About Wikilix
Clarity Before Commitment
Wikilix helps people research brokers, understand their regulatory position, and spot important risks. We bring broker data, regulatory records, trading details, and community feedback together in one clearer platform.
Broker Intelligence
Clear broker profiles built from regulatory records, company information, trading details, and ongoing research.
Global Coverage
More than 2,200 broker profiles across 150+ countries and markets, with new profiles added every month.
Independent Research
Broker ratings and risk indicators designed to inform research—not to promote a particular broker.

Our Mission
Making broker information clearer
We work to make broker information easier to find, compare, and understand. Wikilix brings regulatory records, company details, and trading conditions together into profiles that show what is documented, what is claimed, and where the two do not line up — so that a decision can rest on evidence rather than on marketing.
Our Vision
A clearer standard for broker research
We want broker research to be something a person can do in an afternoon rather than something that requires industry knowledge. Over time we are working toward profiles complete enough, and sourced clearly enough, that a reader can see for themselves how each conclusion was reached.
How We Work
Step 01
Discover
We track brokers across public sources — regulator registers, corporate filings, company websites, and the pages where brokers publish their own terms. New firms are added as we find them, and existing profiles are revisited as those sources change.
Step 02
Check
We compare what a broker says with what its regulators and filings show. Licences are checked against the register that issued them; trading conditions against the broker's own published terms. Where the sources disagree, or a record cannot be confirmed, we record that rather than resolve it.
Step 03
Explain
We publish what we found in plain language, next to the record it came from. Ratings and risk indicators summarise a profile, but the underlying detail stays visible so a reader can weigh it differently than we did.
The principles behind our work
Our Core Values
Clarity
Broker information is scattered across registers, filings, and marketing pages written for different audiences. We treat making it readable as part of the work, not a presentation layer added at the end.
Evidence
We give greater weight to what a regulator's register, a corporate filing, or a broker's own published terms will show than to what a broker says about itself. A claim we cannot trace to a source is reported as a claim.
Independence
Our ratings are not for sale, and a broker cannot pay to change its profile. Commercial relationships, where they exist, do not touch how a broker is assessed or where it appears.
Accountability
Where uncertainty remains, we say so rather than round it away, and we correct profiles when a reader or a broker shows us we are wrong. Being correctable matters more than appearing certain.
How Wikilix began
Our Story
Wikilix started in 2023 with a question that is harder to answer than it sounds: is this broker who it says it is? The information needed to answer it exists — in regulator registers, corporate filings, published terms — but it is spread across dozens of authorities, in several languages, in formats written for compliance officers rather than for the person about to open an account.
The first version was not a website. It was an internal effort to see whether broker records from different jurisdictions could be reconciled at all — whether the entity named on a licence, the entity operating a website, and the entity a trader ends up contracting with could be reliably connected. Often they could. Sometimes the gaps between them turned out to be the most useful thing on the page.
We opened the platform publicly in 2024 with a few hundred profiles. Early feedback changed how we wrote them. Readers were less interested in a single score than in knowing which parts of a profile were documented and which were the broker's own account of itself — so we began marking that distinction everywhere instead of blending the two into one verdict.
That principle still shapes the platform. A Wikilix profile is not a recommendation, and a high rating is not a promise that a broker is right for you. It is a summary of what the record shows, with the record kept in view so you can disagree with our reading of it.
Today Wikilix covers more than 2,200 brokers. You can browse them in the broker directory, check an authority in the regulator directory, compare live costs with the Spread Meter, work through the basics in our learning area, or follow developments in industry news. Wikilix Radar, our internal monitoring system, watches those sources for changes between reviews.
We are not finished, and we try not to write as though we were. Coverage is uneven across regions, some records are harder to verify than others, and there are questions readers ask that our data cannot yet answer. Those gaps are the roadmap.
Our Timeline
2023
1Wikilix is founded
Wikilix began as a research effort into whether broker records held by different regulatory authorities could be reconciled into a single, readable profile.
2024
2The platform opens publicly
The first public version launched with a few hundred profiles, regulatory records attached to each, and the line between documented facts and broker claims marked throughout.
2025
3Coverage expands
Profiles passed two thousand as coverage widened across more regions and markets, and continuous monitoring began flagging changes to licences and terms between scheduled reviews.
Today
4Where we are now
Wikilix maintains more than 2,200 broker profiles alongside regulator records, trading conditions, and community feedback, with new profiles added every month.
What's Next for Wikilix
The most useful thing we can add is not more brokers but better sourcing on the ones we already cover. We are working toward profiles where every material claim carries a visible reference to the record behind it.
Coverage remains uneven. Brokers regulated where public registers are well maintained are easier to document than those operating from places where the record is thin, and that unevenness currently shows up as differences in profile depth rather than as any warning to the reader. Closing that gap comes before expanding the total count.
We are also working on making change visible over time. A broker's licence status, its terms, and its corporate structure can all move quietly, and a profile that shows only the current state hides the part that is often most informative.
Alongside that, we are expanding the tools around the profiles — deeper comparison in the broker directory, wider authority coverage in the regulator directory, more instruments in the Spread Meter, and more material in our learning area and news for readers who want the context rather than the summary.
None of this makes broker research risk-free, and we would not want to suggest otherwise. What we can do is make the available evidence easier to find and harder to misread, and be clear about where the evidence runs out.
