Financial Datasets Review, Pricing, and Features
Financial Datasets
Developer-focused stock market data platform: REST API + official remote MCP server. Equity market coverage is US-only today; non-US equities, options, indices, and currencies are explicitly listed as “not yet available.” Plan gating: Developer is an individual license (1,000 req/min); Pro adds data redistribution license + unlimited requests + crypto; Enterprise is custom (dedicated compute/support). Also offers pay-as-you-go credits with published per-endpoint costs, including some $0.00 endpoints. Commercial/redistribution use is governed by licensing terms in the Terms of Service.

Key features
- Simple REST API designed for “AI financial agents, portfolio management tools, stock analysis platforms, quantitative trading algorithms,” with endpoints for financial statements, stock prices, segmented financials, insider trades, institutional ownership, SEC filings, crypto prices, news, and more.
- Market coverage for equities: “Complete US public company data” with “100% coverage” of US publicly-traded companies (30,000+ tickers), including active and delisted stocks; non-US markets not yet available.
- Stock prices endpoint supports minute/day/week/month/year intervals and pulls prices from verified exchanges like NASDAQ, NYSE, and AMEX (useful for charting/backtesting workflows).
- Stock Screener endpoint screens stocks by applying multiple fundamental filters (field/operator/value) across available financial metrics.
- Institutional ownership dataset is sourced from Form 13F filings (investment managers with $100M+ AUM); documentation notes the 45-day reporting lag from quarter end.
- SEC filings support includes listing filings and extracting raw text by filing “items” from 10‑K/10‑Q/8‑K (optionally including exhibits).
- Official remote MCP server for AI assistants/agents with programmatic + streamable HTTP + SSE endpoints; supports OAuth 2.1 (interactive) and API-key (programmatic) authentication.
- Pricing/plan gating: Developer ($200/mo) = individual license + 1,000 req/min + “all core endpoints”; Pro ($2,000/mo) = redistribution license + unlimited requests + “all endpoints + crypto”; Enterprise = custom w/ dedicated compute/support.
- Credits (pay-as-you-go): published per-endpoint costs (e.g., GET /prices $0.01/request; GET /news $0.02/request), and some endpoints are $0.00/request (Company Facts, Earnings Press Releases).

These are my top picks. Tools I've tested thoroughly and found to be excellent. They do their job really well, and I use them a lot. If you're not already familiar with them, I highly recommend checking them out.
Tested Tools
These are tools I've tried and found to be solid, but not standout. Think of them as passing an initial quality screen: worth exploring, though not all will be exceptional.
Curation & Accuracy
This directory blends AI‑assisted discovery with human curation. Entries are reviewed, edited, and organized with the goal of expanding coverage and sharpening quality over time. Your feedback helps steer improvements (because no single human can capture everything all at once).
Details change. Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date. Treat listings as a starting point and verify on the provider’s site before making decisions. If you spot an error or a gap, send a quick note and I’ll adjust.
