Want something better than Seeking Alpha? Here it is.

Brief Equity is for the investor whose view has to be their own. It puts what a company files and says in one feed for the stocks you track: SEC filings, press releases, and earnings-call transcripts, beside news, insider trades, and analyst ratings, with a tab per source. You read the call, save the passage that matters into a notebook with a back-link to the exact spot, check it against the statements, and build the valuation on your own assumptions. What you end up with is a thesis you wrote, kept in a research library where the columns, stages, and tags are yours.

Seeking Alpha starts from the other end. Its About page describes investment ideas and analysis written by investors, reviewed by its editors, and opened to community comments: over 5,000 articles a month, covering 8,000 to 10,000 tickers a quarter. Each author rates the stock, and its Quant Ratings grade about 5,600 stocks from Strong Buy to Strong Sell (as of October 2026). In Brief Equity what you read is the source, and the conclusion you keep is your own.

Brief Equity's feed carries news, press releases, earnings-call transcripts, SEC filings, insider trades, and analyst ratings for every ticker on your watchlists, with a tab per source. Select a passage in a transcript or press release and it saves into a note as a callout with a back-link to the exact spot. A block of cells from the financials saves as a table, and a chart or a model's valuation card saves as an image.

The notes sit in a research library with your own columns, stages, and tags, and a notebook for every stock. Your columns come in 7 types, any of 182 market metrics can sit beside them, you can filter by any column, and a board lays the stocks out in lanes by a field such as Stage or Conviction. A knowledge graph draws your watchlists, stocks, notes, and the funds you follow as one picture.

Seeking Alpha's help centre describes a note you add to a stock in a portfolio or from its symbol page, with every saved note collected on a My Notes page, for Premium and PRO subscribers. Its help centre and its Premium feature list name no research library or knowledge graph (as of October 2026).

An earnings transcript opens in a reader that sets each speaker's remarks apart, groups the Q&A question by question, and skips straight to it. A filing, a press release or an earnings transcript in the feed has a menu that opens ChatGPT or Claude on it, and a transcript can also be copied as Markdown or downloaded as a file.

Seeking Alpha transcribes about 4,500 company calls each earnings season, and Premium includes unlimited access to transcripts, with a keyword search across them. A stock page there also lists SEC filings and press releases.

Brief Equity's models are a discounted cash flow and an EV/EBITDA model, driven by your own assumptions: Bear, Base, and Bull scenarios, sensitivity analysis, a Monte Carlo distribution over the inputs, peer comparables, an exit-multiple value on EV/EBITDA, EV/Sales, or EV/EBIT, and versions you save and restore.

Seeking Alpha's valuation tools are a grade and a target. Its Value grade compares a stock's valuation metrics with the other stocks in its sector, and its Quant Ratings FAQ says the grade is not built on a discounted cash flow model. Under its ratings, a stock page shows Wall Street's price target. Its help centre lists no valuation model builder (as of October 2026).

Quarterly 13F filings show who holds a stock and what each fund did last quarter. Open a fund for its portfolio, turnover, 1-year relative performance, and concentration, save the funds you follow into one dashboard, and see ownership filtered to the tickers on your watchlists.

Seeking Alpha's help centre points to an Ownership section on a stock's Summary tab and an Ownership view in a portfolio. It lists no fund portfolio pages (as of October 2026).

Brief Equity covers US and international stocks on 60+ exchanges. Every stock page has four tabs: Overview, Charts, Financials, and Dividends. Financials hold the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow, with 20 years of annual statements, 40 quarters, and a trailing-twelve-month column. Charts carry price with volume, moving averages, and Bollinger bands, plus panes for P/E, EV/EBITDA, and other multiples.

Brief Equity reads the market too: an overview dashboard, the earnings week for the whole market with the tickers you track marked, and news, filing, insider, and analyst streams across every ticker. Filings, insider trades, and 13F ownership come from SEC records.

Seeking Alpha's About page describes a platform for US-traded stocks and ETFs. Its statements run 10 years for Premium and PRO subscribers and 5 years for other accounts, and its Quant Ratings cover about 5,600 stocks, ADRs included, and not stocks trading on foreign exchanges (as of October 2026).

Brief Equity is one plan with everything included: a 10-day free trial with no card, then $38/mo billed annually ($48/mo monthly). Seeking Alpha has a free Basic account, Premium at $299 a year plus taxes and VAT where they apply, and PRO, a higher plan whose price its pages do not show. A free account reads one Premium article a month, and Quant Ratings and 10 years of statements sit on the paid plans (as of October 2026).
