>>> As a retail investor / layman, can you explain the benefits or workflow? (legalities, how to go about this, use cases)<<<<
All company insiders(e.g CEO,Directors etc) are required to report to the Government, stock transactions they make in their company. Many brokerages will give you this information on a per company basis.
What we have seen is there is a delay between one to three days. So the benefit is you get the information as it is reported.
What you do with this information is up to you. But being aware of large transactions by insiders could be a useful metric as part of your research.
For example here are transaction's that we came across on our insider page last night

There was ~120M of stock that was disposed of.
>>>What happens if this gets really popular -- will there be a gate/fee?<<<
We have some ideas on building specific insights on top of this, that we could consider as a paid feature. For now everything is free as we are learning about the pain points of investors. Our focus today is to learn from you what your pain points are as an individual investor and what you think about the application today?
