# Invest Copilot — Vision & Positioning
## One-Liner
AI-native investment research and portfolio copilot for retail investors who want institutional-grade intelligence.
## The Problem
Retail investors have three choices:
1. **Free but shallow** — Yahoo Finance, Finviz, TradingView (free tier). No AI analysis. No alternative data. No smart alerts.
2. **Expensive & clunky** — Bloomberg Terminal ($25k/year), Koyfin ($300+/year), Morningstar. Legacy UI. No AI.
3. **Manual** — Read SEC filings, scan Reddit, track options flow across 10+ tabs. Time-inefficient, emotion-driven.

## Target User
- Self-directed retail investors with $5k-$500k portfolios
- Tech-comfortable (use Robinhood, Webull, or similar)
- Want institutional-grade data without institutional price tags
- Active traders (swing trading, position trading)
- Value-time-rich (willing to research but want tools to accelerate)
## Core Principles
1. **Data depth first** — Better data than free tools, approachable pricing
2. **AI as amplifier, not replacement** — LLMs synthesize, humans decide
3. **Mobile-first PWA** — Works on phone, tablet, desktop. No app store dependency.
4. **Open data, open strategies** — Community-contributed strategies (like TradingView's Pine Script)
5. **Privacy-first** — Watchlists, strategies, and alerts are private
