About Prophit

Prophit is a software layer that helps beginners in the United States discover public companies and invest through Public Investing.

Swipe right to add a company to your cart. When you pick the amount you want to purchase, it is purchased in your Public Investing brokerage account and added to your Prophit, the portfolio of companies you selected and the allocation you selected for each company. Prophit Inc. builds the app. Public Investing is the registered brokerage that holds the account.

What Prophit does

Trend and company discovery

Open Search or Discover and start with a trend already in your life, such as coffee, streaming, or chips. Prophit shows publicly traded companies connected to that trend as cards you can swipe. Swipe left to pass on a company. Swipe right to add it to your cart.

A cart where you choose the amount

Each company you swipe right on lands in your cart. You pick the amount you want to purchase. That purchase is placed in your Public Investing brokerage account and added to your Prophit with the allocation you selected.

Plain-language research with Pete

Pete explains what a company does, who it serves, and how it shows up in everyday life, so you can understand it before it goes in your cart. Pete is there to explain. He does not tell you what to buy, and you should check an answer before you rely on it.

Investing through Public Investing

Prophit is the software layer. Brokerage accounts, custody, and order execution are provided by Open to the Public Investing, Inc. (“Public Investing”), a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA and SIPC. Your cash and securities stay in your Public Investing account.

Education while you explore

Short explanations sit next to the companies you are looking at, so you can learn concepts at your own pace. That material helps you understand a company. It is educational, and the decision to invest stays yours.

What makes Prophit different

Prophit Inc. is a Delaware software company. Investing in the app is done with Public Investing, our brokerage partner.

A software layer on a registered brokerage

Prophit designs the app: discovery, research, and the cart. Public Investing is the registered broker-dealer that opens the account, holds the assets, and executes the order. Membership in FINRA and SIPC belongs to Public Investing. SIPC protection, where it applies, covers the failure of the broker-dealer. It does not cover a decline in the value of an investment.

Swipe right to add a company to your cart

Swipe left to skip a company. Swipe right to add it to your cart. When you pick the amount you want to purchase, Public Investing buys it in your brokerage account and it is added to your Prophit with that allocation.

You choose every company and every amount

Prophit does not pick a portfolio for you, and it does not trade on its own. You decide which companies enter the cart and the allocation for each one. Nothing is purchased until you approve it. The purchase then lands in your Public Investing account and in your Prophit.

The app subscription is separate from the brokerage

Prophit is free to download. Prophit Premium is $9.99 per month or $79.99 per year, billed through the App Store, and you can cancel it under Subscriptions. Brokerage pricing is set by Public Investing under its own customer agreement.
