Founder here.

The pitch behind this is that the current landscape of investment tools isn’t fitting the bill for what I needed to effectively invest. Google/Yahoo Finance are great resources for seeing statistics of a single stock, but they weren’t really built to show aggregate data across an entire portfolio. The aim of this product is to give a point in time snapshot of a portfolio in order to bridge that gap.

This initial release is just a small subset of what is planned for the product. There’s a ton of exciting things planned for the next release, which will really catapult it forward in terms of usefulness.

Would love to get your feedback HN! Positive or negative, it will all be helpful!




A few things I noticed:

* I think the word you want to be using is "analysis". "Analyzation" isn't a word that I know of (except on urbandictionary.com)

* The white effects around the buttons and screen shots are very bright (at least on my monitor) and distracting

* The language on the page doesn't really tell me, as the consumer, what the product does for me. Can you be more descriptive, but keep it just as short? How would you describe it to your grandmother?

* Why is there a link to your blog if it has no content?

* How do you get data in and out of this service? Any options for bulk import/export? Can you export your data if you want to leave the service?

* Can you break down the pricing and plan comparison into a tabular format? And again be more descriptive; what does "advanced data" mean? What exactly does a portfolio consist of? Or maybe create an FAQ?

* The http site shows the "Click for live help" button, but https does not. (repro steps: click sign in, then click investy logo at top, notice no help popup under https?)


If you get some traction we'd love to help you take the visuals to the next level. We just finished a project that enables us to import data(like portfolios) from 3rd party sources.

Thanks for the offer, I'll keep that in mind :)


Can you auto-generate teaser pages, first-click-free type thing for a wagon-load of sample portfolios, for SEO?
