Day 7 building an investment tool from scratch

The machine is moving forward and we’ve got a lot more done. Production is speeding up.

Once you’re able to nail the primitives, the design tokens and a few basic rules, pages come together like hotcakes.

The hardest part is really knowing what you want to build and how. Knowing what the right UX is and what deserves the details.

Most of the work now is designing the experience down to the last detail.

Iterate, test, change, repeat.

💡 Design tip: ask for six variations of what you want to make.

From there, refine, ask for more variations based on what you like best from each one, etc.

Other important things that were already done in the previous days and are crucial for shaping the experience are clearly defining your avatar, the MVP and the offer. They’re crucial and rarely mentioned.

🎯 Let’s remember the goal: build the best tool for discovering and following special situations

If you’re interested, I’ll share the link to the landing page in the next tweet. The waitlist is free; the first 20 get the launch price: $20/month instead of $29.

It might go up over time.

Leave me your email and I'll let you know when I publish something new.

📊 I’m building a portfolio analysis tool from scratch!

I’ve added lots of improvements and features. It’s getting easier to use, and it’s already replacing the other tools I used before.

    For the curious:

    This tool is still in development... BUT if you want to discover other really interesting investing tools, you can check out my other platform: Find My Moat.

    It’s already live, and tomorrow we’re doing the official launch on Product Hunt!

My new project 👇

I’ve wanted to build a tool for investors for a while, but I didn’t want to make the usual thing.

I didn’t want to build another portfolio management tool or another TIKR redesign.

I wanted to make something a bit more original 👀

☀️ The FactSet $FDS thesis is now available for anyone interested

Did this company really deserve to be down 50%? 🩸

The market usually makes two mistakes: overvaluing mediocre businesses or undervaluing great franchises when a real threat emerges.
