Step 1) Get access (beta)
During beta, the terminal is invite-only. Join the waitlist and we'll send access instructions. If you already have a code, use the access page.
Step 2) Learn what the compliance signal means
Before using any "compliance label," understand the two big components: business activity screening and financial ratio screening. Different methodologies can disagree because denominators and thresholds differ.
Step 3) Use the "professional workflow"
The goal is to reduce tool-switching. A simple baseline workflow:
- Search a symbol.
- Verify compliance and read the reasons/ratios.
- Compare alternatives if it's questionable or close to thresholds.
- Save candidates to a watchlist for follow-up.
Step 4) Set up portfolio basics
If you want portfolio-level compliance and purification awareness, create a portfolio, add a few positions, and scan. Keep it simple: start with one portfolio per goal (long-term vs trading).
Common issues
- A symbol shows "questionable": treat this as "review required"; check the reasons and read methodology.
- A result disagrees with another tool: compare denominators (assets vs market cap) and data freshness.
- You want to report an error: use the feedback widget with the symbol and supporting links.
