Seeking Alpha's Quant Rating and EquityBias both turn a lot of data into a short answer per stock. The answers are different in kind. The Quant Rating tells you where a stock sits between Strong Sell and Strong Buy. EquityBias tells you what price structure, news, analyst ratings and fundamentals are saying about it, and how far those four disagree, then leaves the call to you.
Score the stocks you own, free
The disagreement is its own number. Next to every Bias Score sits a divergence score from 0 to 100: how far the four layers of data behind it pull apart. A +20 where everything quietly agrees and a +20 where two layers fight two others are different stocks, and you see which one you have.
It moves with the market every trading day. Price structure, news, analyst ratings and fundamentals are read again every trading day, so the picture changes when the market does, not only when a company files new figures.
No verdict on the stock. We do not call anything a buy or a sell, outperform or underperform, cheap or expensive. You see what the data says and where it splits, and the decision stays yours.
Free to start, on the stocks you already own. Name up to five stocks and see their Bias Score and divergence straight away. No account and no card to begin.
The Quant Rating gives each stock a rating from Strong Sell to Strong Buy and a score from 1.0 to 5.0. It is built from five factor grades, Value, Growth, Profitability, Momentum and EPS Revisions, each graded from A+ to F against the other stocks in its sector. Seeking Alpha notes that the overall rating is not a simple average of the factor grades.
Ratings update once a day before the market opens. Stocks with no sell-side analyst coverage are not rated, and the Quant Ratings and Factor Grades are shown to paying subscribers.

Your broker is where you trade. EquityBias is built to be the screen open beside it: the stocks you own or follow, each with its Bias Score and divergence, the day's market overview and the news on the same page. You read what the data says, then you go back to your platform and decide.
Start free with five names and no account. The Trader plan holds thirty of your own stocks and imports your list straight from a broker, so the dashboard is your portfolio from the first day, not a list of somebody else's ideas.

Seeking Alpha suits someone who wants a ranked opinion across the market, with a long library of articles and analysis behind it.
EquityBias suits someone who wants to see the evidence on the stocks they already hold, including the news, and to notice when that evidence stops agreeing before deciding anything.
