Hi Product Hunt 👋,

I’m Anthony, the founder of Candlestick. For as long as anyone’s been alive, top-flight financial advisors and financial planners have only been available to the lucky few who have high net worths and/or lots of money to spend on their fees. The vast majority of people are at a disadvantage when managing their wealth.

In the emerging world of AI agents, that will no longer be the case. My co-founder and I started Candlestick to lead the charge and level the playing field. Unlike other investment apps like Acorns or Wealthfront, Candlestick AI actually considers your financial situation on a deeply personal, individual basis. There are no cookie-cutter portfolios or passive ETF strategies here.

🔮 HOW IT WORKS:

Candlestick automates every part of the investing process. All you have to dois create an account and deposit funds. The rest is handled by your AI advisor: placing buy and sell orders, deciding how to construct your portfolio, and actively monitoring it.

If you want, you can “set it and forget it” — just sit back and have your money go to work. But that doesn’t mean Candlestick is an opaque, black-box process. In fact, we’ve gone in the opposite direction entirely. Here’s what you can expect from our easy-to-use app:

🤖 Automatic Investing:

  • Get started in 10 minutes or less

  • Enter your investing preferences and get a tailored AI portfolio

  • Fund your account with absolutely no minimums whatsoever

💸 The AI Advantage:

  • Our AI researches thousands of stocks to identify overlooked investing opportunities

  • The model integrates financial data, market news, and technical information

  • With each decision, your AI advisor gives you a specially-generated investment report so you can learn the reasons why the stock was chosen

  • So you can sit back and relax and see your money go to work with regular updates on your timeline OR

  • Go deeper and understand more

💬 Chat with your AI:

  • Advisor is a built-in chatbot that is a one-stop shop for all your investing questions

  • Try questions about specific companies, news stories, or financial concepts

  • The system is connected to live, up-to-date market data

  • Advisor has the context of your portfolio, so it can be directly helpful to you

  • Advisor is completely free with your Candlestick account.

Thank you so much for supporting our launch and I hope you'll give Candlestick a try.

This is looking good i want try it. Can this ai help me with my business?. IM so currious how to get more money. IM feeling stuck can this ai help me to improve my business to get more money?.

What’s the transparency like for the model? Is there backtesting performed/visible to the user?

Candlestick flips the script on passive investing, AI that not only grows your portfolio but narrates the ‘why’ behind every move? That’s the kind of transparency that builds trust, especially for clients who crave clarity over complexity. Would love to see how it tailors strategies for different financial goals.

Congrats on the launch @adimaggio. I'm not an expert in investing, so this tool could be a great assistant. I’m excited to see what other investment types it could support in the future.

@adimaggio This looks amazing! Looking forward to trying it out. All the best.

  • just got in and want to understand it more. But for starters, I think its cool.

We've heard that "timing the market" never works and that it's often more beneficial to simply invest into an ETF instead. How does Candlestick have a leg-up over current financial products like ETFs?

Really thoughtful work here — love how Candlestick makes investing feel more human and understandable. The narrative-driven approach is such a welcome shift from spreadsheets and jargon. We’re building X-Design (a visual tool for small businesses), and it’s always inspiring to see other makers bring clarity to complex spaces. Big congrats on the launch!

@adimaggio Congratulations. And happy product launch.

Congrats on the launch! Excited to manage wealth smarter and grow returns!

Whoa, finally an AI that actually explains my investments in plain English! No more staring blankly at spreadsheets—love this narrative approach. Can it break down crypto moves too?
