GuruFocus sells 30-year financials, guru portfolios, and insider filings. Those screens run on filings we hold. The quote is display. Where the footer names FactSet and Refinitiv, those feeds stay a license.
The row stays now. Long-history financials, 13F screens, and Form 4 tracking are live. A quote on the page is display. Where the pricing footer names FactSet for fundamentals and Refinitiv for estimates, those feeds stay a license. The reviews FAQ says the financials come from SEC filings and international regulators, and that line is left beside the footer. The live pricing page did not render. Premium on the reviews FAQ is 549 dollars a year. Premium Plus is 1,398. Pro is 2,448.

| What an investor opens | GuruFocus is a value-investing site since 2004: 30-year financials, a screener, a discounted-cash-flow value and GF Value, guru and insider portfolios, filings, an Excel add-in, a data API, and a mobile app. The about page names Charlie Tian and GuruFocus.com, and also GuruFocus Investments, LLC, an SEC-registered adviser. The reviews FAQ says it is not a Bloomberg or FactSet substitute. | Long-history financials, 13F screens, and Form 4 tracking are the product we already run. A discounted cash flow on that history is a model. | Ahead |
| The price | The live pricing page returned a loading message and did not render the cards. The reviews FAQ did load: Premium 549 dollars a year for the US market, Premium Plus 1,398 dollars a year adding Asian and European market data, Pro 2,448 dollars a year for all features and markets. Annual only. A 7-day trial. A limited free tier is described, with no price. | The US filing seat is the book under Premium. Their annual card is their packaging. | Match |

| How many stocks | The about page says 100,000 stocks covered in 100 markets, 8,000-plus institutional investors, 15,000-plus mutual fund holdings, and 1 million users worldwide. The reviews hero and FAQ say 80,000-plus stocks covered globally and 1.5 million-plus active investors, and still 8,000-plus gurus. | US 13F is 196,788 amendment-resolved filings and 11,646 managers. N-PORT is 84.4 million raw holding rows. Their stock counts and user counts are left as printed. | Ahead |
| Where the financials come from | The footer on the pricing page that did load says stock quotes are provided by QuoteMedia, Inc. (CSI), company fundamental data is provided by FactSet, and analyst estimates are sourced from both Refinitiv and FactSet, with priority given to Refinitiv, updated daily. The reviews FAQ says financial data is sourced directly from SEC filings and international regulatory sources. | As-reported face statements are about 473,000 filing-rows from the filing. A FactSet fundamental, where the footer is the source, is their license. The two source lines are left as printed. The score stays now because the screen a value investor runs, 13F, Form 4, and the filed financial, is the public book. | Match |
| Insiders and gurus | Guru portfolios and insider portfolios are a named section of the site. The reviews page keeps 8,000-plus gurus on both counts. | Form 4 and Form 5 are 11.28 million classified transactions, 19,910 issuers, 209,003 people, insider note of 2026-09-19. A 13F manager track record is the same panel. | Ahead |

| The quote | The pricing footer names QuoteMedia for the quote. | A quote on the page is display. It is not the dataset the row is scored on. | Beside |
| Estimates | The same footer names Refinitiv first and FactSet second for analyst estimates. The reviews FAQ does not name an estimates vendor. | An estimate we train is our number. A Refinitiv or FactSet consensus, where the footer names it, stays a license. | Beside |
Ahead The feature is data we already hold, in a form an investor can use.
Match Both products do this.
Partial We hold the filing or the extract, and not their finished screen.
Gap They ship it. We do not.
Beside A QuoteMedia quote, a FactSet fundamental where the footer is the source, and a Refinitiv or FactSet estimate stay a license. The filed financial, the 13F, and the Form 4 are the book.
