Live event-driven alerts, an MCP server for AI assistants, white-label community briefings and a developer REST & WebSocket API, all on one normalized data engine.
Powering quantitative research and algorithmic execution
From autonomous alerts to AI agent tooling, every product runs on the same normalized data engine, shared cache and plan.
Load scales with unique symbols, not users, so quotes stay fast as you grow.
Webhooks carry a timestamped HMAC-SHA256 signature and only reach public HTTPS targets.
Briefings follow the NYSE calendar, skip full-day holidays and send exactly once.
Per-plan rate limits and daily quotas at the gateway, with metered overage on paid plans.
Define a trigger once. ApexTick evaluates it on every fresh tick and delivers the event wherever your desk lives: signed webhooks, Telegram, Discord, Slack, email or a REST event log.

Quotas are daily and reset at 00:00 UTC. On Trader Pro, Quant & Community and Enterprise your access is never interrupted: each request beyond the included daily volume is billed at your plan's overage rate ($0.002, $0.001 and $0.0005 per request). Hobbyist is hard-capped at 500 requests per day and is never billed.
Plans unlock in a staircase. Hobbyist covers quotes (with 52-week high/low), candles (1 year daily / 30 days intraday), movers (with GICS sector and min_market_cap filters) and ticker search. Trader Pro adds company fundamentals and corporate actions, technical indicators, rich ETF tearsheets, single-ticker options chains with Black-Scholes Greeks (/v1/options/chain), historical option contract bars with a 90-day lookback (/v1/options/history) and WebSocket streaming, with 5 years daily / 90 days intraday. Quant & Community adds the market-wide options screener (/v1/options/screener), multi-year history for active and expired option contracts back to 2019 (/v1/options/history) and ApexTick Excel Native with unlimited (15+ years) history. Enterprise adds 16,000+ macroeconomic and commodity series. Endpoints outside your plan return 403, and longer candle ranges are truncated to your plan's depth.
Register https://api.apextick.com/mcp as a remote MCP server and send your API key in the apikey header. Hobbyist includes get_quote, search_tickers, get_watchlist_brief and get_price_history; Trader Pro adds analyze_ticker, explain_price_move and get_options_chain; Quant & Community and Enterprise add screen_market. Your client only lists the tools your plan includes.
All support is asynchronous by email: technical and account questions go to [email protected] and billing questions to [email protected]. We don't offer phone or video calls. We typically reply within 1 business day, with priority handling for Quant & Community and Enterprise plans.
Every webhook carries X-ApexTick-Signature: t=<unix seconds>,v1=<hex>, an HMAC-SHA256 of "<t>.<body>" keyed with the signing secret returned once when you create the alert. Recompute it on receipt and reject stale timestamps.
The pre-market briefing goes out at 08:30 ET and the closing bell digest at 16:30 ET on every NYSE trading day. Full-day market holidays are skipped automatically, early-close days still receive both, and each briefing is delivered exactly once.
ApexTick aggregates, normalizes, and serves data from a proprietary blend of institutional feeds, SIPs, and direct exchange connections. Our ultra-low latency architecture ensures you receive this data with sub-millisecond routing overhead.
We provide Active Intraday Pricing and Consolidated Market Snapshots designed for heavy quantitative workloads, backtesting, and algorithmic execution. While our WebSocket feeds are highly dynamic, we do not market our feeds for sub-second NBBO High-Frequency Trading (HFT) arbitrage.
