Where PineGen AI is stronger
- A free plan. You can try PineGen AI with 5 credits a month. Edgoro has no free tier for its builder; its free generator on the site is limited to 3 scripts a month.
- See it before you paste. The live preview chart and the backtest summary (P&L, drawdown, trades, win rate, profit factor) let you judge a strategy without leaving the app.
- Compiler validation for Pine. PineGen AI says it validates against TradingView's v6 compiler during generation. Edgoro checks Pine Script with its own v6 checker, Edgoro Pine Check, which isn't TradingView's compiler; the Pine Editor has the final word, and you paste any error back.
- Code explanation and debugging of pasted scripts on its paid plans.
Where Edgoro is different
- Price. $29 a month or $49 once for Pine Script and chart analysis, against $39 or $99 a month.
- More than TradingView. With the bots option, Edgoro writes MQL5 Expert Advisors for MetaTrader 5, compiled in MetaEditor with up to two automatic fixes, and Python crypto bots for Binance, Bybit and OKX. PineGen AI's site mentions only Pine Script.
- AI chart analysis from a screenshot of any platform, in both plans.
- Refunds. Edgoro refunds an unused first purchase within 7 days. PineGen AI's refund policy says purchases are non-refundable once completed, apart from billing errors.
