Quiver Quantitative
Stock Screener — Freemium
An alternative-data scanner tracking congressional trades, insider activity, and retail sentiment to surface unusual signals.
Congressional trade tracker
Overview
Quiver Quantitative is a stock screener built on alternative data instead of price and volume alone, scanning congressional trades, insider activity, and retail sentiment for signals other tools miss. It is aimed at traders who want an information edge from data sources most screeners ignore entirely, and who are comfortable folding an extra layer of research into an existing process. This Quiver Quantitative review looks at what that alt-data angle adds and where it runs thin.
The congressional trade tracker is the headline draw, letting traders follow what policymakers are buying and selling instead of relying on delayed disclosures buried in filings. Beyond that, Quiver Quantitative surfaces unique alt-data signals, from insider activity to retail sentiment, that give a different read on a stock than a standard technical or fundamental screen. Plans are affordable relative to the niche the platform occupies, keeping the alt-data edge within reach of regular retail traders rather than only funds.
The honest limit is what these signals actually tell you. They are directional only, pointing toward interest or activity without confirming timing, size of conviction, or a clear entry and exit. The platform's niche data focus also means it works best as a complement to other research rather than a full replacement for fundamental or technical analysis.
Coverage is US stocks, with the platform geared toward day trading more than long, slow-moving positions. Everything here runs manual: Quiver Quantitative surfaces the data, but a trader still decides what to do with it rather than any bot acting on it automatically. API access is available for traders who want to pull the data into their own systems, and a mobile app keeps signals visible off the desktop. Pricing runs Free / $10/mo, with a free trial to sample the paid tier before committing. Skip Quiver Quantitative if you want a primary research tool rather than a supplementary signal source; it fits intermediate traders who already have a core process and want alt-data layered on top of it.
