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: 6 independent alternatives, ordered by how close each one sits to what Autopilot is actually for rather than best to worst, plus our own app, listed on its own so you can tell the two apart. The right pick depends on whether your problem is choosing stocks, following them, or tracking a portfolio. We compare 37 tools in all.
Where Autopilot still wins
Actually doing it. Autopilot is the only product in this comparison set that executes: you pick a Pilot, allocate an amount, and it places the trades in your own brokerage account without you doing anything. If your problem is that you read about a trade and then never act on it, that is a real problem and Autopilot genuinely solves it. Stockplus will only ever tell you.
If that is the part you rely on, staying put is a reasonable answer, and nothing below is an upgrade on it.

6 alternatives to Autopilot
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
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
Portfolio performance and tax reporting
Sharesight
A portfolio tracker built for reporting, with 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
Free Android congress-trade tracker
Capitol Trades Tracker
A free Android app that organises US congressional stock disclosures into a searchable feed, with a link to the original government filing on every row.
- Best for
- Being free and linking its sources. There is no subscription, no paywall and no upsell: the listing says "No subscriptions. No hidden fees." Every trade it shows links straight back to the Senate EFD or House Clerk record it came from, and its AI context flags are labelled as automated analysis rather than fact. That is more sourcing discipline than most paid products manage.
- Free tier
- The whole app is free: "No subscriptions. No hidden fees."
- Paid from
- None. Free, with no in-app purchases, as of August 2026
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
Research and analytics terminal
Koyfin
A web research terminal aimed at serious investors and financial advisors, with 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 $3.99/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.
