Introducing Leaderboards: Compare Your Portfolio Performance

We're excited to announce Leaderboards—a new way to see how your portfolio compares to others. Whether you want to benchmark your performance, learn from top investors, or just add a bit of friendly competition to your investing journey, leaderboards make it easy.

Why Did We Build Leaderboards?

Investing can feel isolating. You make decisions, watch the market, and hope for the best—often without knowing how your strategy compares to others. Research shows that social comparison can significantly influence investment decisions and learning. Are you doing well? Could you be doing better? What are successful investors doing differently?

Leaderboards answer these questions by letting you compare your portfolio's performance against other users. It's not about creating pressure—it's about providing context and learning opportunities that help you become a better investor.

Key Features

How It Works

Getting started with leaderboards is simple:

1. Browse leaderboards – Visit the Leaderboards page to see all available competitions.
2. Select a leaderboard – Click on any leaderboard that interests you to see full rankings and performance charts.
3. Analyze performance – Use the sorting and time range controls to explore different perspectives on performance.
4. Learn from the best – Click on top-performing portfolios to see their holdings and strategies.

Public Access

Leaderboards are publicly accessible—you don't need an account to browse rankings and see how different portfolios are performing. This makes it easy to share leaderboard links with friends or on social media, and helps potential users understand what's possible with AI-powered portfolio management.

Of course, to get your own portfolio ranked on a leaderboard, you'll need to create an account and set up your first AI-managed portfolio.

The Metrics We Track

Each portfolio in a leaderboard displays key performance metrics. If any of these numbers are unfamiliar, our explanation of what real-time analytics numbers mean covers each one in detail.

• Current Value – The total market value of all positions in the portfolio.
• Total Gain/Loss – The percentage return from the portfolio's inception, accounting for all deposits and withdrawals.
• Sharpe Ratio – A measure of risk-adjusted returns developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe. Higher Sharpe ratios indicate better returns per unit of risk taken.

Coming Soon

This is just the beginning for leaderboards. We're already working on additional features:

• The ability to create private leaderboards for your investment club or group
• More ranking metrics including max drawdown and volatility
• Notifications when your ranking changes
• Historical ranking charts to see how positions have shifted over time

We'd love to hear your feedback on what features would be most valuable to you. Reach out through the app or drop us an email.

What Is the Sharpe Ratio?

The leaderboard ranks portfolios by Sharpe ratio, so it's worth understanding what this number means. The Sharpe ratio measures how much return you earn for each unit of risk you take. A higher Sharpe ratio means better risk-adjusted performance—you're getting more reward relative to the volatility you're experiencing.

For context: a Sharpe ratio below 0.5 is considered below average, 0.5-1.0 is decent, 1.0-2.0 is strong, and above 2.0 is exceptional. Most diversified portfolios land somewhere between 0.3 and 1.0. If you see a portfolio on the leaderboard with a Sharpe above 1.5, that investor is generating impressive returns without taking outsized risks—and that's worth studying.

We chose the Sharpe ratio over raw returns deliberately. A portfolio that returns 50% by concentrating in a single volatile stock isn't necessarily "better" than one returning 15% with minimal drawdowns. The Sharpe ratio captures this distinction, rewarding consistency and discipline over lucky bets.

What You Can Learn From Top Portfolios

The leaderboard isn't just a competition—it's a learning tool. If you're new to investing, our beginner's guide to AI investing is a great companion resource. When you study the top-performing portfolios, patterns emerge. You'll notice that the best risk-adjusted performers tend to share certain characteristics: thoughtful diversification across sectors and asset classes, position sizes that avoid dangerous concentration, and a mix of growth and defensive holdings.

Pay attention to what's missing from top portfolios as much as what's in them. You rarely see the highest Sharpe ratios from portfolios loaded with meme stocks or single-sector bets. Instead, the leaders tend to balance conviction with risk management—exactly the approach that compounds wealth over time. Use these insights to refine your own strategy, not to copy trades blindly.
