Free vs Pro
Reading is free. Having the agent work for you across everything you own is Pro. The table below is the one the product enforces.

See pricingOn this page5 sections
Anything we write once for everyone is free to read: stock reports, our call on more than 700 US stocks, filings, fund pages, strategies and their caveats. What a plan changes is how much is done for you personally.
The one number that matters: covered stocks
Tracking is unlimited on Free and Pro: every holding and watched name gets its price, our call and its next earnings date. On Free, 3 of them are covered: they get the full report (price zones, the whole brief, how the call has moved), explained moves in your briefing and morning email, and the pre-earnings read. Pro covers everything you track. Free keeps 5 price alerts by email; email alerts on zones and calls are Pro only.
Without a limit on changes, the 3 slots could be used to read zones across the whole market. So the first 3 stocks you cover are free picks, and after that covering a new stock is a swap, one a week. Uncovering is free any time, and putting back a stock you covered in the last seven days does not use the swap. When the swap is used, the app names the day the next one opens.
A small set of showcase stocks shows its full report to everyone, signed out included, marked Example, open to everyone, so you can see what coverage looks like before you use a slot.
What is never behind a lock
- The call on a stock and when it was made. Every reader sees the same call at the same time.
- Why we made the call and what would change it, on every stock.
- The source of a number and the time it is from.
- Risk notes, backtest caveats and methodology.
- Public filings.
- Your own data and its export.
- Cancelling.

How a limit behaves
- Covered stocks means the feature works on the stocks your plan covers. On the others you still see the report and the call.
- Counts (followed stocks, followed investors, saved screens) stop you adding one more once you reach the limit. Agents are the exception: one created past the limit is saved switched off, and runs once you pause another.
- Daily meters (questions, backtests, API calls) count by UTC day, so they reset at midnight UTC. A backtest setup you already ran that day opens again without counting.
- Depth limits apply to backtests today. Free and signed-out runs look back five years and Pro tests every year we hold. A run that asks for more is moved to the five-year start and says so.
Paying and cancelling
Pro is $19 a month or $190 a year, billed through our payment provider, Dodo Payments. At US checkout, an account that has not had one before gets a 3-day trial, which asks for a card. You can cancel from Account. Cancelling stops the next charge and you keep Pro until the period you paid for ends. See Security for what we store about a payment.
