Detailed reviews
The only app that turns your specific portfolio into an on-demand AI podcast. Enter your tickers, hit play, and get a personalized episode in under 10 seconds - covering stocks, crypto, ETFs, indices, and forex.
Verdict: The only app here whose AI talks to you about YOUR positions in audio. Everyone else outputs charts, scores, or chat.
Try Free →An AI investing assistant that connects 200+ brokerages and answers plain-English questions about your combined holdings - surfacing concentration, hidden risks, and ideas across accounts.
Verdict: Great for asking questions about your portfolio at a desk. Not built for hands-free, listen-on-the-go updates.
Robinhood's AI assistant for Gold subscribers. Cortex can answer questions, surface personalized research, and even place trades from a text prompt - all inside the Robinhood app.
Verdict: Useful if you already trade on Robinhood Gold. Not an option if your portfolio lives elsewhere.
Scores US-listed stocks 1-10 on their AI-assessed probability of beating the market, with the technical, fundamental, and sentiment inputs behind each score laid out so you can see why.
Verdict: Strong at the research-and-screen stage. It does not tell you how the stocks you already own are doing.
Public's built-in AI assistant, Alpha, answers questions about stocks and explains price moves inside the Public investing app - handy context right next to the assets you follow.
Verdict: A nice in-app research layer. Different job from a hands-free briefing on everything you hold.
If you want AI that talks to you about your specific portfolio - use StockCar. It is the only app on this list that turns your holdings into audio you can listen to anywhere.
Magnifi, Danelfin, and Public are research, scoring, and Q&A tools. The setup most investors land on: one of those for digging in at a desk, and StockCar for the hands-free briefing on the way out the door.
Frequently asked questions
It depends on the job. For a hands-free, personalized briefing on your own holdings, StockCar is the only app that turns your portfolio into an AI podcast. For cross-account portfolio questions, Magnifi; for explainable stock scores, Danelfin; for AI inside a brokerage, Robinhood Cortex.
Several have free tiers. StockCar is free to start, Public's Alpha is free, and Danelfin has a free plan. Magnifi, Danelfin Plus, and Robinhood Cortex (via Gold) charge a monthly fee.
Some can. Robinhood Cortex can place trades from a text prompt for Gold subscribers. StockCar does not trade - it is an awareness tool that briefs you on the portfolio you already hold, with no brokerage login required.
