In investing, outcomes are rarely decided by intelligence alone.
They are decided by process.
Most investors don’t struggle because they lack access to data. They struggle because:
- •They track too many stocks
- •They rely on scattered indicators
- •Or they follow opinions instead of logic
Prysm Screeners are built to fix this exact problem—by helping you convert investing ideas into structured, repeatable screening frameworks.
Whether you’re a long-term investor, a trader, or a serious learner, Prysm gives you the tools to screen smarter, not harder.
Why Stock Screeners Matter More Than Stock Tips
A stock tip answers a short-term question:
“What should I buy today?”
A screener answers a much deeper one:
“What kind of businesses deserve my capital—consistently?”
Good screeners help you:
- •Remove emotional and narrative bias
- •Narrow thousands of stocks into a focused watchlist
- •Apply the same logic across market cycles
Prysm is designed around one core belief:
Better decisions come from better frameworks—not louder opinions.
Research findings, data insights, and key considerations
Two Ways to Screen on Prysm: Expert Logic + Your Own Ideas
Prysm Screeners work on two complementary layers:
- Handcrafted Screeners – expert-built investing frameworks
- AI & Custom Screeners – your ideas, converted into logic instantly
This ensures you’re never limited—whether you want ready-made conviction or complete flexibility.
Handcrafted Screeners: Proven Frameworks, Ready to Use
Handcrafted Screeners are professionally designed screening models built around well-established investing philosophies.
Each screener answers a specific investing objective, not a generic metric mix.
What Makes Them Different?
They are:
- •Logic-first (you see why stocks qualify)
- •Transparent (every condition is visible)
- •Editable (you’re never locked into someone else’s view)
You don’t just get results—you get the reasoning behind them.
Growth Gems: How Prysm Screens for High-Quality Compounders
The Growth Gems screener on Prysm is built to identify companies that combine consistent growth with financial discipline. Instead of chasing high-growth names blindly, it filters for businesses that show strong returns, clean balance sheets, healthy cash flows, and reasonable valuations—key ingredients for long-term compounding.
The screener uses a layered framework where a stock must pass all condition sets, ensuring that growth is supported by quality, governance, and balance-sheet strength.
Key Conditions Used in Growth Gems
This framework helps surface businesses that are not just growing fast, but growing responsibly and sustainably—making Growth Gems a strong starting point for long-term investors seeking quality compounders.
Not Just Read-Only: Edit Any Screener and Make It Yours
One of Prysm’s most powerful features is full editability.Let’s learn step by step, how to edit any screener:
Step 1: Start With a Handcrafted Screener
Users can begin with expert-built frameworks like Growth Gems or Hidden Compounders.
These screeners already include well-thought-out conditions covering growth, quality, cash flow, leverage, governance, and valuation.
This saves time and gives users a strong base framework instead of starting from scratch.
Step 2: Open the Screener Logic
Each screener clearly displays:
- •All condition sets
- •The metrics used
- •The thresholds applied
- •The logical structure (AND / OR)
This transparency helps users understand why a stock qualifies, not just that it qualifies.
Step 3: Edit Conditions Based on Conviction
Users can now tailor the screener to their own style by:
- •Changing thresholds (e.g., ROCE >15% to >18%)
- •Removing conditions they don’t believe in
- •Adding new filters (valuation, leverage, growth, ownership)
- •Applying sector-specific filters (e.g., Defence, EMS, Auto Ancillary)
No rebuilding is required—everything is editable in place.
Step 4: Understand the AND / OR Logic
Prysm uses simple, intuitive logic:
- •Within a condition set: OR logic (any one condition can pass)
- •Across condition sets: AND logic (all sets must pass)
This allows flexibility (3Y or 5Y growth) while maintaining discipline across quality checks.
Step 5: Apply, Run, and Review Results
Once edits are made, users can:
- •Apply and run the screener instantly
- •Review which stocks pass or fail
- •Refine conditions further if results are too broad or too narrow
This iterative process helps users sharpen their investing framework over time.
Step 6: Save and Reuse the Screener
The modified screener can be:
- •Saved as a personal framework
- •Re-run every quarter or earnings season
- •Updated as market conditions or convictions change
Over time, this becomes a repeatable investing system, not a one-time filter.
Build From Scratch: Create Your Own Screener
Not every strategy fits into a predefined box—and Prysm allows you to build screeners from scratch. You can select your stock universe, add condition sets across growth, profitability, valuation, leverage, and ownership, define thresholds, and save the screener.
Once saved, the screener becomes a reusable framework, not a one-time filter.
AI Screener: From Ideas to Logic
For investors who think in ideas rather than ratios, Prysm’s AI Screener turns plain-English inputs into working screeners. Describe what you’re looking for—such as improving margins or rising promoter holding—and the AI builds the logic automatically. You can review, edit, and save it like any handcrafted screener, making it useful for long-term investors, traders, and professionals who value clarity and consistency.
Investors often use this to track:
- •Midcaps with strong growth and low debt
- •PSU stocks with improving return ratios
- •Consumption and capital goods companies aligned with long-term trends
You can even edit or make changes in the screener using AI prompts
Conclusion
Prysm Screeners help investors move from guesswork to systematic decision-making. By combining handcrafted frameworks, full editability, and AI-powered screening, Prysm enables users to build clear, repeatable investing processes. Instead of chasing ideas, investors can consistently focus on businesses that truly fit their conviction—across sectors and market cycles.
