Please do provide your detailed feedback if you are using it.

I would approach this website, as I do any financial website that promises "Buffett-like" returns, with skepticism. I reviewed the website months ago and found that it tries to make investing a scientific "black box" endeavor. On one hand the website comments on how Buffett doesn't rely on formulas to drive his investments, but then touts its proprietary models that help investors value stocks. DCF models are deemed unreliable because small changes in their inputs can result in varying results. Isn't that true for any valuation model including his own.
Any valuation model, whether it be a Rule #1 earnings model or a DCF model, is limited by the inputs one makes. The real science when using models is the inputs we choose to use, and even that is more art then science.
