ScreenerHero vs TIKR
TIKR covers 100,000 stocks
across 92 countries.
European microcaps are
still a blind spot.
TIKR has built a loyal following by making institutional-quality financial data accessible at consumer prices. The global breadth is impressive — 100,000+ stocks across 92 countries. But breadth and depth are different things. For European stocks below €500M market cap — especially on alternative markets like Euronext Growth, First North, and EGM — TIKR's fundamental data coverage is thin. ScreenerHero covers the same US and Canadian universe and adds the European microcap depth TIKR misses.
Updated May 2026 · Honest comparison, including where TIKR is genuinely better
The core difference
TIKR: global breadth, institutional data depth
TIKR is built around the idea that retail investors deserve institutional-quality financial data. Historical financials going back 20 years, earnings transcripts, segment breakdowns, and coverage of 100,000+ instruments — these are genuine strengths for investors who research deep into individual companies. The limitation is that listing a stock and having reliable fundamental data for it are different things, and European microcaps on alternative markets often have the former without the latter.
ScreenerHero: European depth with a decision-first UI
ScreenerHero trades TIKR's global breadth and deep historical data for reliable fundamental coverage of European small and microcap names that are systematically underserved by broader platforms. The UI is denser and optimised for rapid filter iteration — more Finviz than Bloomberg. The goal is to surface ideas quickly, not to research them in depth once found.
Where TIKR is genuinely better
20-year historical financials
TIKR Pro includes two decades of income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow data for most major global companies. ScreenerHero is optimised for current-period screening, not long-term financial trend analysis.
Earnings call transcripts
TIKR Pro includes searchable transcripts for 10,000+ companies — a meaningful advantage for investors who read transcripts as part of their process. ScreenerHero has no transcript feature.
Segment-level financial data
Business segment breakdowns — useful for conglomerates and diversified companies — are available in TIKR Pro. ScreenerHero does not offer segment financials.
Global frontier and emerging market coverage
TIKR covers exchanges in Asia, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa that are outside ScreenerHero's focus. If your universe includes these markets, TIKR is the broader tool.
Entry price point
TIKR Plus at $10–15/mo is significantly cheaper than ScreenerHero Pro at €29/mo. For budget-constrained investors who accept the EU microcap coverage trade-off, TIKR Plus is a real option.
Where ScreenerHero is genuinely better
European alternative market fundamentals
This is the critical difference. Euronext Growth Paris, Nasdaq First North (Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki), EGM Milan, and GPW NewConnect are listed in TIKR but fundamental data is often absent or stale for sub-€300M names. ScreenerHero covers these markets as a core product priority, not an afterthought.
UI density for screening workflows
ScreenerHero is built around the dense, rapid-iteration screener interface that Finviz popularised. TIKR's interface is clean and capable but oriented more toward individual company research than bulk screening. If filtering 5,000 stocks by criteria is your primary workflow, ScreenerHero's UX fits that better.
No account required
ScreenerHero's full screener is accessible without registration. TIKR requires account creation before accessing any feature — a meaningful barrier for evaluators.
Data gap transparency
When fundamental data is unavailable for a European microcap, ScreenerHero shows the gap explicitly. For a platform focused on small and microcap names, this transparency is important — it is better to know data is missing than to rely on stale values.
