Simply Wall St is a stock research app built around visual company reports. Its Snowflake scores each company on six pass/fail checks in each of five areas: valuation, future growth, past performance, financial health and dividends. Its plans page (October 2026) lists 120,000+ stocks in 90+ markets, a free tier with one portfolio of up to 10 holdings and 5 company reports a month, and paid plans billed yearly with a 7-day Premium trial. The page does not show prices.
Portfolio risk. A strong Snowflake on each holding does not tell you that five of them move together or what the whole mix lost in 2022. Exent checks exactly that: concentration, correlation clusters, a crash replay of your current weights through 2008, 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2025, and a risk-matched benchmark so you compare yourself with a portfolio of similar risk, not just the S&P 500 index.
It covers ideas from a measured angle too. Stocks Radar ranks Wall Street analysts by how their past calls played out, and Gems are stocks where several 4★-and-above analysts agree. Each holding gets a label (Wealth Generating, Wealth Preserving, Prospect or Risky), and AI explains every result in plain English.
Yes, because they answer different questions. Pass/fail checks summarize a company’s fundamentals; every check counts equally, so a score of 20 out of 30 can hide one serious weakness. Exent’s numbers are portfolio statistics computed by quantitative models on market data: drawdowns, correlations, Sharpe and Sortino ratios. They describe how your holdings behaved together, which is what decides how a portfolio does in a selloff. Neither predicts returns. Our guide on how to analyze your stock portfolio shows where each kind of check fits.
From a screenshot or file, never a brokerage login. You upload a screenshot of your holdings, or a CSV, Excel, PDF or Google Sheet, and AI reads the positions.

Details are in how screenshot import works and data security.
