For finance users it functions as an alerting / web-scraping layer on top of regulator, IR, pricing or news sites rather than a traditional market data feed. API, webhooks, most third‑party integrations (Slack/Teams/Sheets), bulk upload, reporting/export and faster check intervals (down to ~2 minutes) are restricted to Visualping for Business / Enterprise tiers.
