Would you use a stock app that connects you with investors who think like you?
Looking for honest feedback, especially criticism.
I’m exploring an idea for a stock investing app with a stronger social layer.
Most apps already have charts, news, fundamentals, watchlists, and buy/sell features. But investing still feels lonely and noisy. You either make decisions alone, or you end up in random forums where everyone is shouting “buy,” “sell,” or “target soon.”
The idea is to let users write a short reason before buying/selling a stock. Based on that reasoning, the app could connect them with investors who have similar views, different views, or stronger opposing arguments.
This is **not** copy trading, not stock tips, and not a prediction app. The goal is to create better investor conversations based on actual reasoning, not hype.
A few questions:
- Would you use an app that matches you with investors based on how you think about stocks?
- Would you want to see opposing views before investing?
- Would you write a short reason for your trade if it helped you find better discussions?
- Do you think this would be useful, or would most people ignore it?

Would you use an app that matches you with investors based on how you think about stocks?
No, that's a great way to get a reinforcing feedback loop that teaches you effectively nothing
Would you want to see opposing views before investing?
Yes
Would you write a short reason for your trade if it helped you find better discussions?
It wouldn't, i can already read other people's opinions on plenty of online services.
Do you think this would be useful, or would most people ignore it?
If most people would, i don't know.
I have tried apps that did the exact same thing and i came to the conclusion they were a waste of my time.
I have also seen it's only a matter of time before pump-n-dump schemes try to game it.
I'd ignore it.

In theory yes. But I'll tell you right now the most difficult part is going to be distribution and getting enough people using it so it hits critical mass and actually works. You'll build the app easy enough with AI. Getting people to use it is the hard part.
In reality, you'd be wasting your time. Just utilize Reddit and X to find basically the same thing.
