When you say, “monitor red flags” what is actually happening ? How are you determining red flags ? Will an LLM be running every x hours analyzing news, so I can give very specific things to look for ?

Red flags are things like significant drops in stock price, revenue, earnings, customer satisfaction, lawsuits, or changes in senior management.

You can specify the red flags, or the LLM will specify them for you don't include them.

You can also specify how often you want the LLM to monitor things for you.

This looks like a scam.

It's just a research and analysis tool that automates the process of reading lots of SEC Filings and earnings call transcripts and checking the news and stock quotes back to back.

Just automates the research that users would do manually.

> Monitor Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Meta stock. Notify me if any of them start trending toward being undervalued If you actually had a system that could detect when a stock was "undervalued" you should just trade directly on that system instead of selling it to consumers. This is pretty clearly scammy/predatory towards retail investors.

We only look at when the stock is objectively "undervalued". I'm not saying the system will tell you that a stock like Palantir is undervalued because it has a bright future. No. This system only tells when a stock is objectively undervalued. There are a few ways to know this. Here some examples: - Market cap is less than book value. - Market cap is less than free cash flow x 8 There are other ways, but these are som…

If any of these metrics were arbitrage, it would mean the fastest execution wins and the gap wouldnt last long. These metrics almost never work

Locking this behind a signup form seems like a mistake.

I tend to agree. If you're dead set on locking behind a signup, at least the example queries shown (e.g. 'Summarize Apple's latest earnings' should be clickable so that users can see how it works.

I haven't really used agentic AI yet and I am already completely sick of it.

40 questions to Saturday just sounds ridiculous.

I feel like on this trajectory my broker is soon going to be pretending my trailing stop is an AI agent monitoring when to get out of the trade "in the background".

Is this investment advice?

> the trick is knowing why its undervalued and if that valuation is justified.

If it’s justified, then it’s not undervalued.

Everything you described above is also just wrong and you should please stop encouraging uneducated retail investors to believe anything that fits these heuristics is “objectively undervalued”.
