Dilution Impact Calculator & Portfolio Tracker
A browser plugin that integrates with brokerage platforms (Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Interactive Brokers) and financial data APIs to automatically flag dilution events (secondary offerings, stock splits, option exercises, warrant conversions) for stocks in a user's portfolio. It calculates real-time ownership % change, voting power impact, and projected return dilution, then surfaces this in a simple dashboard overlay within the brokerage interface itself.

Individual investors struggle to understand and calculate the real impact of stock dilution on their ownership and returnsIndividual investors lack clear, practical guidance on how share dilution affects their equity stake, voting power, and investment returns. Current financial resources either oversimplify the concept or bury it in dense academic explanations, leaving retail investors unable to make informed decisions about stock splits, secondary offerings, and option exercises. This knowledge gap causes investors to either ignore dilution risks entirely or make poor portfolio decisions based on incomplete understanding.
