## Quick answer

Paid plans are API Basic ($70 a month, or $624 a year), API Expert ($199, or $1,788 a year; included in the Elite plan) and API Max ($599, or $5,388 a year). API Basic has a 14-day free trial.

## Plans (US dollars, danelfin.com)

All plans cover US-listed stocks and ETFs and main European exchanges, daily AI Scores since 2017, JSON output. Yearly billing takes 25% off. Standard API plans are for internal use only; showing the data to third parties needs an API Enterprise licence.
