We're excited to announce Alpaca's News API, an extension of our Market Data API, providing developers with access to real-time and historical financial news through a user-friendly API. The limited-time beta version is currently available for free with rate limits determined by the current Market Data API subscription plans. News API allows users to retrieve news data dating back to 2015, query by various fields, and provides WebSocket real-time data streaming. It can be used for backtesting trading strategies, sentiment analysis, and engaging end-users with creative in-platform news displays. The API covers stock market and crypto news data, includes full-length articles, real-time headlines, and historical querying capabilities. Alpaca News API is a valuable tool for fintech developers to enhance their apps and provide users with high-quality financial news insights.
