Without adding some sort of no-signup use or free tier, this looks dead on arrival. It's not clear what value add you're providing over existing options like Google Finance, Yahoo Finance, and a lot of smaller sites. As is, there's nothing compelling enough to make me want to take the high-friction step of signing up for a trial. I understand the motivation, a lot of existing options aren't particularly good in varying ways. I just don't see any real differentiation here.

Thank you so much for sharing these feedback and I appreciate the insight. I'm curious how much time you have spent on Yahoo Finance or Google Finance, almost everyone who uses those tools for over a day finds Stock Unlock and usually ends up subscribing since we are just worlds away from what they offer. We are totally free to try/you can even type in a fake email, so I'd be curious to hear more of your thoughts after you try out our tool. I am not here to brag about numbers, but our growth/number subscribers backs up our own angst/annoyances we had as founders that every single tool out there today whether it's free or paid cannot do simple things like: "Show me Google/Apple/MSFT revenue for last 20 years graphed together, okay now lets throw price to sales in there", you can do this on our platform in 60s in the free form tool. Further, for anyone that spends a lot of time investing/analyzing companies, YF and Google Finance just don't cut it. We are gaining subscribers daily that are leaving those platforms since they believe (and our telling us) how much value they are getting from our platform, at a price that is lower than anyone else (we care about our users free cash flow) I really don't mean to come out here and sell, but I believe if you used our tool you would see/feel that we are not the same as the sites you quoted. Again/to reiterate, your opinion is appreciated and thank you for taking the time to comment and share your thoughts :)
