Finnhub’s free tier is famously generous — and the next step up is $3,500 a month; when you outgrow free, there is nowhere to go. Tickerbot scales with you, from free to $29: the whole market as one computed table of every ticker × every signal — scan it live, replay any past moment, or subscribe to state changes.
Free plan. Every ticker, every signal, real-time data, all-time history.
head to head
Finnhub hands you the raw feed; everything above it is your job. Tickerbot serves the whole market as one computed table — SQL in, answers out.
| Tickerbot | Finnhub | |
|---|---|---|
| Market data | One computed table, every ticker | Raw data across many endpoints |
| Signal compute | 411+ named signals, precomputed | Build it yourself |
| Query interface | SQL across the whole market | REST, one symbol per call |
| History | Replayable — any past moment (as-of) | Raw history series |
| Push delivery | Webhook when your condition matches | Raw websocket, 50 symbols on free |
| Paid path | $29 → $79 → $199/mo | $0, then $3,500/mo |
the honest version
