Affordable stock screeners using options flow and institutional signals to help retail investors filter stocks efficiently.

The pain

Retail investors struggle to find affordable, reliable tools that distill complex options and institutional trading data into actionable stock picks.

The gap

Existing screeners with options flow and institutional signals are often expensive or too complex for retail traders, leaving a market gap for simpler, lower-cost solutions.

Build angle

Develop a user-friendly, cost-effective screener focused on key options and institutional data points that matter most to retail investors, validated by early user feedback.

Strengths

  • Clear market need among retail traders for affordable, specialized screening tools.
  • Leverages underutilized data (options flow, institutional signals) that can provide an edge.
  • Potential to differentiate from generic screeners by focusing on niche data sets.

Risks

  • Data sourcing and licensing costs for options and institutional signals could be high.
  • Complexity in accurately interpreting and presenting options flow data to non-expert users.
  • Competition from established platforms that may add similar features or lower prices.
