Finance Research

View as MarkdownOpen in Claude
The Finance Research API is purpose-built for financial questions. Like the Research API, it runs multiple searches, reads through sources, and synthesizes everything into a thorough, well-cited answer — but its retrieval index is optimized for financial data: earnings reports, SEC filings, analyst coverage, market data, and financial news. Use it when you need credible, sourced answers to financial questions: company fundamentals, market trends, competitive analysis, earnings summaries, or macroeconomic research.

Controls how much time and effort the Finance Research API spends on your question. Higher effort levels run more searches and dig deeper into sources, at the cost of a longer response time. Available levels: - `deep`: The default. Spends more time researching and cross-referencing sources. Good for most financial questions, including multi-company comparisons, earnings analysis, and regulatory research. - `exhaustive`: The most thorough option. Explores the topic as fully as possible, best suited for complex financial research tasks where you want the highest quality result.
