The challenge

The challenge was not building a dashboard. It was deciding how little to build.

Stock research is slow, fragmented, and easy to drown in. The MVP had to compress financial data, scoring, valuation, and reporting into one workflow without becoming a Bloomberg-sized platform before demand was proven.

Clarity before code

The decision: prove the research workflow first

The MVP question

Can an investor look at a small or mid-cap stock and quickly understand whether it is attractive — backed by structured financial analysis, not a hunch?

  1. Analyze the stock
  2. Score the company
  3. Estimate value
  4. Generate report

Build vs. Cut

Focus, not limitation

What we built

Four product modules

Scoring engine

Six categories: valuation, profitability, growth, financial health, efficiency, and management quality — rolled into one explainable score.

DCF valuation module

Forecasted cash flows, discount rate, terminal value, and comparison against market price.

PDF research reports

Company overview, key metrics, score, DCF, and investment case in one shareable document.

Streamlit + backend integration

Streamlit dashboard embedded into the branded website with backend APIs, database integration, authentication, and custom JavaScript wiring.

What the output looks like

A ticker becomes a structured investment case

Example stock
Alpha Metallurgical Resources (NYSE: AMR)
Overall score
80 / 100 — “Strong”
DCF value
$315.04 per share
Market price
$197.04
Model read
Roughly 37% undervalued
P/E

The platform is built for research and education, not personalized financial advice. Its output is a starting point for analysis, not a recommendation.

Built to scale, not just to demo

A backend-first foundation

  • Backend APIs
  • Secure authentication
  • User database
  • Report generation
  • Streamlit integration
  • Custom JavaScript
  • Planned caching
  • Performance optimization
  • Report history
  • Website embedding

Results

What the MVP delivered

  • A six-category scoring engine producing an explainable score out of 100.
  • A DCF module estimating intrinsic value per share against market price.
  • Automated, downloadable PDF research reports.
  • A Streamlit analysis dashboard embedded cleanly into the website.
  • A secure, backend-first foundation built for future scale.
  • A working sample report proving the end-to-end workflow.
  • Full MVP scoped and delivered in three weeks.

Impact

A research process that used to mean hours of manual ratio-hunting now produces a structured investment case in one pass.

For the client, that turns a complex idea into something they can put in users’ hands — to test demand, generate research, and grow toward a subscription platform, portfolio scoring, and deeper AI commentary.
