Which Products Are Included?
Most customers choose one of Intrinio's subscription plans rather than purchasing individual standard datasets.
The Individual Plan Data Package, Startup Plan Data Package, and Enterprise Plan Data Package all include the same core collection of products, including:
- EquitiesEdge (FMV Real-Time)
- OptionsEdge (FMV Real-Time)
- US Fundamentals
- US EOD & Historical Data for Stocks
- US EOD & Historical Data for Options
- 15-Min Delayed CBOE Data
- Tick-Level Market Data
The differences between plans are primarily licensing rights, support, and commercial usage—not the included core datasets. Enterprise customers can also add premium datasets and custom licensing options.
Not Sure Which Product You Need?
If you're building an application and aren't sure which APIs or datasets fit your use case, the easiest place to start is the Intrinio MCP Server.
The MCP server understands your current subscription and can recommend the datasets, API endpoints, and tools you already have access to, helping you build faster while avoiding unavailable resources.
