# Allocation Screener

## Overview

**Allocation Screener** gives you a market-wide, tabular overview of how projects allocate their tokens. Instead of analyzing one project at a time, you can scan the entire market and compare supply distribution across stakeholder groups standardized through Tokenomist’s [standard-allocations](https://docs.unlocks.app/methodology/standard-allocations "mention").

## Accessing Allocation Screener

You’ll find **Allocation Screener** under the Allocation tab, next to Compare Allocation, or through the sidebar. It opens by default in **Total supply** view, but you can switch to **Unlocked** <i class="fa-square-web-awesome-stroke">:square-web-awesome-stroke:</i> or **Locked** <i class="fa-square-web-awesome-stroke">:square-web-awesome-stroke:</i>.

## Using Allocation Screener

The table lists projects row by row, with allocation categories shown as columns. For each category, you’ll see both the **percentage of total supply** and the **value in USD**.

Filters at the top allow you to narrow results by sector (AI, DeFi, L1, L2, etc.), and with **Pro** you can toggle between unlocked, locked, and total distributions. The table is sortable by percentage or value, and fully searchable.

## Why It Matters

Allocation Screener lets you compare the *structure* of projects at scale. Two projects may have the same emissions outlook, but if one is dominated by private investors while another leans heavily toward community, the long term incentives and risks look very different.
