TickerTrends API & MCP Offerings Explore TickerTrends alternative-data API, enterprise feeds, and MCP access for eligible investment research workflows. ## Alternative data API and MCP Pre-purchase intelligence feeds, model outputs, and workflow integrations for investment research. TickerTrends offers an alternative data API and MCP for investment research workflows. Use eligible feeds to access source-level signals, trackers, and selected modeled outputs. Metrics may be estimated, transformed, delayed, incomplete, or revised. They do not guarantee company, market, or investment outcomes. ### Enterprise feeds Enterprise feeds provide structured data for institutional research and internal data platforms. #### TickerTrends Trackers Feed Standardized time-series trackers cover consumer usage, interest, social interest, ecommerce demand, developer activity, and other demand signals. * Historical time series * Comparable across companies #### Data Source KPI Feed Underlying source-level KPIs are tickerized and structured for deeper analysis and custom research workflows. * Source-specific metrics * Useful for custom modeling #### KPI Tracking Feed KPI Tracking outputs can include revision history for selected revenue, KPI, and operating-metric estimates. * Latest forecast values * Revision direction and velocity #### Social Discussion Feed Structured discussion data tracks products, brands, and companies gaining or losing attention. Coverage spans major social channels and countries. * Volume and growth * Topic, narrative, and regional tracking #### Catalyst Feed Surface detected events and narrative changes for research review. * Consumer, B2B, TMT, and other sectors * Event and launch monitoring ### AI research integration #### TickerTrends MCP Connect TickerTrends to AI-enabled research workflows through a structured MCP layer. MCP supports retrieval and analysis without giving the connected client permission to modify TickerTrends data. See [TickerTrends MCP](/tickertrends/documentation-v2/4.-features-and-workflows/tickertrends-mcp.md) for connection instructions. MCP supports research workflows such as: * Ticker, KPI, and forecast research * Alternative-data and tracker analysis * Social discussion and catalyst research **Connect and authorize** 1. Configure the TickerTrends MCP connection in your supported AI client or research tool. 2. Open the MCP authorization page when prompted. 3. Sign in and approve the requested read-only access. 4. Return to the client and confirm that the connection is active. **Access requirements** MCP access requires an eligible enterprise account. An Enterprise Manager must enable MCP access for the organization before users can connect. **Revoke access** Users can revoke a connected client's authorization from the MCP authorization page. Enterprise Managers can disable MCP access for the organization. Disabling access prevents new MCP connections. ### Public API The Public API provides access to supported source-level endpoints. It uses API credits. Generate an API key in **API Settings**, then select an available endpoint. Purchase credits as a one-time balance or enable automatic recharge. The Public API is separate from MCP and enterprise data feeds. ### Enterprise feed access Enterprise feeds provide the standardized tracker, data-source KPI, forecast, social discussion, and catalyst datasets described above. They support internal research workflows, watchlists, and backtesting. Contact to discuss enterprise access and feed coverage. ### S3 and Snowflake delivery S3 and Snowflake provide enterprise delivery options for approved data feeds. Use them when your team needs data delivered into its own warehouse or pipeline. Contact to scope delivery, coverage, and pricing.
