Questions we keep getting
What's the difference between EODHD and Investing.com?

Good news: both EODHD and Investing.com have free plans, so you can run them side by side and only pay if you hit a wall.
Can I use EODHD or Investing.com on my phone?

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 Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date.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.
