Where each one shines
What Gainify and Ziggma each do best.What Gainify does best
- Gainify is discontinued historical context rather than a live product to buy; the current homepage says the service is closed and no longer available.
- The legacy profile to understand an AI stock analysis workflow that combined global screening, stock reports, AI chat, earnings recaps, charting, watchlists, and portfolio tracking.
- Views for reviewing the historical screener concept: 1,000+ filters, broad global ticker coverage, S&P Global data references, custom output columns, and fast watchlist workflows.
- Comparison tools for legacy stock reports that bundled company snapshots, Wall Street estimates, valuation metrics, ownership, dividends, financial history, forecasts, ratings, AI earnings summaries, and transcripts.
- Research tools for studying the Gainify Rating and Gainify Score as examples of explainable, multi-factor stock scoring for quality, value, growth, and related research dimensions.
What Ziggma does best
- Tracking portfolios across linked brokerage and retirement accounts, CSV uploads, and manual or virtual portfolios, with consolidated performance, allocation, and risk views.
- Account linking through third-party aggregation providers where supported; Ziggma states it does not access or store broker login credentials and uses OAuth where available.
- Screening for stocks and ETFs with slider-based filters, real-time-updating results, saved screen presets, and watchlist actions.
- Ziggma Stock Score for a 0-100 fundamentals-based rating built around growth, profitability, valuation, financial strength, and related quality dimensions.
- Monitoring dividend income, portfolio yield, and dividend opportunities across accounts and holdings.

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 Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date.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