Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between A and A+?

A+ indicates higher conviction with typically 80%+ confidence and both AIs strongly agreeing. A grades show positive outlook with 60-80% confidence or minor disagreement between models.

Are A grades reliable?

AI grades analyze objective SEC filing data but cannot predict market movements. Use them as research starting points alongside your own due diligence.

How is the A grade calculated?

Both Claude and ChatGPT independently analyze SEC 10-K and 10-Q filings. Grades are combined based on agreement level and confidence scores.
