Choosing the Right Plan

Whether you're exploring financial data for personal research, building a commercial application, or deploying data across an enterprise, Intrinio offers a plan designed to match your needs. This guide will help you choose the right plan based on how you plan to use the data—not just the data itself.

At a Glance

Individual Plan

The Individual plan is ideal if you're using financial data for your own work.

Choose this plan if you are:

• Learning the Intrinio API
• Conducting investment research
• Building personal projects
• Developing internal tools for your own use
• Evaluating the platform before launching a business

Includes

• One user
• Personal and internal use
• API access to the included datasets
• Self-service signup
• 14-day free trial
• API key available within minutes

Not Permitted

The Individual plan does not allow:

• Commercial products
• Customer-facing applications
• Data redistribution
• Displaying data to external users
• Reselling or exporting data

If your application will be used by customers or employees of a business, the Startup plan is typically the better fit.

Startup Plan

The Startup plan is designed for companies building commercial software.

Choose this plan if you are:

• Launching a fintech application
• Building SaaS software
• Creating dashboards for customers
• Displaying financial data inside your application
• Operating a commercial business

Includes

• Commercial use rights
• Customer-facing display rights
• The same included data package as the Individual plan
• Self-service signup
• 14-day free trial
• API key available within minutes

Not permitted

The Startup plan does not allow:

• Reselling raw market data
• Redistributing raw datasets outside your application
• Custom licensing arrangements

If your requirements stay within the included datasets and standard commercial licensing, Startup is the fastest path to production.

Enterprise Plan

Enterprise is intended for organizations whose requirements extend beyond the standard self-service plans.

Enterprise may be appropriate if you need:

• Business-wide licensing
• Premium or specialty datasets
• Dedicated support
• Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
• Higher API rate limits
• Procurement or compliance reviews
• Customized implementations

Enterprise engagements are handled through a consultation to ensure the correct datasets and licensing are selected.

Enterprise Custom

Some organizations require capabilities beyond the standard Enterprise offering.

Enterprise Custom may be appropriate if you need:

• Raw exchange-sourced real-time market data
• Exchange approvals
• White-label licensing
• Data redistribution or resale
• Custom licensing terms
• Specialty or premium datasets
• Custom rate limits
• Large-scale architecture planning

These requirements typically involve exchange rules, custom contracts, or specialized licensing and are reviewed during a consultation.

Which Plan Should You Choose?

Choose Individual if:

• You are the only user.
• Your work is personal or internal.
• You are not building a commercial product.

Choose Startup if:

• You are building a business.
• Customers will use your application.
• You need commercial display rights.
• The included datasets meet your launch requirements.

Choose Enterprise if:

• Your organization needs broader licensing.
• You require premium datasets or dedicated support.
• Your procurement or compliance process requires a sales engagement.

Choose Enterprise Custom if:

• You need raw exchange data.
• You plan to redistribute or resell data.
• You require custom licensing or exchange approvals.

Start with Self-Service

For most developers, startups, and growing businesses, the Individual and Startup plans provide everything needed to begin building immediately.

Both plans include:

• A 14-day free trial
• Instant API key provisioning
• Access to the included financial datasets
• Self-service account management
• Access to Intrinio's Financial Data MCP Server for AI-assisted development guidance

If your requirements grow over time, upgrading to Enterprise is straightforward.

Still Not Sure?

If you're uncertain which plan best fits your project, ask yourself these questions:

1. Is this for personal use or a commercial business?
2. Will anyone outside my organization see the data?
3. Do I need premium datasets or raw exchange data?
4. Do I need custom licensing or enterprise support?

If the answer to the first two questions points toward a standard use case, the Individual or Startup plan is usually the right place to begin. If your project requires specialized licensing, premium data, or enterprise services, our team can help determine the best Enterprise solution.
