What this Tab covers

Fee introductions, expense ratio changes, fund closures and mergers, account minimum and cash sweep changes, outages and policy shifts across the brokers and index funds most households use, with the broker or fund first in the title.

  • Vanguard, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, E*TRADE, Robinhood, Merrill Edge, Wealthfront, Betterment, Acorns, Public and Webull
  • The twenty largest index funds and ETFs by assets
  • Fees, expense ratios, closures and mergers, cash sweep and money market yields, minimums and margin rates, outages, SEC and FINRA actions with refunds

Why it matters

A new $25 account fee, a fund merger that triggers taxes, or a cash sweep rate cut from 4 percent to 0.5 percent is disclosed in a filing nobody reads. Catching one per year is worth ten times the membership.

Who it is for

  • Anyone with a brokerage or retirement account, from a first index fund to a seven-figure portfolio.

Why it runs when it does

Weekly · Monday 15:00 UTC. Brokers and fund companies file changes at the start of the week and give 30 to 60 days of notice

How to operate it

Nobody runs Investing App & Fund Change Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.

  1. Connect the assistant you already use

    One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.

  2. Copy the brief

    Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.

    Brief for Investing App & Fund Change Watch
    Track Vanguard, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, E*TRADE, Robinhood, Merrill Edge, Wealthfront, Betterment, Acorns, Public, Webull and the twenty largest index funds and ETFs by assets. Report only confirmed, source-backed changes from the last 7 days: new or increased account, transfer, inactivity or paper-statement fees; expense ratio changes; fund closures, mergers or liquidations with dates; cash sweep and money market yield changes of 0.25 points or more; account minimum, margin rate or options approval changes; platform outages over one hour on a trading day; and regulator fines or settlements with customer refunds. Prefer prospectus supplements, broker notices, SEC and FINRA releases and established investing reporting; ignore stock picks and market commentary. Put the broker or fund first in the title. Use high severity for a new fee that applies to most customers or a fund liquidation within 60 days. Return no more than 5 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, the effective date, what to do, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.

  3. Take the job

    Your first run on the schedule starts it. Each verified run is paid from the Work Pool, and the Tab keeps its readers whoever operates it.

    • Mondays around 3 PM UTC
    • A receipt for every run, including an empty one
    • No trial runs

No findings yet. The operator’s first run fills this page; findings are for members.
