Beligator is an investment research service. It scores stocks, ETFs, mutual funds and crypto on one 0–100 scale, explains each score in plain English, and publishes a monthly track record of how its top-rated picks performed.

Self-directed investors who choose their own investments, especially people who hold more than one type of asset and want one place to research them.

No. Beligator provides research scores and data to help you make your own decisions. It doesn’t know your goals, timeline or tax situation, so it can’t tell you what’s right for you.

We’re planning to launch in July 2027. Waitlist members get early access and founding-member pricing first.

No. Beligator links you to brokerages and exchanges where an asset trades, and you buy through your own account there.

Every eligible asset in a class is scored on several factors, such as momentum, quality, cost or stability. Each factor is ranked against peers, then combined with published weights into one 0–100 score. See the full methodology.

75–100 is Top rated, 60–74 Favorable, 45–59 Neutral and 0–44 Weak. A high score means an asset is strong relative to its board right now. It isn’t a guarantee.

Not directly. Scores rank assets against others on the same board. To weigh assets across types, compare their returns, risk and cost side by side, which the Compare tool does for up to 10 assets.

It didn’t pass our eligibility rules, for example too little trading, a pending delisting, or a security flag on a crypto token. The reason is shown next to it, and it’s scored again once the issue clears.

The asset has under 3 years of price history, so its score is less reliable. We show it with a label and pull it slightly toward neutral.

Stock, ETF and crypto scores update throughout the day as prices and news come in. Mutual fund scores update once a day, after funds report their prices.

No. Nobody can pay to change a score or its place on a board. If we ever earn referral fees from brokerages or exchanges, we’ll disclose it, and it won’t affect any score.

Every month we publish how the top-rated picks did compared with the board average, including the months they didn’t win. The first results publish the month we launch.
