The Best Public Portfolio Tracker: 50+ Features Beyond Public's Built-In Tools
Your money stays at Public. Stock Unlock adds the analytics layer for smarter portfolio decisions.
No credit card required. Works with IRAs, 401(k)s, and brokerage accounts.
Public.com Analytics Gaps Are Real
Public is a solid brokerage, but its portfolio analytics leave gaps. If any of these sound familiar, Stock Unlock fills them.
Alpha Analytics Behind a Paywall
Public's best analytics features (Alpha) require a premium subscription. Basic users get minimal portfolio insights. Stock Unlock provides 50+ portfolio features with a generous free tier and a 15-day full-access trial when you connect your brokerage.
Limited built-in dividend forecasting
Public shows dividend history but doesn't project future income. No safety scoring, no payout sustainability analysis, no 12-month income forecasts. Stock Unlock's dividend tools forecast the next 12 months of payouts, track 35+ years of history per stock, and score payout sustainability.
Limited built-in multi-factor stock scoring
Public provides some analyst ratings but no systematic scoring across valuation, profitability, financial health, growth, dividends, management quality, and analyst consensus. Stock Unlock's Stock Scores cover all 7 categories with visual indicators for every holding in your portfolio.
Limited built-in unified multi-broker view
Investors with assets across multiple institutions often use a separate combined-portfolio dashboard. Stock Unlock connects to 30+ brokerages and merges everything into one Combined Portfolio view with unified allocation context.
Limited Account Types
Public primarily offers individual taxable accounts. If you have retirement accounts elsewhere, it can be harder to see your full financial picture. Stock Unlock pulls in IRAs, 401(k)s, and brokerage accounts from multiple providers so you can see your total portfolio in one place.
Basic Screener for Stock Discovery
Public's screener is focused on trending stocks and themes, not fundamental analysis. Missing valuation, financial health, and growth filters for serious research. Stock Unlock's screener covers 100,000+ stocks with 85+ filters across 70+ exchanges.

Why We Do It This Way
Most portfolio trackers want your credit card before you connect a brokerage. We're confident enough in our product that we flip that model. Connect first, see the value, then decide if it's worth $9/month to you. We have a 30-day money-back guarantee too.
