Pricing
Last updated: 2026-08-27
Here is what each plan holds. We have written it flat, with no crossed out prices and no countdown, because neither plan is a limited offer.
Free
$0 per month, permanently
- Tonight, the first two names of the portfolio you are mapped to, the evening it is published, with the count of how many more it holds. They come without their sizes.
- Your mapped portfolio in full, one trading session behind: every holding, the weight of each one, and the plain language reasoning.
- The list of what changed since last time, so you can see the difference rather than work it out yourself.
- The full menu of portfolios your own answers make you eligible for, not only the one you were handed.
- The signals desk, on the same one session delay: a market scan, a watchlist you build yourself, an avoid list, a map of where the models are most and least comfortable, a sector by sector view, and a plain read on market conditions.
- Live, not delayed: the options figures for every name we cover: open interest, implied volatility, the priced range, the strike ladder and the sixteen year volatility history. The listed options market publishes these; we only transcribe them, so there is nothing for us to hold back.
- Your own record trail and the archive hash, so you can audit us yourself.
- How the mapping rules work, written out, so you can see the logic before you give us anything.
Every screen is labelled with the session it is showing, so you always know whether you are looking at today's work or yesterday's.
Subscription
$19 per month, or $190 a year
Paying yearly is cheaper: it saves you $38. Twelve months bought one at a time would be $228, so at $190 you pay for ten months and get twelve. Both schedules carry exactly the same thing; the only difference is when you pay.
- Everything in Free, with the signals desk drawing the current session rather than the session before it. That is the whole of the difference between the plans: the scan, the watchlist read, the avoid list, the map, the sector view and the market read, all on the session the models last ran.
- The defensive portfolio alongside your own, and the plain language risk state.
There is no pane and no portfolio that a subscription unlocks, and no figure either. What it reaches earlier is the desk itself. The published portfolio arrives one trading session behind on both plans.
One paid plan, two ways to pay it, and that is the whole schedule. We set no minimum account size, so the price has to be defensible against a small balance as well as a large one.
If you pay annually and then cancel, here is what happens to your money. Annual is billed once, up front, for twelve months. If you cancel part way through, we refund the whole months you have not used, at one twelfth of the annual price each, and we do not keep a cancellation fee. That is $15.83 back for every whole month you did not use. The month you are in is not refunded because you had access for it. Monthly cancels at the end of the month you have paid for, with nothing further taken.
A plan may not gate the portfolios themselves. Which portfolio you are shown depends on what you told us and on nothing else, so there is nothing you can buy that changes it.
Rules that apply whatever you pay
Paying never unlocks more risk. The largest loss you tell us you could live with caps which portfolios you can ever be shown. Subscribing does not loosen a limit your own answers set, and there is no amount of money that buys you past your stated tolerance.
- If the subscription does not make sense for your account size, we will say so. $19 a month works out at about 2.3 percent a year of a ten thousand dollar account, and a larger share of anything smaller, and your broker's trading costs land on the same balance. Below roughly ten thousand dollars we do not think it is likely to be worth its cost to you, the software says so before you subscribe, and the free plan carries the same work a session later at no cost at all.
- Other limits still apply. If your broker cannot short, or you would rather not, you are capped at long only portfolios. Some portfolios have a minimum account size, or are ruled out for smaller margin accounts by the pattern day trader rule. These are checks on the profile, and they were never checks on the price you pay.
- You still place every order yourself. We hold no money, take no discretion, connect to no broker, and execute nothing.
- No performance figures. We publish none, and nothing you can buy gives you access to any.
What signing up means
Signing up is real onboarding, not a waiting list. Here is exactly what it is and is not.
- You get a real account, the real questionnaire, and the real product, and your record trail is kept with the same care as any client's.
- It is not a contract to buy anything, and it does not lock a price or put you ahead of anyone.
- It does not make you an advisory client. See Terms, section 5.
- You can close your account at any time by writing to [email protected].
The free plan is not a trial of the paid one. It does not expire and it does not end.
Before you consider paying for anything like this
Investing puts your money at risk. You can lose money, including all of the money you put in. A subscription fee is a certain cost, and nothing about a portfolio is certain. Please read the Disclosures page, which sets out the risks, our conflicts of interest, and what our published material is and is not.
