DIV0

A financial analysis engine for serious investors who demand more than a screener.

The investor who does the work.

As a starting point, we're building around five core features we believe will deliver the most actionable intelligence. That said, DIV0 is in active development and we're constantly learning. Features may evolve, change, or expand at any time. What you see here is an early preview of the concept we're building toward. See a feature you want that isn't included? We value your feedback. Reach out through the early access or contact forms and we'll get back to you.

Long-Term Buyers by Default

DIV0 scores favor companies with durable competitive advantages, consistent growth, and the financial health to sustain distributions through economic cycles. Speculative or momentum-driven names will not score well on our criteria.

🛡️
Margin of Safety as a Scoring Input

Valuation discipline is embedded in the scoring model. A company that scores well on dividend safety and financial health but trades at a significant premium to its DCF fair value will see that premium reflected in its composite score.

📋
Fundamentals Over Narrative

DIV0 analyzes what a business does financially, what its statements show, and what its historical performance demonstrates, not what it promises. Earnings quality, FCF coverage, debt management, and operational consistency matter more than growth stories.

💡
Conviction Positioning

Not every opportunity comes with a decade of history behind it. DIV0's scoring model includes a concession framework for companies with significant present operational advantages: businesses where the fundamental case is credible and improving, even if the track record is still being written. If the reasoning holds up and matches your investor profile, DIV0 will surface it. Clearly labeled as a conviction position, not a score-validated one. A separate lane, not a workaround.

Built for the investor who does the work.

DIV0 is not a tool for passive investors. It is built for people who want to understand what they own and why.

Pro-sumer Investor

You research like an analyst.
Now you have the tools to match.

You already read 10-Ks, track FCF, and think in years. DIV0 gives you the institutional modeling layer you've been building manually: PRISM™ scoring, DCF intrinsic value, capital structure analysis, and a written thesis for every position. All in one place.

Not just a tracker. A research engine.

Five modules, one engine. Every part of DIV0 runs through the same PRISM™ scoring model, from opportunity discovery to watchlist alerts to portfolio analysis.

Home

Your daily starting point.

The Home dashboard answers one question when you log in: what do I need to pay attention to today? It pulls your portfolio health, watchlist movement, and market context into one view, no digging required.

🔷
PRISM Score

A composite score out of 100 built across five dimensions: dividend safety, valuation, growth quality, financial health, and total return. ETFs are scored on a separate model covering cost efficiency, performance, diversification, income, and risk.

Every filter, ranking, and alert on the platform is tied to PRISM™. The underlying methodology and weights are proprietary.

Financial Stability Dividend History Growth Opportunity Competitive Moat SWOT Fundamentals
🎯
Intrinsic Value & Margin of Safety

DIV0 calculates a DCF-based intrinsic value for every company. Add it to your watchlist, set a personal margin of safety threshold, and receive an alert when the stock crosses into your target zone, including a plain-language explanation of why the price moved and a Thesis Integrity Flag: Intact, Under Review, or Risk Elevated.

You define what a buying opportunity looks like. DIV0 tells you when it's there and what drove it.

Intrinsic Value Watchlist Custom Safety Threshold Opportunity Alerts
⚠️
Explicit Risk Assessment

DIV0 doesn't treat risk as something to eliminate — it treats risk as something to understand, price, and weigh deliberately. Beta, D/E ratio, interest coverage, credit rating, and current ratio are all scored and benchmarked against sector peers.

🏗️
Capital Structure Scenarios

Leverage scenario modeling that visualizes how different financing decisions (issuing new debt, repurchasing shares, or restructuring existing obligations) affect the company's cost of capital and financial position.

🔍
Opportunities & Threats

Qualitative analysis of the company's competitive position drawn from news headlines, financial report narratives, moat strength, and industry headwinds, structured as a clear Opportunities and Threats section in every report.

📄
White Paper Investment Thesis

The final 0–100 score is accompanied by a written investment thesis explaining why the score was assigned. The investor evaluates the logic — not just a black box number. Reasoning you can actually read and challenge.

📅
10-Year Financial Drill-Down

Click any metric and see a decade of history — full income statement, cash flow statement (operating/investing/financing), and balance sheet, all in one place. What used to take days to compile.

🔀
Stock + ETF in One Tool

Toggle between stock and ETF analysis. ETF mode includes expense ratio cost drag, factor exposure analysis, tax efficiency scoring, and holdings concentration risk.

Full Reasoning Transparency

Every source. Every step.

DIV0 doesn't just hand you a score; it shows its reasoning. Every output is grounded in clear, plain-language explanations of what the data means and why it matters. The depth a professional researcher would expect. The clarity any user deserves.

Intelligence Applied.

Palu Ventures was built on the belief that rigorous financial analysis shouldn't require a research team or a six-figure software budget. The methodology exists. The data exists. What was missing was a tool built for the serious individual — the investor who thinks and researches carefully, but invests on their own terms.

DIV0 is the first product out of that thesis. A financial analysis engine for investors who want institutional depth without the institutional price tag.

We're a small team with backgrounds across finance, actuarial science, and software engineering. We care about getting things right, and we're always open to connecting with people who are building things that matter.

Our Principles
🔍
Institutional Rigor
We don't cut corners on the methodology. If something is worth building, it should work the way a professional would expect it to.
🔒
Accessible by Default
Price shouldn't be the reason someone can't access a good tool. We build things that are useful without the price tag that usually comes with them.
Speed & Clarity
Good analysis should tell you something. We focus on making the output clear enough that you actually know what to do with it.

Our Team

A small team with backgrounds across finance, actuarial science, and software engineering, brought together to build something worth building.

Agustin Parraguez-Huisman

Agustin Parraguez-Huisman

Founder & CFO
Agustin's interest in financial analysis began as a sophomore at Calvin University, where coursework in corporate finance required building financial models by hand. That process sparked the idea for DIV0, a platform to automate and iterate rigorous financial analysis and signaling. He has spent years in financial services, developing a practitioner's understanding of how individuals actually make financial decisions and where the tools available to them fall short. He handles the financial modeling, research, and product direction at Palu Ventures.
Shelby Ripley

Shelby Ripley

Co-Founder & Chief Risk Officer
Shelby is a seasoned actuary and Hillsdale College graduate in History and Latin, a background that reflects an analytical discipline rooted in rigorous thinking rather than rote technical training. As an Advisor and Actuary at Priority Health, he applies probabilistic modeling, long-term risk analysis, and statistical validation to complex financial datasets. At Palu Ventures, he brings that same discipline to DIV0, leading backtesting, methodology validation, and ensuring every output the platform produces meets institutional standards.
Henri Prudhomme

Henri Prudhomme

Co-Founder & Lead Software Engineer
Henri is a Staff Software Engineer at Stryker with over seven years of experience building production medical device software. He holds a BS in Computer Science from Calvin University and a Master's degree in Robotics and Autonomous Systems from Johns Hopkins University. He began his research career at KAMSC applying machine learning models to clinical datasets and went on to design satellite structures for the Air Force Research Laboratory through Western Aerospace Launch Initiative. Henri brings mission-critical engineering discipline to DIV0's platform architecture; building systems that are reliable, scalable, and precise.
