The problem

Public data. Private context.

SEC EDGAR is transparent and relentless. The hard part is knowing which filings deserve attention because they intersect with the portfolio in front of you.

~4,200 Form 4 filings every week

EDGAR is public and exhaustive. Most filings are routine, scheduled, or too detached from the tickers an investor actually owns.

0 Context in generic trackers

Most insider tools show everything first. TickerBeacon starts with your holdings and suppresses background noise by default.

1 Question worth answering

What happened in insider activity today that changes the way I should read my portfolio or watchlist?

How it works

Four steps from filing to focus.

EDGAR / INGEST / RANK / ALERT

01 Portfolio

Bring your book

Paste tickers, upload a CSV, or connect read-only eToro sync. Holdings become the first filter before any signal is ranked.

02 Worker

Ingest every Form 4

The worker polls EDGAR, normalizes transactions, deduplicates filings, and stores insider activity against issuer history.

The desk

Operational, not promotional.

No chart theater. Every row carries a fact: who filed, transaction direction, aggregate value, filing date, and whether the event is worth observing.

Features

Built like a research tool. Priced like one.

Six things a portfolio-aware insider feed should do. Nothing it should not.

Portfolio-aware ranking

Core

Signals are ranked against your own holdings and watchlist first. Tickers you do not own can stay out of the way.

Trust and legal

Calm urgency, quiet promises.

Insider data is powerful enough without pretending it is a money machine. TickerBeacon stays grounded in source filings and user-controlled decisions.

Not investment advice

TickerBeacon is a research and decision-support tool. It does not issue buy or sell recommendations.

AI summaries can be wrong

Briefs are model-generated and link back to SEC filings so every investor can verify the source.

No trade execution

Broker integrations are read-only. TickerBeacon does not place orders or change positions.

EDGAR source of truth

Signals come from public SEC Form 4 filings, normalized and enriched for portfolio context.

FAQ

Reasonable questions.

Short answers for the things investors usually want clear before they trust an alerting surface.

What does insider conviction mean? +

TickerBeacon scores Form 4 clusters by insider count, role seniority, trade type, aggregate value, and how unusual the behavior is compared with baseline activity.

Does TickerBeacon trade for me? +

No. It ranks and explains signals so you can decide what to investigate. It is not a broker and does not execute orders.

Do I have to use eToro? +

No. You can paste tickers, upload a CSV, or add holdings manually. eToro sync is for investors who already use it and want read-only updates.

What does the AI do? +

It turns normalized filing data into a short brief with the source facts, the scoring rationale, and the conditions that would weaken the signal.

Where does the data come from? +

TickerBeacon treats SEC EDGAR Form 4 filings as source-of-truth, then normalizes, deduplicates, enriches, and links back to the original filings.
