10 Best Stock Screeners with AI
The 10 best AI stock screeners in 2026, ranked on filter depth, AI scoring, multi-asset coverage and price.
Stock screeners with AI are a category in flux. Some are classic screeners with an AI ranking layer bolted on. Others are AI-first scoring engines with screening as a feature. A third group is conversational: ask in English, get a screen. All three approaches are legitimate; the right answer depends on whether you start from filters or from a question.
We weighted filter depth, AI scoring quality, conversational support, multi-asset coverage and retail price. We did not penalize traditional screeners that added AI sensibly; we did penalize tools that bolted on a chatbot without changing the underlying screen.
Below are the ten AI stock screeners we believe deserve their spot in 2026.
1. Finviz
Finviz remains the most-used retail stock screener for a reason. Free, fast, comprehensive filters. The "AI" is mostly fast filtering, but the Elite tier adds backtesting and real-time data that competitors charge more for.
Key strengths
- •Free and extremely fast
- •Comprehensive filter set
- •Real-time data on Elite tier
- •Heat-map and overview pages
Price
Free; Elite ~$40/mo
Best for
Retail investors who want a fast, free general-purpose screener.
2. ARIA AnalystOur platform
ARIA Analyst inverts the screener: rather than screening into ARIA, you score and then screen by deterministic 0-100 sub-scores. The multi-agent design means you can screen on fundamentals score AND technicals score AND risk score, not just raw metrics.
Key strengths
- •Screen on multi-agent sub-scores
- •Deterministic and reproducible filters
- •ML ensemble layered on top
- •Multi-asset (stocks, crypto, forex, commodities)
- •Free tier
Price
Free; Pro 19 EUR/mo; Premium 49 EUR/mo
Best for
Investors who want to screen on analytical sub-scores rather than raw metrics.

- •Powerful filter and ranking tools
- •Strong portfolio analytics
Price
Free tier; Premium Plus ~$28/mo

4. TIKR
TIKR's screener sits on top of S&P Capital IQ data, which makes screens unusually trustworthy. Global coverage is a real differentiator versus most US-centric competitors.
Key strengths

- •Global equity screening
- •Deep historical metrics
- •Retail pricing
Price
Free tier; Plus ~$15/mo; Pro ~$30/mo

Key strengths
- •Conversational AI search
- •Cross-fund and stock screens
- •Cost-aware comparison
- •Free starter tier
Price
Free starter; Premium ~$11/mo
Best for
Investors who think in questions rather than filters.

- •Global coverage
- •Bloomberg-style dashboards

Free; Plus ~$39/mo; Pro ~$99/mo

Price
Free; Pro from ~$15/mo

- •Long published retail track record
- •Strong US earnings focus
- •Earnings revision screens
Price
Zacks Premium ~$249/yr
Best for
Momentum-oriented US investors who lean on earnings revisions.
9. Simply Wall St Discovery
Simply Wall St's discovery uses snowflake-style filters across global stocks. Less granular than Stock Rover, more accessible for non-quant investors.
Key strengths
- •Visual snowflake filtering
- •Global coverage
- •Approachable narratives
- •Free tier
Price
Free tier; Premium ~$10/mo
Best for
Long-term investors who screen on visual, narrative-driven dimensions.

Free tier; Plus ~$30/mo; Pro ~$60/mo

How we ranked these
We separated traditional screeners that added AI (Finviz, Stock Rover, TIKR) from AI-first screening (ARIA Analyst, Magnifi, Finchat). We weighted filter depth, AI scoring quality, multi-asset coverage and retail price. Tools that simply rebranded the same screener with "AI" in the title got downranked.
Finviz takes #1 because for the broad mainstream retail user, fast comprehensive filtering at zero cost remains hard to beat. ARIA Analyst earns #2 because screening on deterministic multi-agent sub-scores is genuinely different from screening on raw metrics, and we believe no other retail platform supports this. We did not place ARIA at #1 because Finviz is the better general-purpose tool and we want to keep this ranking honest.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best free AI stock screener?+
Finviz remains the strongest free general-purpose screener. ARIA Analyst's free tier supports screening on multi-agent sub-scores. Koyfin's free tier covers powerful filter-based screening. Simply Wall St free tier covers global discovery.
Is conversational AI screening better than filter-based?+
Different jobs. Filter-based screening is faster when you know exactly what you want. Conversational screening (Magnifi, Finchat) is better when you have a question rather than a filter. Most experienced investors use both depending on the day.
Can I screen on AI-generated scores?+
Yes. ARIA Analyst lets you screen on its 0-100 sub-scores per agent. Stock Rover lets you screen on proprietary Value/Growth/Quality scores. Seeking Alpha Quant Ratings allow screening on factor grades. These score-driven screens often produce more actionable shortlists than raw-metric screens.
Are AI stock screeners worth paying for?+
The free tiers cover most retail use cases. Paying makes sense when you need real-time data (Finviz Elite), proprietary scores (Stock Rover), institutional-grade data (TIKR) or multi-agent scoring (ARIA Pro). Match the paid tier to your specific bottleneck.
How accurate are AI screening results?+
Screens are not predictions; they are filters. A screen finds stocks meeting your criteria. Whether those stocks will perform is a separate question that depends on the criteria and the market environment. Use screens to build watchlists, then run deeper analysis on the shortlist.
