Financial data for AI agents

AI agents working in finance, trading, research, and business intelligence need access to real-time and historical financial data. Stock prices, crypto market data, company fundamentals, SEC filings, and economic indicators are essential inputs for analysis, reporting, and decision-making. Through Locus, your agent can query multiple financial data providers with pay-per-request pricing. No separate subscriptions to Alpha Vantage, CoinGecko, or any other provider — just call the endpoint and pay from your Locus Pro credit balance.

Available financial data providers

Alpha Vantage

Comprehensive stock market data including real-time and historical prices, technical indicators, fundamental data, earnings reports, and economic indicators. Covers US equities, ETFs, mutual funds, forex, and commodities. The catalog publishes the current price for each operation.

CoinGecko

A cryptocurrency data API for real-time prices, market caps, trading volumes, historical data, DeFi metrics, and NFT statistics. Each available operation carries its current per-request price in the catalog.

SEC EDGAR

Access company filings, 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly reports, insider trading data, and other regulatory filings from the SEC's EDGAR database. The catalog shows the current price before each request.

Financial agent workflows

  • •Market analysis — Agent pulls real-time stock prices from Alpha Vantage, crypto data from CoinGecko, and uses an LLM to generate market commentary and trading signals.
  • •Company research — Agent retrieves SEC filings, extracts key financial metrics, and compiles a due diligence report — combining EDGAR data with web search via Tavily.
  • •Portfolio monitoring — Agent tracks a portfolio of assets across stocks and crypto, alerts when prices hit targets, and generates daily performance summaries.
  • •Economic reporting — Pull GDP, inflation, employment, and interest rate data from Alpha Vantage's economic indicators endpoint. Generate automated economic outlook reports.

Cost advantages of pay-per-request

Direct provider plans and prices change over time. Through Locus, each available financial-data operation publishes its current per-request price, so an occasional or bursty workload pays for the calls it actually makes instead of taking on a separate provider subscription.

Combine financial data with LLM analysis

The real power of financial data through Locus is combining it with LLM reasoning. Your agent can pull raw data from Alpha Vantage or CoinGecko, pass it to a current Claude or GPT model for analysis, and generate human-readable insights — all paid from the same credit balance. Add code execution via Judge0 for quantitative modeling and Tavily for news context to build a complete financial research workflow.
