Actionable insights

What to do, not just what happened

20+ alert types watch every position for coverage breakdowns, NAV erosion, payout-ratio spikes, and tax-loss windows. HeyDividend AI then turns each alert into a concrete next step — trim, harvest, or rebalance — so you act before the market does.

NAV erosion

Spot funds that pay you with your own money

High-yield ETFs and CEFs can erode NAV while the headline yield looks fine. Our verdict panel scores every fund's 24-month NAV trend and tells you whether the distribution is truly covered — proprietary to HeyDividend, on every ticker page.
