What goes into every brief
Free AI tools answer questions when you remember to ask. EarlyTape comes to you, knows what you own, and keeps score of itself.
01
Why it moved
Each move split into market, sector and company. When there's no clear reason, we say so instead of inventing one.
02
Thesis & goal tracker
Write down why you own a stock, or what you want from it. Every brief checks it against the news and price: intact or broken, on track or reached.
03
Signal, not noise
Every stock is ranked Material, Watch or Quiet. Quiet days take 30 seconds to read.
04
The one thingComing soon
The single development that matters most across your whole watchlist, like three holdings sharing one risk.
05
Sources on every claim
Every fact links to the SEC filing it came from. Anything we can't source, we don't print.
06
Earnings kitsComing soon
Before a report: expectations, implied move, what to listen for. After: what changed, including management's tone.
07
Filings radar
Insider buying and selling, earnings releases and other 8-Ks, pulled straight from SEC EDGAR.
08
A public track recordComing soon
Every stock we flag as Watch gets scored afterwards, and the hit rate is published for anyone to check.
09
Built around youComing soon
Pick your delivery time, a 2-minute or deep read, and long-term or active framing.

Questions
Is this investment advice?
No. EarlyTape explains what happened and lays out both sides. It never tells you to buy or sell, and it isn't tailored to your finances.
Which markets do you cover?
US-listed stocks and ETFs at launch. More markets will follow.
What does the free plan include?
A brief every weekday morning before the market opens, covering up to 2 stocks: why each one moved, with sources, plus a check on one thesis or goal. Your first brief lands the next weekday morning. No card needed. Pro adds up to 30 stocks and a thesis or goal check on every one.
When do Pro and Premium open?
After the free brief has run for a while. Subscribers hear first, and can upgrade from any brief.
Where does the information come from?
Public SEC filings (earnings releases, 8-Ks, insider trades) and closing prices from IEX. Every claim in a brief links to its source. More sources, like earnings calendars and news, come later.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Paid plans are month to month or yearly, and you can cancel in two clicks.
