How AI is used

Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) is a financial data API platform that provides access to real-time and historical data for stocks, ETFs, cryptocurrencies, forex, and commodities. It is designed for developers, quantitative researchers, and financial analysts who need programmatic access to market data and company fundamentals.

The service offers over 100 endpoints, supporting the retrieval of income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements, as well as analyst estimates and earnings call transcripts. Data is delivered in JSON and CSV formats via REST API, WebSocket streaming, and bulk download options.
