Tapeboard is a professional-grade market terminal that runs in a web browser. It combines a real-time stock scanner, candlestick charts with 44 indicators, market heatmap, 800K+ economic data series, SEC filings search, insider trades, crypto order books, forex, and economic calendar into a single unified dashboard. No downloads, no setup.

Is Tapeboard a cheap professional terminal alternative?

Yes. Tapeboard gives retail traders professional-grade market tooling — real-time scanning, charts, SEC filings, and macro data — for $39/mo, versus an institutional terminal's roughly $24,000 per year. It runs in one browser tab with no contract, and there is a permanent free tier so you can start with no credit card.

Is Tapeboard's free tier really free, or does it expire?

The free tier is permanent — no credit card, nothing expires, and it never auto-converts to paid. Every new account also gets 7 days of full Pro access automatically, then settles onto the free tier: 15-minute delayed data, 10 of 45 scanner presets, and 12 of 44 chart indicators. It stays useful indefinitely.

How much does Tapeboard cost?

Tapeboard has a permanent free tier (no credit card). Pro is $39/mo (or $374/yr — about $31/mo billed annually) and unlocks real-time data, all 45 scanner presets, all 44 chart indicators, alerts, AI research, and the trade journal. Terminal is $79/mo and adds the full AI suite. Every new account gets 7 days of Pro automatically.

What kind of data does Tapeboard cover?

Tapeboard covers real-time US equities quotes and candles, 800,000+ macro economic series, SEC EDGAR filings with 10-K/10-Q/8-K search, insider transactions, cryptocurrency order books, forex rates, commodities, yield curves, and an economic calendar. All in one interface.

What tools does Tapeboard replace?

Tapeboard replaces the five or six browser tabs most market participants keep open: a stock screener, a charting tool, a fundamentals site, a macro economic data source, a filings search, and a crypto market tracker. Everything is in one tab with consistent keyboard shortcuts and streaming data.

Who is Tapeboard for?

Tapeboard is built for self-directed investors, analysts, day traders, finance students, and anyone who wants professional-grade market tooling without the five-figure terminal fee.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Tapeboard runs entirely in your web browser with zero setup. Sign up and the full terminal loads in a single tab.
