Compare Performance & Portfolios of Robo Advisors

This a simple chart to compare the 90% stock / 10% bond portfolios of the most popular robo-advisors. Wealthsimple and Acorns only have 80% stock / 20% bond portfolios so we used those for this comparison.

Data is from our actual portfolios on each platform, includes dividends and is updated automatically once a day. Comparison starts from 2013 because BNDX is used in Betterment's portfolio and was only created in 2013.

You may find this useful for choosing a robo-advisor to use or for building your own portfolio at a stock broker.
