  1. 01Pick the base

    Start from one of six broad indexes: U.S. large cap, all cap, mid cap, small cap, global, or international.

  2. 02Screen sectors

    Already have enough technology? Trim the sector so the index does not double your bet.

  3. 03Screen values

    Optional. Leave out what you would rather not own: weapons, gambling, environmental harm, labor and human rights concerns.

  4. 04Take out your stock

    Your stock comes out. So does anything else you are overexposed to.

  5. 05Check it against the target

    See how far the result drifts from the market before anything is bought.

Why personalize.

What you own.

Individual stocks, in your account. You can see every one, every day.

Questions.

Yes. A few hundred individual companies, held directly.

They arrive as cash and go back into the index at the next rebalance.

We replace a sold stock with a different company and do not buy the original back for 31 days. The loss holds.

Closely, not exactly. We show you the number before you start.

Yes. Add a screen, remove one, or exclude another company. The index rebalances around the change.

Own too much of one stock?

Diversify is the plan that gets you out.

Most people with one big position want the same thing. Get out slowly, and do not pay the whole tax bill in one year. I could not find that without a lock-up, so I built it.
