ETF.com or Koyfin on my phone?
Koyfin lists a dedicated mobile app, so it travels better. ETF.com doesn't list a dedicated mobile app; its documented access is web.
Should I choose ETF.com or Koyfin?
It depends on what you're after. Pick ETF.com if ETF comparison and ETF factors matter to you; go with Koyfin if you'd rather have screeners and data visualizations. And if you only need the basics both share, let price decide.

Both cover ETFs. Koyfin adds stocks, mutual funds, and closed-end funds on top.
Does ETF.com or Koyfin have real-time data?

Koyfin syncs with brokers automatically. With ETF.com, you're entering holdings by hand or importing files.

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 Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date.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