Problem
Stock prices can move quickly and investors need real-time data to react to market volatility in both public and private markets. Unfortunately, information about private securities is limited and can be difficult to find.
Solution
In the fast-paced world of stock trading, timely information is key to success.
StockText plans to help investors to stay ahead with real-time alerts on stock price changes, delivered directly to their phone and email. Whether they are a professional trader or a casual investor, market enthusiasts don’t want to miss out on important market information. StockText intends to provide real-time news, research, and price-change alerts for both public and private securities.
Our goal is to help traders stay ahead with real-time stock alerts that are customizable and tailored to the customer’s needs and that are easy to set up and manage. StockText intends to go beyond basic alerts. Want to be notified when a stock drops below a specific price or rises above a certain threshold? Our aim is to make it possible to tailor your alerts to match your investment strategy and risk preferences.
Technology Strategy
StockText intends to implement the following technology strategy:
Make the Technology Easy to Set Up and Manage: select a stock, choose the type of alert, set your conditions and you’re done. Easily manage your alerts, modify conditions, or delete them at any time.
Provide Text Alerts: Get alerts straight to your phone via SMS. Whether you're at home, in the office, or on the go, you'll be connected to the market.
Deliver Email Notifications: Receive detailed alert notifications in your inbox, complete with insightful data to inform your next move.
Integrate with Social Media: Integrate your social networks with StockText for updates across social media platforms.
Business Model
In order to build its customer base, StockText plans to use a freemium model, where the first tier is free. This tier will include basic news and stock alerts about public and private securities. On top of free tier, the company intends to offer a premium paid subscription, which includes research and analysis of companies and market movements.
Market Opportunity
Investors have a strong appetite for financial news in order to have the information they need to try and trade successfully. As a result, the market for providers of financial data reached $22.1 billion in 2023, according to ibisworld.com. The industry grew by more than 2% in 2023 and increased by almost 5% per year over the past five years.
