Assetly — a daily brief that helps you invest smarter

Minjae Lee — Thu, 08 Oct 2026 12:53:40 +0000

Hi, I'm Minjae Lee, an indie founder in Austin, Texas. I hold a mix of US stocks, ETFs, and crypto, and every morning I burned too much time opening two or three brokerage apps just to learn nothing about why my money moved — let alone what to do next.

So I built Assetly, a free asset-management app. It pulls all my holdings onto one screen, then writes me a short portfolio brief three times a day: pre-market, midday, and after close. The brief breaks down what drove my returns, flags what's coming, and helps me think through my next move. I mostly listen to mine on the way in. You can also ask about your holdings in plain English, like "what moved my returns this week?"

It connects to US brokerages via SnapTrade. Free. iPhone app, plus a web app you can install to the home screen on Android.

I'd love blunt feedback: does the brief actually help you make smarter decisions? What's missing before you'd trust it with your morning routine?

I hold stocks and crypto across a couple of brokerages, and every morning I burned too much time opening two or three apps just to learn nothing about why my money moved. So I built Assetly — an asset management app that pulls my US stocks, ETFs, and crypto onto one screen, then writes me a short brief three times a day: pre-market (8am ET), midday (11am), and after close (4pm).

Each brief covers what moved my money, what's coming up, and what I might want to consider next. I usually listen to mine on the way in, but you can read them too. And you can just ask about your own holdings in plain English, like "what moved my returns this week?"

The idea is simple: a tool that helps you invest more wisely and actually grow your wealth, instead of another dashboard full of numbers you never look at. It connects to US brokerages via SnapTrade. Free. There's an iPhone app, plus a web app Android users can install to the home screen and use like a native app.

What I'd love from you: tear it apart. Does a 3x-a-day brief actually help you make smarter decisions, or is it just noise? Is the brief the right length, the right tone, the right three times? What would make you open it every morning? I read everything.
