24 alternatives to Chex
Hi HN — I’m the founder of ChexHQ. We’re building a financial decision intelligence platform for finance teams that are tired of spreadsheet-heavy forecasting and manual consolidation. The goal: help finance leaders get real-time visibility into runway, cash flow, and key metrics without building complex models from scratch. We’re early and would love feedback — especially from CFOs, finance managers, or operators here. What would make something like this genuinely useful for you?

Quick background: I used to code. Studied it in school, wrote some projects, but eventually convinced myself I wasn't cut out for it. Too slow, too many bugs, imposter syndrome — the usual story. So I pivoted, ended up as an investment associate at an early-stage angel fund, and haven't written real code in years. Fast forward to now. I'm a Buffett nerd — big believer in compound interest as a mental model for life. I run compound interest calculations constantly. Not because I need to, but because watching numbers grow over 30-40 years keeps me patient when markets get wild. It's basically…

Ray▲293I've been using this daily for 4 months and figured others might find it useful. This is my first open source project so would love any feedback. Ray connects to your bank via Plaid, stores everything in an encrypted local SQLite database, and lets you ask questions about your finances in natural language. No cloud, no account, your data is stored on your machine. Before anything reaches the LLM, all PII is stripped — your name, companies, transaction details are redacted and replaced with tokens, then rehydrated locally in the response. The AI never sees who you are.

Fey 2.0▲389Hello! I built a stock screener (yes, powered by AI) that's fast and accurate. Every AI finance tool that tries to do this has stale data or relies too much on web search. We took a different approach. We're indexing all financial and price data in real time and searching on that. The benefit is you can input any granular query instead of fixed dropdowns and it's simply easier to type out what you want then going through a bunch of inputs. Example of queries that would work well: - Companies with over $10b in revenue and a 10% growth rate and sort them by P/E ratio - AI stocks with…

Some technical context on what we ran into building this. MCP tools don't really work for financial data at scale. One tool call for five years of daily prices dumps tens of thousands of tokens into the context window. And data vendors pack dozens of tools into a single MCP server, schemas alone can eat 50k+ tokens before the agent does anything useful. So we auto-generate typed Python modules from the MCP schemas at workspace init and upload them into the sandbox. The agent just imports them like a normal library. Only a one-line summary per server stays in the prompt. We have around 80…

Amsflow▲120Hi HN, I’m Ajay Thakur, founder & CEO of Amsflow. Why I built this. Most stock screeners I have used are over complicated, full of nested dropdowns and endless options and force you to remember arcane syntax. I never really got into any screener, so I built one that just works. What this is. Amsflow Global Stock Screener unifies 550 plus financial metrics and approximately 8,000 filters across all major markets in one seamless interface. You can perform natural language AI queries via our Lisa agent (for example, “Find fintech firms with more than 5 B revenue, 20 percent year on year growth,…

Hey HN, we built an Econ+Finance database to let AI agents do investment research. We spend a lot of tokens to organize macro releases and SEC filings into a clean format, so that your agents have more context to do actual analysis. The problem AI agents are great at data analysis. But they become ineffective if most of their context window is spent on gathering and cleaning data, instead of validating hypotheses. Data in the wild is messy and rarely standardized. Definitions and measurements change over time. This problem is compounded by a fragmented data universe. Point solutions exist…

Hi, my name is Kam, and today my cofounder Josh and I are shipping Finterm, a CLI that gives coding agents direct access to financial data: stock prices, options data, SEC filings, and Ticker Deep Research, a filtered ticker news search. I’m a developer and have been a full-time trader for the past few years.Recently I have been using LLMs more and more in my trading and strategy. I always found it frustrating that Claude Code or GPT did not have direct access to actual financial information and had to rely on web search, so it couldn’t get me more granular numbers for specific options…

hey y'all -- can you please tell us if our job search tool sucks? :D we built it using an investor platform called Harmonic.ai to gather startup data, then contextualize it so that job seekers could find out about the most exciting startups hiring first (like if they just raised, growing headcount fast, have an ex-unicorn founder, etc). pretty sure we're the first platform doing anything like this. anyway, let me know what you think. really excited to launch this thing soon! getting feedback from the hn community first is really fun :)

I posted this a few weeks ago and the server died under the traffic. Fixed that by adding an in-mem caching layer with Redis/valkey and added CloudFront caching for static content. Also upgraded the server. Also fixed the Firefox bugs, trying again. It's a research tool for US stocks. Financials for ~10k companies pulled from SEC filings. You can chart any metric across companies, filter news by ticker, ask questions in plain English and get a chart back. There's also SQL console against the whole database, which is the part I like to use together with the AI chat (generates an SQL…

CeFinan▲8I made this project to help investors cut through the noise and make smarter decisions using clear, data-driven insights. Most stock and crypto tools overwhelm users with raw data — I wanted to create something that simplifies analysis without sacrificing depth. CeFinan lets you audit your portfolio with an AI-powered Health Score based on 8 key criteria, including news sentiment and advanced financial indicators. I also built a Correlation tool that shows how stocks move together, helping users spot hidden risks or diversification opportunities. The Growth section visualizes performance…
