## Frequently asked questions

What is Financial Datasets?
Financial Datasets is an institutional-grade stock market API. It provides financial statements, operating KPIs, stock prices, SEC filings, insider trades, institutional ownership, earnings data, and more. The API is built for AI agents, quantitative research, and financial applications.

How much does the API cost?
There are three plans. Credits is a one-time $20 purchase that includes 1,000 requests, ideal for testing and small projects. Build is $200 per month and includes 100,000 requests with access to all core data endpoints and real-time data. Scale is a custom plan for teams that need high volume, earnings KPIs and guidance, webhooks, zero data retention, and uptime SLAs.

How long does it take to get set up?
Less than 30 seconds. All you need to do is [sign up](/login), buy requests, and include your API key in the X-API-KEY header of your first request. You can see the quick start guide [here](https://docs.financialdatasets.ai/quickstart).

What data coverage does Financial Datasets have?
The API covers more than 27,000 US tickers, including delisted companies, with over 30 years of historical data. Coverage spans financial statements (standardized, segmented, and as-reported), stock prices, financial metrics, earnings and press releases, insider trades, institutional ownership, company news, SEC filings, and central bank interest rates. Market coverage details are [here](https://docs.financialdatasets.ai/market-coverage).

Does the API provide real-time stock prices?
Yes. Real-time price snapshots and historical prices are available on all paid plans, with historical intervals from daily to yearly. Response times are typically under 200 milliseconds.

How do I authenticate with the API?
Send your API key in the X-API-KEY header with every request. You can create an API key from the dashboard at financialdatasets.ai after registering. You can see our guide on how to get fundamentals [here](https://docs.financialdatasets.ai/guides/analyze-financial-statements-python).

Can I use Financial Datasets with AI agents and LLMs?
Yes, the API is designed for AI agents. There is a hosted MCP server at mcp.financialdatasets.ai that works with Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients, an OpenAPI spec at financialdatasets.ai/openapi.json, and llms.txt files that give LLMs a complete map of the API.

Where does the data come from?
Data is sourced from primary documents such as SEC filings, earnings releases, and press releases. Values are verified against the underlying source documents to meet an institutional accuracy bar. Stock prices come from a leading licensed data provider. More info [here](https://docs.financialdatasets.ai/data-provenance).

What happens if I run out of requests?
You can enable auto-reload, which automatically tops up your credits when your balance runs low so your requests keep working. You can also buy more credits at any time, and if you regularly need higher volume, talk to us about a custom plan.

Do you offer enterprise plans?
Yes. Contact us [here](/contact).
