Built for traders, by traders.
Scanz has deep roots in the stock trading space. Really deep.
We know how to find an edge for experienced traders better than most.
For 20 years, Scanz has delivered sophisticated tools to put the power of technology into the hands of traders to take their strategies to the next level.
Right from our early days in penny stocks as EquityFeed, we discovered that taking a scanner-first approach to finding trades meant our users were able to find more of exactly what their trading strategy required. Many seasoned traders already have an edge. We take that edge to the next level in a fast and reliable way. Scanning takes the time, energy and manual process out of locating potential trades. This means you spend less time manually searching and more time executing. Our personal time as traders should be dedicated to assessing the opportunity and risk right before taking a trade. It should not be consumed by searching the market for potential in the first place. Let technology do what it does best. Let it bring the right trades to you, based on your current strategy, so you can execute.
With this approach, Scanz has continued to develop our world class scanning and trading platform. It’s built specifically for active, consistent traders. It’s built for those who are truly dedicated to their craft and strategy – for those dedicated to remaining consistent and profitable.
That’s the true goal for career traders. Consistency, reliability, speed, scale. Scanz enables this.

How does Scanz fit into my existing trading strategy?
Scanz is not a strategy—it’s a tool that enhances yours. You bring the strategy, and we provide the real-time scanning, precision alerts, and automation to help you execute it faster, more consistently, and with greater control. Whether you trade momentum, breakouts, reversals, or news-driven plays, Scanz helps you find more of the trades you already look for—before the market moves.
I already know how to find trades. Why do I need Scanz?
Great traders don’t just need ideas—they need more of the right ones, at the right time, with more reliability. Scanz lets you automate and maximize what already works for you, so instead of spending hours manually scanning for setups, you can focus on execution and maximizing your results. Top traders trust Scanz as a core part of their workflow because it makes them more efficient and more profitable—without changing their strategy.
How customizable is Scanz? Will it adapt to my style?
Scanz is built for traders who need full control over their process. From technical and fundamental filtering to block trade signals and real-time news alerts, you can fine-tune everything to match your exact trading criteria. Whether you want to build custom scans from scratch or modify proven setups, Scanz gives you total flexibility so it fits seamlessly into your workflow.
How fast are the alerts, and do they really make a difference?
Speed matters. Some Scanz traders report getting into stocks an average of 28 seconds after news hits—before the actual move starts. Our real-time alerts and institutional block trade signals help you spot momentum before the masses, giving you a crucial edge in execution speed. If your strategy depends on timing and precision, Scanz ensures you’re never reacting too late.
How reliable is Scanz? Can I trust it as my main scanner?
Serious traders need tools they can depend on every day—and Scanz delivers. Our platform has almost no issues or outages meaning you’ll never miss a setup due to downtime or lag. Our technology is built for reliability, speed, and performance, ensuring you stay connected to the market without interruptions.
Will I have to rebuild my workflow from scratch?
No. Scanz is built to integrate with your trading process—not replace it. Scanz provides the scanning power and alerts to help you execute your strategy more efficiently. You can start with pre-built scans or fully customize your own, ensuring the platform adapts to you, not the other way around.
How do I know if Scanz is right for me?
Scanz is for active, experienced traders who want to take their trading and strategy to the next level. If you:
– Already have a strategy and know what setups you trade
– Want to automate your scanning process and react faster
– Need high-speed, fully customizable tools to execute more efficiently
– Want a scanner that becomes a core part of your trading day infrastructure
Then Scanz is built for you. And with a 14-day free trial, you can experience its full potential risk-free.
Why should you take a scanner-first approach?
Time, energy and filtering efficiency comes from scanner-first technology. Once you have developed a trading strategy, Scanz can help you find more of the kinds of trades that you actually want. If you can get these filtered trade opportunities to come directly to you, it means you can spend your personal time assessing true opportunity and measuring risk. It means you spend less time searching and more time executing – which is where the (consistent) profit is. Career traders swear by Scanz for exactly this reason.
Does scanning replace charting?
No. Scanning is a core, initial stage to finding trades. You can still use charting to assess your opportunity and risk once you locate potential tickers to trade. Scanz provides technical analysis charts directly within our platform. Some traders prefer to use the scanner only, but most use both, which is why we provide both.
Do I need to live in the US to use Scanz to improve my trading?
We have users across the whole world. What you need is to be able to trade US stocks. As long as you trade US stocks, it does not matter where you live. Over 100K traders globally have used Scanz to take their trading to the next level – and you can too.
How can I get more education and support?
We provide detailed videos and tutorials directly on our website and on YouTube. There are also a bunch of traders on YouTube and other social networks such as X that have produced their own content based on the Scanz platform and system. We also offer both technical and personal support through our help centre and customer success team. You know your trading strategy, we can take it to the next level.
How do I build scans based on my trading style?
Scanz enables you to either use one of our many pre-built scan templates or completely build your own from the ground up. Start with understanding what kind of trades you want to discover and what kind of strategy you want to run. Next, build your scan with filters that bring those trades to you. Apply price, volume, news, technical or other filters to find what you need. Be as detailed as you want to be. Then, sit back and let the tech bring trades to you. It’s that simple. Take it to the next level by saving the scans and running them everyday as part of your trading routine.
