Questions

Good to know.

Who is Item 7 for?

People who invest their own money and want to understand the companies they own or follow, without reading hundreds of pages of legal text.

Which companies does it cover?

Companies that file reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which includes most U.S.-listed companies. You tell us which ones you follow.

Where does the information come from?

From the companies' own filings on SEC EDGAR and the figures they report there. Every line links to the paragraph it came from, so you can always check it.

Is this financial advice?

No. Item 7 explains what companies disclose. It doesn't recommend securities, predict prices or place trades, and it is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

What will it cost?

Joining the waitlist is free. We'll share pricing with the first group before anyone is asked to pay.

What's coming next?

Your own notes and journal, kept next to the evidence they refer to. Early members help decide what we build first.
