How to browse earnings-call scores without Pro
You follow U.S. public companies. You want a clear 1–10 earnings-call sentiment score for a name you care about, without paying first.
On Tellvest, prior quarters are free to browse. The path is simple: open Companies, pick a ticker such as Apple Inc. (AAPL), and read the free prior-quarter score. No account is required to browse that free layer. Pro starts when you need the newest quarter and the forward-looking tools.
Tellvest is descriptive analysis for research only. It is not investment advice.
What is free vs Pro
- Free: Prior quarters for every company and for economy, sector, industry, and Mentions views. Company list with sentiment scores and trends. Analyst and firm tracker. Weekly week-ahead email (earnings calendar plus newly covered companies). No account needed to browse.
- Tellvest Pro ($12/month): The latest quarter everywhere the moment it is analyzed (companies, economy, sectors, industries, Mentions). Macro signal and theme screener, pre-earnings briefs, returns analysis and trade signal history, watchlist email alerts, and coverage requests. Cancel anytime.
- Trial: Every new account starts with 30 days of full Pro, free. No credit card required. When it ends, keep Pro for $12/month or stay on the free tier.
Pricing states it in one line: prior quarters are free to browse; Pro unlocks the newest quarter and the forward-looking tools, built from SEC filings and public earnings transcripts.
The free path is simple: Companies → a company page → free prior-quarter score → where Pro starts. For the full 1–10 rubric, use How to get a 1–10 sentiment score and About.
Open Company Screener
- Open Companies (the Company Screener).
- Read the free prior-quarter view. The page states that you are viewing each company’s prior quarter, and that the newest scores, filters, and the screener are part of Tellvest Pro.
- Scan the table for sentiment, quarter-over-quarter change, last earnings, and estimated next earnings across 500+ public companies.
- No account is required to browse this free prior-quarter list.
Live example: on Companies, Apple Inc. (AAPL) shows Positive 8.0/10, Δ QoQ ±0.0, last earnings Jul 30, 2026, est. next earnings Oct 29, 2026. Those figures are the free prior-quarter row; confirm the live table before you cite them elsewhere.
Open company page AAPL
- From the screener, open Apple Inc. (AAPL) (or go straight to that URL).
- On the company page, look for the free prior-quarter sentiment block, not the newest-quarter Pro unlock.
- Note what the page marks as Pro (for example Latest Score, 4-Period Change, and the newest quarter narrative) so you know which layer you are reading free.
On AAPL (checked 2026-09-21), the page also surfaces Challenge Rate 8% for all quarters. That company-level rate is available on the free page; newest-quarter Analyst Q&A detail is Pro. For how challenge rates work across analysts and firms, see How to grade sell-side analysts on earnings-call questions.
Read free prior-quarter score
On AAPL, the free prior-quarter read is explicit:
As of FY2026 Q2, the Tellvest earnings-call sentiment score for Apple Inc. (AAPL) is 8/10, unchanged from the prior quarter.
That score is scored from Apple’s FY2026 Q2 earnings call. The page also states: All prior quarters are free. The newest quarter on that page is part of Tellvest Pro.
Live free prior-quarter example:
| Field | Live value on AAPL |
|---|---|
| Free prior quarter | FY2026 Q2 |
| Sentiment score | 8/10 |
| QoQ change (as stated) | Unchanged from the prior quarter |
| Last earnings (page header) | Jul 30, 2026 |
| Est. next earnings | Oct 29, 2026 |
| Newest quarter (Pro) | FY2026 Q3 |
A score of 1 is a weak quarter. A score of 10 is a strong one. For how that 8/10 is built, open How to get a 1–10 sentiment score.
You can repeat the same free path for any covered ticker: Companies → company page → free prior-quarter score.
What stays behind Pro
Pro starts where the free prior-quarter layer ends. On AAPL (checked 2026-09-21), the page states that AAPL’s newest quarter (FY2026 Q3) is a Pro feature, and lists what that unlock includes:
- Full quarter narrative, key themes, and notable quotes
- Analyst Q&A with challenge rates and management responses
- Score breakdown and macro signals for the quarter
The same page notes that management-stated figures from AAPL’s newest call are part of Tellvest Pro, and that Latest Score and 4-Period Change are Pro.
Across the product, About and Pricing put the same line: Pro adds the newest quarter everywhere as earnings season unfolds, plus pre-earnings briefs, the macro signal and theme screener, returns analysis, trade signal history, watchlist email alerts, and coverage requests.
Free is enough to learn the path and compare prior quarters. Pro is for the current earnings season and the forward-looking tools.
Optional 30-day trial
You do not need an account to browse free prior quarters. If you want the newest quarter and Pro tools for a season, Pricing states:
Every new account starts with 30 days of full Pro, free. No credit card required. When it ends, keep Pro for $12/month or stay on the free tier.
On company pages such as AAPL, the Pro gate also offers unlock free for 30 days / see prior quarter free, with full Pro access for 30 days when you create a free account and no credit card required.
Optional path: stay on free prior quarters, or start the trial when you need FY2026 Q3 (or whatever the live newest quarter is) everywhere.
