QMA vs. a typical fundamentals platform — feature comparison
Fundamentals platforms are built around a readable, often visual overview of a company’s health and valuation — great for a first look at a stock. QMA rates fundamentals too (the Value pillar), and adds four more pillars: momentum, Smart Money, sentiment and catalysts.
The comparison describes a typical tool of this category, not a specific product. Individual products differ and features change.
| Capability | QMA | Typical tool Fundamentals platform |
|---|---|---|
| One-screen visual company overview | partly / varies by product | yes |
| Fundamental metrics and ratios | yes | yes |
| Fused 5-pillar score (A++ to F) | yes | partly / varies by product |
| Insider trades and trades by members of Congress | yes | partly / varies by product |
| Reported fund positions (13F, delayed up to 45 days) | yes | partly / varies by product |
| Options IV / unusual activity | yes | partly / varies by product |
| Strategy backtests showing t-stat and trade count (n) | yes | partly / varies by product |
| XTB trade import + Czech tax estimate | yes | partly / varies by product |
| Czech-language interface | yes | partly / varies by product |
When QMA makes sense
QMA makes sense if a fundamental snapshot is not enough and you also want momentum, sentiment and data layers on insiders and funds.
- Five pillars in one score, not only a fundamental snapshot
- Data layers on insiders, Congress, funds and options
- Strategy backtests showing t-stat and n
- XTB import with a Czech tax estimate
When this type of tool makes sense

- Clean onboarding for complete newcomers
- Often broad coverage of markets outside the US
