Stock research without the finance degree. Stock Taper brings the fundamentals that matter — financial statements, analyst ratings, institutional ownership, congressional trades, and more — into one place, explained in plain English. Built for retail investors who want to understand the numbers without decoding Wall Street jargon. We believe everyone should have access to clear, understandable stock research. Too often, the data is buried in terminology and scattered across dozens of tabs. We're changing that. WHAT YOU GET WITH PRO • Deep-dive every ticker. The premium page for every stock — up to ten years of income, balance sheet, and cash flow statements, with growth context built in. • Your private watchlist. Track up to 20 stocks. Earnings alerts a week in advance, earnings call summaries, and an activity feed surfacing every grade change, insider filing, and congressional disclosure for the symbols you follow. • Congress trade alerts. Follow your favorite members of Congress and get notified when they trade. • Head-to-head comparisons. Pick any two stocks and read the side-by-side: fundamentals, valuation, growth, AI investor-fit verdict, and grounded news context. • Insider trade tracking. Form 4 filings the day they hit, with role and amount surfaced. • Analyst grades and price targets. Full ratings history and consensus targets. • Spot the opportunities. Sector breakdowns with themes, risks, and the stocks to watch. SUBSCRIPTION Stock Taper Pro is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription.
