PRESENTED BY PINCHSTREET

Swipe to Discover Stocks and ETFs

Most investing apps begin with a blank search bar and assume you already know what to look for. PinchStreet is building a different starting point: a swipe-based discovery experience for adults who want to explore stocks and ETFs, see plain-English explanations, and decide for themselves what deserves a closer look.

Instead of presenting performance promises or personalized recommendations, PinchStreet is designed to make the discovery step easier to navigate. An optional parent-governed family mode is also planned for households that want to learn together: younger users can propose, while adults remain responsible for reviewing and deciding.

PinchStreet is pre-launch; brokerage services are planned through a regulated U.S. brokerage partner, with full details disclosed before launch.

Growth Up. Profit Down. ๐Ÿ“Š
