With over 40,000 stocks on the platform, Tykr stands out with its educational approach, guiding its users through the investment process with Duolingo-inspired learning modules available on both iOS and Android apps.At the core of Tykr lies a commitment to education. But what does this educational framework look like? It originated from an Excel sheet Sean crafted over a span of four years, drawing inspiration from Warren Buffett's investment strategies. This sheet, which was instrumental in helping him realize returns ranging from 15 to 50%, was the precursor to Tykr's scoring system. Stocks are evaluated on a scale from 0 to 100, with criteria such as revenue growth, profits, free cash flow, and debt levels. Moreover, their calculations are open source, fostering a culture of transparency and trust within their community.Learn more about Sean's work HERE and HERE.
