Collections / Chart and screen stocks

Scanz alternatives

Same software job: chart and screen stocks — real-time US equity scanners, news / filings, Level 2, charts, then a Free delayed / Starter / Pro / Ultra seat. This is a directory job-fit guide — Keep / Gain / Lose — not a ranking, not a “#1,” not paid placement, and not financial advice. A scan is not a buy list. Prices below only repeat what our live reviews already captured.

Keep Scanz when…

Keep Scanz when the job is a scanner-first real-time US equity desk with Free at $0 delayed (FAQ), Starter at $89/mo, Pro at $199/mo, or Ultra at $999/mo — plus news / SEC Filing scanners, Level 2, and charts on the same product story. Live review; empty affiliate by design (CTA goes to the official site). Broker execution inside Scanz stays coming soon on public pages.

Skip Scanz if you need TSX / international scanning, options or crypto scanners, a Supercharts / Pine seat, a Worden EasyScan® desk, or documented TSX coverage like ChartMill.

Alternatives (live reviews only)

Each block is one neighboring listing for the chart / screen job — or a clearly labeled near-neighbor. Trade Ideas is paid scanner-first; TC2000 is EasyScan® / options-first; ChartMill is TA+FA delayed screener-first; Finviz is heatmap / Elite-first; TradingView is Supercharts-first; TrendSpider is automation-first. Order matches common search neighbors, not a score.

Trade IdeasPaid real-time equity scanner — scanner-first, higher Standard floor

  • Gain: Paid real-time stock scanning / charting seat with TI Standard / Premium dollars on an official pricing toggle — TI Wave and Premium AI-automation labels when that packaging is the job.
  • Lose or watch out: Higher published Standard floor than Scanz Starter. Less of Scanz’s Free delayed $0 on-ramp and explicit news / SEC Filing scanner cards. Canadian-listed coverage unverified. Not a broker.
  • Verified price cue: TI Standard $127/mo or $1,068/yr; TI Premium $254/mo or $2,136/yr (2026-09-15). (Standard $127/mo · Premium $254/mo · $1068/yr · $2136/yr)

TC2000Worden charting / EasyScan® desk — options surfaces + optional US brokerage

  • Gain: Worden charts, EasyScan® / PCFs, watchlists, alerts, and options charting on Basic / Premium / Premium+ with annual and biennial effective-monthly discounts, plus a free paper simulator.
  • Lose or watch out: Center of gravity is EasyScan® / options charting, not Scanz’s news / filings scanner desk. Optional TC2000 Brokerage is US-residents-only. No free forever full scanner seat on pricing cards.
  • Verified price cue: Basic $24.99/mo; Premium $49.99/mo; Premium+ $99.99/mo (annual effective $20.82 / $41.65 / $83.32) (2026-09-23). (Basic $24.99/mo · Premium $49.99/mo · Premium+ $99.99/mo)

ChartMillBrowser TA+FA screener / reports — free on-ramp, delayed data, TSX docs

  • Gain: Technical + fundamental screener with charts, FA/TA reports, Trade Ideas, and documented Nasdaq/NYSE/Amex, TSX/TSX-V, and Europe market-data tables — free account on-ramp, then Monthly / Annual seats.
  • Lose or watch out: Subscription FAQ: data stays 15 minutes delayed even when paid. Not a real-time day-trading scanner desk like Scanz Pro. Named Canadian-broker integrations unverified.
  • Verified price cue: Free on-ramp; Monthly $13.97 first month → $34.97/mo; Annual + Course $299.97/yr (2026-09-22). (Free on-ramp · $13.97 intro · $34.97/mo · $299.97/yr)

FinvizClosest free heatmap / screener neighbor — Elite real-time ladder

  • Gain: Free delayed screener / heatmaps / quote pages, then Finviz Elite for real-time stock quotes, advanced filters, push alerts, and export/API after a card-required 7-day Elite trial.
  • Lose or watch out: Less of Scanz’s desktop multi-monitor scanner + news/filings packaging. FAQ: no plans to expand into new markets. Not a broker.
  • Verified price cue: Free $0 (1-min delay); Elite $39.50/mo or $299.50/yr ($24.96/mo billed annually). (Free · $39.50/mo · $299.50/yr)

TradingViewSupercharts / screening SaaS — charting-first, free Basic on-ramp

  • Gain: Multi-asset Supercharts, screeners, alerts, and Pine Script with a free Basic seat, then paid Essential / Plus / Premium / Ultimate when the job is browser charting depth more than a scanner-first desk.
  • Lose or watch out: Center of gravity is Supercharts, not Scanz’s real-time US scanner + news/filings packaging. Charting SaaS ≠ brokerage. Exchange real-time data often extra.
  • Verified price cue: Basic Free $0; Essential $12.95/mo; Plus $29.95/mo; Premium $59.95/mo; Ultimate $199.95/mo (annual specials on capture). (Free · $12.95/mo · $29.95/mo · $59.95/mo · $199.95/mo)

TrendSpiderAutomation-first charting / scanning — paid trial on-ramp

  • Gain: Paid charting software built around automated analysis, scanners, Strategy Tester, alerts, and bots — start on a 14-day paid trial into Standard / Premium / Enhanced / Advanced.
  • Lose or watch out: No ongoing free forever full-platform seat on cards we list. Standing plan dollars are confirm-on-site. Less of Scanz’s news/filings scanner story. Canadian listings unverified.
  • Verified price cue: 14-day paid trial into Standard / Premium / Enhanced / Advanced (trial fees $19 / $29 / $39 / $49 as on the charting compare) — confirm standing dollars on TrendSpider. (14-day trial · Standard · Premium · Enhanced · Advanced)

Canada note

Scanz software can be attempted from Canada for US markets. Official FAQ: Scanz does not scan TSX / international symbols. ChartMill documents TSX / TSX-V on its market-data page. TradingView names Canada markets / TSX-family widgets. TC2000 Brokerage is US-residents-only; Canadian-listed / CAD marketing tables stay unverified on that review. Trade Ideas, Finviz, and TrendSpider leave Canadian-listed coverage unverified on our reviews. Confirm coverage and prices on each official site before you pay.

FAQ

Is this a ranked list of Scanz alternatives?

No. There is no “#1,” no star rating, and no paid placement order. Keep / Gain / Lose is a job-fit map against our live reviews.

Why include TradingView and TrendSpider?

People comparing Scanz often weigh a scanner-first desk against Supercharts depth or automation-first charting. Those rows are labeled so you do not treat them as Scanz clones.

Is this financial advice?

No. This site is a directory of software. Scanners, alerts, and news headlines are research inputs, not a signal to trade.
