Products that do what Say what matters to you, get a diversified portfolio that reflects it does
I built this after realizing my index fund owned companies I'd never choose to support, and there was no easy way to do anything about it. Sylph lets you specify what you want to avoid (and what you want to support), then generates a diversified portfolio of individual stocks based on your priorities. Working demo, no account needed — just try it. Still early and actively building, so feedback is very welcome.

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…

For years, I have struggled to understand my cash flow and save for the future. In addition to that, my wife has many credit cards and accounts that complicate matters. I am building a tool that connects all our accounts, helps us create a budget, and tracks and adjusts expenses on the fly. I am also sprinkling some AI magic on it for financial suggestions. I am looking for feedback on the implementation. More importantly, I am looking for more beta testers to improve the product.

I was a software engineer at a late stage startup and was caught in a layoff this January. When I looked into exercising my options or getting liquidity, I realized the secondary market is a total black box. Liquidity funds spend a fortune on Google Ads just to find people like us. Those high marketing costs eventually come out of our pockets in the form of higher fees and worse terms. I built StrikeRates to change that. The site is meant to be a central resource for anyone navigating this. I included a Liquidity 101 section that explains the different financial vehicles because that…

Hello - I’m the founder of Frec. We built a direct indexing product that lets you tax loss harvest the S&P 500 or the S&P Information Technology indexes for a low 0.10% fee and a minimum deposit of $20k. You can start your direct index with cash or contribute stock you already have. Our historical simulations based on 20-years of data show that we harvest ~40% of every deposit back in capital losses over a period of 5 years. I linked to a live demo account with a real $50k deposit made on Dec 5, 2023. The account shows that our trades track the S&P very closely. As of January 21, our direct…
