The best Autopilot alternatives

Autopilot alternatives are searched for two quite different reasons. Some people want the same idea somewhere else — an app that mirrors a politician's portfolio automatically. Others got as far as linking a brokerage account, found they could not establish what it costs first, and decided they would rather just see the filings and make their own call.

7 options below, including ours: the ones closest to what Autopilot is actually for, ordered by how close — not ranked best to worst. The right pick depends on whether your problem is choosing stocks, following them, or tracking a portfolio. We compare 24 tools in all.

7 alternatives to Autopilot

AI stock tracker
Our app
StockPlus
A daily AI market briefing, a real-time watchlist with a 0–100 Pulse Score, price alerts, and congressional and insider trade feeds.
Best for
Keeping up in two minutes a day
Free tier
Yes
Paid from
$2.99/mo Pro
See what StockPlus does
Social investing app
Blossom
A social investing app where members link real portfolios and publish what they actually hold, wrapped around dividend and ETF tracking and a learning feed.
Best for
Community, and the transparency behind it. Blossom members publish real portfolios rather than opinions, which is a genuinely different thing from an analyst rating — Apple named it a Top 25 App of 2025, and it carries 4.8 stars across 2.9K ratings with over 500,000 investors. StockPlus has no social layer at all and is not trying to build one.
Free tier
Yes — free to use, with in-app purchases
Paid from
PRO $8.99/mo or $59.99/yr; Pro Plus $19.99/mo or $119.99/yr, as of August 2026
Compare with StockPlus
Retail social sentiment network
Stocktwits
A social network for traders, where each ticker has a live message stream and a crowd-sourced bullish or bearish sentiment reading.
Best for
Live crowd reaction. When a ticker is moving and you want to know what retail thinks right now, nothing in StockPlus replaces a Stocktwits stream. Sentiment velocity is a real signal and they own it.
Free tier
Yes
Paid from
Ad-free about $8/mo, Edge about $22.95/mo, as of August 2026
Compare with StockPlus
Portfolio performance and tax reporting
Sharesight
A portfolio tracker built for reporting — automatic dividend and corporate-action handling, benchmarking, and capital-gains and tax reports across multiple markets.
Best for
Knowing what your portfolio actually did. Sharesight handles dividends, share splits and corporate actions automatically, imports trade confirmations from broker emails, benchmarks against an index, and produces the tax and capital-gains reports people genuinely file with. StockPlus does none of this and has no plans to.
Free tier
Yes — 1 portfolio and 10 holdings
Paid from
Starter $7/mo, Standard $18/mo, Premium $23.25/mo billed annually — $9.33, $24 and $31 billed monthly, in USD — as of August 2026
Compare with StockPlus
Congressional trade disclosure tracker
Capitol Trades
A free website that publishes US congressional stock trade disclosures, browsable by politician, by issuer and by filing.
Best for
The data, and the price. Capitol Trades presents congressional disclosures more thoroughly than StockPlus does — per-politician and per-issuer pages, filterable filings — and it costs nothing to browse. If you want to research who traded what, go there and do not pay anyone.
Free tier
The whole site is free to browse
Paid from
No consumer subscription — free to browse, as of August 2026
Compare with StockPlus
Free stock research website
Stock Analysis
A fast, ad-supported research site covering financials, screeners and forecasts for global stocks and funds, with a cheap Pro tier that removes the ads and the limits.
Best for
Data depth, and price. Coverage of 130,000+ global stocks and funds, financial history going back 10 to 40 years, 300+ indicators, ETF holdings and full corporate actions — and a free tier that, by their own account, over five million investors use each month without paying. On raw financial data StockPlus is not in the same category.
Free tier
Yes — free forever, with no payment details required
Paid from
Pro $6.58/mo billed annually ($79/yr) or $9.99/mo; Unlimited $16.58/mo billed annually, as of August 2026
Compare with StockPlus
Research and analytics terminal
Koyfin
A web research terminal aimed at serious investors and financial advisors — charting, dashboards, financials, estimates and portfolio analytics in one workspace.
Best for
Depth of research workspace. Ten years of financials and estimates, ETF holdings, custom formulas and financial templates, macro dashboards, and advisor tooling with client reporting and custodian integration. It is a genuine Bloomberg-alternative workflow for people who do this professionally, and StockPlus does not attempt any of it.
Free tier
Yes — 2 watchlists, 2 screens and 2 custom dashboards, with 2Y financials
Paid from
Plus $39/mo, Premium $79/mo, Advisor Core $209/mo, with an annual plan stated to save up to 30%, as of August 2026

Questions people ask

What is the best Autopilot alternative that does not trade for me?

StockPlus shows congressional and insider filings as feeds with push alerts on iOS and Android, and never connects to a brokerage. Capitol Trades is free to browse on the web, and Quiver Quantitative is the deepest on the dataset.

Is there a free way to follow the trades Autopilot mirrors?

Yes — the disclosures are public records. The House and Senate publish them, Capitol Trades is free to browse, and StockPlus carries a congressional feed on its free tier. What none of them do is place the trade for you.

What is a cheaper Autopilot alternative?

Hard to answer honestly, because Autopilot's price is not published as of August 2026. What can be said is that StockPlus Pro is $2.99/mo and the congressional feed is free — and that a monitoring app and a copy-trading service are not the same purchase.

Before mirroring anyone's trades, it is worth knowing how old these filings are by the time anybody — including us — can act on them: congress stock trades, explained.
