# CirclFi — Institutional-Grade Stock Valuation Engine

> CirclFi is an equity valuation platform that runs 13 independent valuation models on thousands of US stocks daily using data from SEC EDGAR, FRED, and GDELT. Every stock receives a Quality of Company (QOC) score (0-10) and fair value estimates from models spanning DCF, EPV, multiples, sentiment, and machine learning methodologies.
