I built a Bloomberg-style finance terminal aimed at individual investors and developers.

The goal is to make institutional-style market tooling accessible without the $20k/year Bloomberg subscription.

Current features: - Real-time market data - Terminal-style UI inspired by Bloomberg - Company fundamentals and financials - Macro and economic indicators - Watchlists and alerts - Fast keyboard navigation - Options real time data and analysis

I'm exploring features like: - options analytics - portfolio analytics - AI-assisted research - scripting/API access

Would love feedback from the HN community on: - features you'd want in a terminal like this - data sources - UX improvements

} This looks really interesting — especially the goal of making Bloomberg-style tooling accessible without the $20k/year price tag.

Curious about a few things:

1. What’s the source of the real-time market and options data? That’s usually the hardest (and most expensive) part of building something like this. 2. Are you planning to expose scripting / query capabilities similar to Bloomberg’s BQL or a Python API? 3. How are you thinking about latency vs cost tradeoffs for retail users?

If you can get fundamentals, options chains, macro indicators, and alerts into a fast keyboard-driven interface, that could be incredibly powerful for individual investors and indie quants.

Looking forward to seeing how this evolves

Just took a closer look and this is really impressive. The terminal-style workflow and fast navigation make it feel much closer to professional tools than most platforms for individual investors. I especially like how easy it is to scan multiple companies and see key fundamentals quickly without jumping between pages.

One feature that could be interesting later is saved screeners with alerts so users can get notified when companies match specific criteria. Overall, very promising direction.

Just took a look and it seems really solid. I like that you can see the key information for multiple stocks on a single page, that’s something many tools make surprisingly difficult. The UI also feels clean and intuitive.

I have a few suggestions that might be useful as well. Is there a preferred place to send feedback?
