# Finterm

> Finterm is a free, browser-based, keyboard-first financial terminal — a lightweight alternative to Bloomberg, TradingView and Koyfin. It runs entirely in the browser (on Cloudflare Workers, no install) and offers live crypto + equities charts, SEC EDGAR fundamentals, a scriptable indicator sandbox, spreadsheets with live market formulas, a JS backtester, and a Bookmap-style order-book heatmap.

Finterm organizes everything into a workspace of floating "windows" (charts, spreadsheets, SEC filings, news, and more) that can be tiled, popped out, exported as `.ftm`, or shared by link. It is free to use; an account is optional and only persists workspaces. Market data is proxied through a single caching gateway — there are no third-party trackers and no client-side calls to upstream APIs.
