About ValueOS

Our Mission

ValueOS is the investment decision operating system — a free platform that combines Warren Buffett's six decades of shareholder letter wisdom with real-time financial data to help you make better-informed, data-driven value investments.

We believe the best investment framework already exists: it's embedded in Buffett's 60 years of candid, instructive letters to shareholders. ValueOS extracts that wisdom, structures it, and pairs it with modern financial analysis tools — so you can think like Buffett and decide with data.

How It Works

📖

Learn

Explore 35+ years of Buffett shareholder letters, organized by year, concept, and company.

📊

Analyze

Run DCF valuations, Buffett Scores, and moat analysis on any U.S. stock using free SEC data.

🎯

Decide

Bring Buffett's framework together with real financial data for clearer investment decisions.

Methodology

Letter Sources: All shareholder letter content is sourced from the official Berkshire Hathaway website. We extract and structure the text for optimal search and cross-referencing.

Financial Data: Stock fundamental data comes from the SEC EDGAR XBRL API — the official, free source of all U.S. company filings. Current prices are sourced from Alpha Vantage. Both are updated periodically.

Valuation Engine:Our DCF calculator, Owner Earnings formula, and ValueOS Score are implemented from Buffett's described methodology — not AI guesses. All calculations are transparent and auditable.

Accuracy: All letter quotes are verified against original sources. Financial data is pulled directly from SEC filings. Where data is unavailable, we display N/A rather than estimated values.
