Feather – Bloomberg Terminal for Retail Traders (Re-Launch After Overhaul)

Hey Hacker News!

My friend and I have been working on a comprehensive investment research platform — Feather.

We launched our waitlist on HN two weeks ago and received lots of feedback. With this in mind, we went back to the drawing board, wrote thousands of lines of code, and added a bunch of features. We’re now thrilled to share what we’ve been working on.

Our updated platform covers 48,000 companies, 180,000 options, 3,500,000 bonds, 3,000 commodities, 11,000 institutions, 10,000 individuals, and 24 countries. Feather allows you to discover, analyze, and identify winning trades ahead of the market.

Excited to re-launch Feather’s early-access waitlist with revamped features and share with the HN community.

Check it out!

I already don’t like it. The screenshots alone looks like excel spreadsheets. It’s like grabbing a bunch of data and dumping them onto a spreadsheet and calling it a Bloomberg alternative

Wow! You’ve certainly added a lot. Not sure I’d use the new features but it’s nice to know they’re there if needed. Looking great!

How can we give feedback if we can't sign up?

Hey! Happy to help here -- are you having an issue with signing up for the waitlist? If you're looking for the actual software, we'll open access later this year in order of waitlist sign ups.

If you're referring to the feedback we received earlier, it was in reference to the features we described on our pre-launch website :)
