ℹ️ About Public.com

About Public.com Public.com is a commission-free, multi-asset investment platform built for retail investors seeking institutional-grade access to stocks, ETFs, bonds, options, and crypto — all in one place.

The platform uniquely eliminates payment for order flow (PFOF) on equities, offering options rebates instead of charging per-contract fees, making it one of the most cost-transparent brokers in the US.

Public's AI-powered assistant, Alpha, delivers real-time market insights, stock analysis, and portfolio intelligence — positioning it as a data-driven investing tool beyond simple trade execution.

With fractional bond investing starting at $100, direct indexing from $1,000, and Treasury bill access, Public democratizes fixed-income and passive strategies historically reserved for institutional investors.

In November 2025, Public launched its 'Agentic Brokerage' — a three-part AI system enabling custom stock indexes via plain-language commands and eventual full portfolio automation for retail users.
