Hedger vs Brycht
Czech financial terminal vs portfolio tracker. Two different tools that could complement each other well.
Written with AI assistance
Brycht.app is a new Czech financial terminal built by a respected figure in the local finance community. Positions itself primarily as a market-data tool — screeners, news, market overview — with portfolio tracking as a secondary feature. The founder invested in a paid market-data feed, which gives Brycht real infrastructure behind its terminal features.
Hedger is a portfolio tracker first, built for investors who want to verify every number back to the source. Genuinely different tools — use Brycht for market screening and research, Hedger for tracking your actual positions.
What Brycht does well
- Terminal-first approach. Built as a financial terminal — market data, screeners, news in one place. Different category from portfolio trackers, closer to what Bloomberg/Refinitiv offer at the professional tier.
- Paid market-data feed. The founder invested in a professional data service. Real infrastructure investment that could provide data-quality advantages over free APIs.
- Strong founder distribution. Founder is well-respected in the Czech finance community — built-in audience that's hard to replicate.
- Ambitious scope for a new project. Given how recently the project started, the breadth (terminal + screener + tracker) is impressive. Worth watching.
What Hedger focuses on differently
- Broker-level accuracy, not approximate totals. Every trade, dividend, fee parsed from broker CSVs. Goal: match broker reports as closely as possible. Row-by-row check against Taxomat documented in Hedger vs Taxomat.
- Audit trail. Every number traces to the broker CSV row. Hedger shows how it got to every figure.
- Period attribution. For any position and period, returns split into Price / FX / Income / Fees / Deposits / Taxes. Tells you not just what happened but why.
- Options. Full IBKR option chain — every premium trade, expiry, assignment.
- Czech tax report. FIFO, 3-year time test, CNB FX, WHT tracking, mojedane.cz XML — built into the same tool as your daily tracking.
- 5 tested broker parsers. IBKR (Activity + Flex), Degiro, T212, Fio, XTB. Each tested against real broker data and refined when gaps surface on the founder's portfolio.
In short
Pick Brycht if you want a Czech-language financial terminal with market data, stock screeners and financial news — Bloomberg-lite in Czech. Founder's investment in paid data feeds suggests reliable market data.
Pick Hedger if you're a serious equity investor who wants to verify every number — IBKR options, return attribution per period, Czech tax report, audit trail to the source CSV row.
Use both: Genuinely complementary. Brycht for market screening and research, Hedger for tracking your actual portfolio. Very little overlap today.
