Most investment tools on the market cater to either casual users looking for quick tips or advanced traders buried in complex dashboards.

The space between those two extremes is largely underserved. Retail investors who want to make disciplined, fundamentals-based decisions often find themselves navigating platforms filled with hype, social noise, and trend-chasing incentives that work against long-term thinking. Brigades set out to create a product that puts financial fundamentals at the center of the experience, while also introducing a social layer that encourages accountability rather than speculation.

The challenge was building something that felt approachable enough for everyday investors while maintaining the analytical depth needed to support informed decision-making.

Brigades partnered with us to design and develop a mobile experience that brings structure and transparency to personal investing.

The app allows users to connect their brokerage accounts from platforms like Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Robinhood, E*Trade, Interactive Brokers, and Firstrade, giving them a unified view of their holdings scored against real financial data. A proprietary Compatibility Score evaluates every stock on a scale based purely on fundamentals, removing the guesswork and emotional bias that often drive retail investment decisions.

Users can also form groups called Brigades, where they follow, join, or lead communities to share strategies, compare portfolios, and learn from each other. The experience was designed to be clean and distraction-free, reinforcing the product’s core principle: focus on facts, not feelings.

The final product delivers a focused, fundamentals-first investment experience that stands apart from the noise-driven platforms dominating the market.

By combining brokerage integration, proprietary scoring, and social accountability into a single app, Brigades gives users a structured way to evaluate stocks, track performance, and grow alongside a like-minded community. The app launched on both the App Store and Google Play, earning a 5-star rating and attracting early adoption from investors looking for a more disciplined approach to building their portfolios.
