Generally third party apps will get data from market data providers like xignite etc. And where does xignite get the data? They pay for sessions to receive market data directly from all of the exchanges they care about. This data is not cheap from either source.
Not cheap — not necessary. There are data providers like tiingo, quandl, intrinio (just to name a few) that provide quite a lot of data for reasonable prices.
There's a link at the bottom to Google Finance. If you click through, the charts required Flash. Google Chrome is blocking Flash.
I bet that's a source of strife for the Finance team over at Google...

That's true, everything is relative and it also depends what scale of market data you require. I think it's quite cheap to get end of day stock prices but if you want real time market data it gets steep. The closer you get to actual real time the more expensive seems to be the trend.
Cheapest realtime stock prices I've seen were ~500$; don't remember where that was though.
This is a very competitive field, with dozens of options. I have done extensive research myself in the past looking for screeners that provide enough functionality for my needs. I'm curious what problem you're attempting to solve vs. all the current entrants in this space? FWIW, I really like your UI + speed. Things that I have had trouble finding executed well elsewhere (besides the super expensive tools like Factse…
One of our loved features was the Screener - we modeled to make it as easy-to-use with setting your own custom metrics and really good timeseries information.
It's cheaper than FactSet and Bloomberg, and you can try a free trial from the site pretty easily.
What are people using for portfolio tracking? Google Finance is shutting down portfolios so I'm looking for an alternative.

Can I filter by Sector and other category variables? I'm only focusing on tech sector and would like to build filters for various subcategories. I couldn't do it on mobile.

For the record - I used to work at YCharts. One of our loved features was the Screener - we modeled to make it as easy-to-use with setting your own custom metrics and really good timeseries information.

That was a scratch your own itch project; just so you understand we (folks behind stockrow) are hobby investors who do not plan to pay for services like bloomberg and ycharts yet require tools and access to data in simplest possible form. For us problem is that all screeners (and tools) that are available are either slow, dumb, lack flexibility, are really hard to use or expensive (or all of the above combined). So w…
This looks great, I'd definitely pay a few dollars a month for something like this.
