Oak Growth vs Koyfin

Koyfin is a superb professional terminal at $39 a month for charting and macro data. It doesn't tell you what a company is worth — that isn't what it's for. Oak Growth does, across eight markets, for less than half the price.

The short version

Koyfin is often described as a Bloomberg alternative, and that's a fair characterisation of both its strengths and its price. It's a professional-grade data and charting platform at $39 a month for the Plus plan, or $79 for Pro. It doesn't tell you what a company is worth — that's not what it's for.

The three differences that matter

1. More than twice the price, at the entry tier

$39 a month is $468 a year against £216 for Oak Growth — and Koyfin's Pro tier at $79 a month is $948 a year. That's professional-tool pricing, which is consistent with who it's built for.

2. It's a terminal, not a verdict

Koyfin gives you outstanding dashboards, charting and macro data drawn from a professional data feed. What it doesn't give you is a number for what a business is worth, or a view on whether management has allocated capital well. You bring the method; it supplies the data beautifully.

3. Built for advisers

Koyfin's own positioning is towards financial advisers, asset managers and professionals. Oak Growth is built for a private investor who wants a considered answer on a thousand companies rather than a customisable terminal.

Where Koyfin is stronger

Charting, dashboards and breadth of data — equities, ETFs, mutual funds, macro, currencies and fixed income in one place, powered by an institutional data provider. If you want to build custom dashboards and analyse markets top-down, nothing at this price does it better, and its free tier is usable.

On free access. Several tools show a fair value on a handful of companies without paying — a few reports a week, or a limited view. What none of them give away is unlimited access to intrinsic values across a whole market. That is what a subscription buys, wherever you buy it.

Who each one suits

Koyfin if you want a professional-grade terminal for charting and macro analysis and you supply your own valuation method.

Oak Growth if you want the valuation itself — an intrinsic value on every company, the four pillars scored, entry signals and eight markets, at less than half the price.

The verdict, not just the data

Oak Growth publishes a discounted cash flow intrinsic value for roughly 1,000 companies across eight markets, with moat, management, economics and value scored on every one.

Common questions

How much does Koyfin cost?

Koyfin has a free tier, then charges $39 a month for its Plus plan and $79 a month for Pro — around $468 and $948 a year respectively. Oak Growth is £18 a month, about £216 a year, with all features included.

Does Koyfin give a fair value for stocks?

No. Koyfin provides data, charting, screening and macro analysis drawn from a professional data feed, but does not publish an intrinsic value or fair value estimate per company. Oak Growth computes and publishes a discounted cash flow value for every company it covers.

Is Koyfin worth it for private investors?

It is built primarily for financial advisers, asset managers and professionals, and its pricing reflects that. Private investors who mainly want to know what a company is worth may find a valuation-led tool a better fit than a data terminal.

What is a cheaper alternative to Koyfin?

Oak Growth is £18 a month against Koyfin's $39, and publishes an intrinsic value, margin of safety and Buffett four-pillar score for roughly 1,000 companies across eight markets. Koyfin remains stronger on charting, macro data and asset class breadth.
