Is MarketNewsAPI a good alternative to Tiingo?

Choose MarketNewsAPI if the thing you are building is the news, and you want it pushed in real time without a daily request cap. Choose Tiingo if you want EOD prices, IEX quotes, and a capped news API from one cheap vendor. Pro is $15 a month, or $162 a year, for real-time REST, WebSocket, and MCP.

How does Tiingo compare on price and delivery?

Tiingo entry price: Power $30/mo ($300/yr) raises the request caps. Free tier: Starter $0, including a news API, with tight caps (on the order of 50 requests/hour and 1,000/day). MarketNewsAPI Pro: $15/mo Pro ($13.50/mo annual). 7-day trial, card required. Free plan: 100 requests/day, 15-min delay, 1 year of history. Their WebSocket: Not published as a news WebSocket.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is MarketNewsAPI a good alternative to Tiingo?
Yes, for US stock news at a flat price. Pro is $15 a month, or $162 a year ($13.50 a month), with real-time REST, WebSocket, and MCP. A 7-day trial requires a card. Tiingo is the better pick if you want EOD prices, IEX quotes, and a capped news API from one cheap vendor. MarketNewsAPI is the better pick if the thing you are building is the news, and you want it pushed in real time without a daily request cap. Confirm Tiingo's current plan on their site before you switch.
How much does Tiingo cost compared with MarketNewsAPI?
Tiingo lists Power $30/mo ($300/yr) raises the request caps. MarketNewsAPI Pro is $15/mo Pro ($13.50/mo annual). 7-day trial, card required. Free tiers differ too: Tiingo offers Starter $0, including a news API, with tight caps (on the order of 50 requests/hour and 1,000/day). MarketNewsAPI Free is 100 requests/day, 15-min delay, 1 year of history. Prices here were checked on 2026-10-07 and can change, so read both pricing pages before you buy. MarketNewsAPI does not charge overage on Pro.
Does Tiingo have a WebSocket news stream?
Not published as a news WebSocket. MarketNewsAPI includes a real-time WebSocket on Pro at $15 a month, with ticker, category, type, keyword, and source channels, and up to 3 connections. The 7-day trial includes that stream. Free does not. If you only need to poll, both REST APIs can sit side by side while you compare the same tickers.
How hard is it to switch from Tiingo to MarketNewsAPI?
Usually an afternoon. Replace the base URL and the auth header, then map title, url, published time, and tickers onto the MarketNewsAPI article. Add the WebSocket if you want push instead of polling. The 7-day trial lets you run both feeds on the same symbols first. A card is required. Keep Tiingo connected until the fields you need are there.
How far back does Tiingo news history go?
Tiingo: Long EOD price history on the free tier; news history is separate from that price archive. MarketNewsAPI paid plans, including the 7-day trial, search the full archive of stock news and press releases. Free is the last year. Those history cells were checked on 2026-10-07. Confirm the other archive on their site before you switch, because plan names change.
Does Tiingo add an AI summary to each article?
Tiingo: Not listed. MarketNewsAPI adds a short AI summary and named entities on new articles, plus tickers, timestamps, and a source URL. Press releases also include full text. A summary restates the story. It is not a rating or a trade.
