In depth comparison
Multpl
multpl.com
Free, lightweight site for long‑term charts and tables of S&P 500 valuation metrics (P/E, Shiller CAPE, P/S, P/B, earnings yield), dividends/earnings/sales per share, US Treasury rates & real yields, CPI/inflation, GDP, population and income stats. Each page cites original sources (S&P Global, US Treasury, BLS, BEA, Robert Shiller). Historical series are typically monthly/quarterly; many pages show the current value with an end‑of‑day timestamp. Multpl does not advertise a first‑party API, but much of its curated data is available as the **MULTPL** database on **Nasdaq Data Link (formerly Quandl)** with REST/CSV/JSON access.

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 Pricing, features, and availability may be incomplete or out of date.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