What people say about Sharesight, and what Nimblewit does instead.
A 10-holding free plan, then a jump
Reviewers say 10 holdings is restrictive for most investors and that paid plans feel expensive for mid-sized portfolios. Sharesight reviews on Trustpilot
Nimblewit Builder is CA$49 a year for 5 accounts and 50 holdings, and the same symbol held in several accounts counts once.
Dividend reinvestment done by hand
Reviewers note that automatic reinvestment tracking is limited to ASX and NZX stocks, and everything else must be entered manually. Sharesight review
Nimblewit lets you set reinvestment for each holding, either cash, fractional or whole shares, and the projection compounds the reinvested shares.
Heavy reports, tools behind higher tiers
Reviewers describe a learning curve for new investors, and say some advanced reports and forecasting sit on higher-tier plans. Sharesight review
Nimblewit keeps it plain: Overview, Holdings, Performance, Income, Allocation, Planning and Trades, with the Planning tab on Planner.
Built for the investor who wants to see the income.
Income you can see and plan around
Dividends and distributions have their own tab: what you have been paid, a 12-month calendar of declared and estimated payments, projected annual income, and yield on cost.
Reinvestment that compounds
Set cash, fractional or whole-share reinvestment for each holding. Reinvested shares count toward the next payment, so projections grow the way your portfolio does.
Planning tools
On Planner, the Planning tab projects your portfolio and income with your own ages, withdrawal rate and scenarios. It is an illustration, not advice.
Nothing to disconnect
You bring in statements, CSV files or screenshots and review every row before it is saved. There are no bank feeds to drop and no logins to share, and your own records always win over estimates.
Built for registered accounts
TFSA, RRSP, FHSA, RESP and non-registered accounts are treated correctly, including US withholding by account type. Your data is stored in Canada.
Room to grow, at a fair price
A free plan to start, 5 accounts on Builder at CA$49 a year, and no limits on Planner. Real benchmarks, with your own on Planner.

Both have free plans at 10 holdings. Nimblewit's Starter plan also covers 2 accounts and includes dividends received. Every new account gets Builder free for 30 days with no card, which adds the 12-month income calendar.
Does Nimblewit do tax reports?
No. Nimblewit shows income, returns and cost on an average-cost basis, but it is not for tax preparation. If you need capital gains reports for filing, Sharesight is built for that.
