EODHD vs Financial Modeling Prep (FMP)
Trying to decide between EODHD and Financial Modeling Prep (FMP)? Here's how they compare on pricing, features, and platforms — and which one fits the way you invest.
EODHD
Best for news sentiment and delisted
Market-data API provider (REST + WebSocket) with personal-use and separate commercial-use plans. Free plan shows 20 API calls/day; paid personal plans start at $19.99/mo and support 30+ years of historical data for major markets. EODHD now explicitly positions for AI-agent workflows via an official MCP server, OpenAPI 3.1 spec, AI Agent Skills, and ChatGPT assistant. Paid plans default to 100,000 daily API calls and a 1000-requests/minute rate limit; per-endpoint “API call” consumption varies by dataset. Some datasets are add-ons/marketplace products (e.g., US options; US tick data), and commercial redistribution is covered by separate B2B plans.
Financial Modeling Prep (FMP)
Best for inflation rates and GDP
Multi‑asset market‑data vendor focused on REST and WebSocket APIs for equities, funds, FX, crypto, commodities, macro and ESG/ownership data. Plans scale by geography, history depth and datasets: Basic is a free EOD sandbox; Starter unlocks real‑time U.S. coverage; Premium adds UK/Canada, longer history, intraday charts, technicals and corporate calendars; Ultimate adds global coverage, earnings call transcripts, ETF/mutual fund and 13F holdings, 1‑minute intraday and bulk delivery with higher rate limits and bandwidth caps. Official FAQs clarify that short‑interest data and some index datasets (e.g., Russell 2000) are not provided at this time.
