Show HN: Finboard – An Affordable Financial Database
finboard.net
There are similar products on the Internet, but all of them I found just "abstracts" raw information into something.
For example, typical website has "Revenue" as a top-line metrics. In reality, that can be "Total Revenue", "Net Sales", "Operating Revenue", and so on. Those website can't cover exceptional values in same reason.
I believe serious investors need raw financial statements aggregated because each number reflect the companies' financial performance. Major platforms like Bloomberg does that but too expensive for individuals.
That's why I've built "Finboard". You can see the aggregated financial statements like this: https://finboard.net/companies/TSLA/income-statement
The idea also came from "Notion". Notion is a great tool with infinite use cases. I thought it would be great if we can have financial data in a text editor. So I've decided to build Editor & Database platform.
Currently the“Card view”is the most powerful feature. You can screen a company lists (such as all US listed companies), and the result can show financial performance and/or stock price chart like this: https://finboard.net/view/sec?view=a037684a58c448a590e3d3ec5...
You may also find it useful that Japanese companies’ financial information is also available in English on Finboard.
The tech stack is: Next.js with TypeScript on Vercel and MongoDB Atlas.
Open to any questions or feedback. Hope you might find it interesting!
