Common Questions

Everything You Want to
Know Before Switching

Is QuantSquawk a Finviz alternative?
For a different job. Finviz is a screener and visualization tool — heat maps, filters, charts over static market data. QuantSquawk doesn't screen anything; it scores real Tier-1 news headlines with an AI market-impact estimate the moment they're published. Traders often use Finviz to find candidates and a scored news feed like QuantSquawk to know what's moving them right now.
Can I use QuantSquawk alongside Finviz?
Yes — they're complementary. Finviz surfaces what to look at from static data; QuantSquawk tells you what just happened in the news and how much it's estimated to matter, in real time.
Do I need an account or credit card to start?
No. Open quantsquawk.com in your browser and you're live. No signup, no email, no credit card. The full free tier — Tier 1 feed, AI scoring, audio — is immediately accessible.
How accurate is the AI impact scoring?
The AI scores are directional sentiment signals and market-impact estimates — not trade signals or a trading system. We track scored Tier-1 headlines against the actual price moves that follow, and publish hits and misses alike as the record builds. Treat the output as one input in your process, not financial advice.
