Data API for developers

Our own signals and verdicts as JSON: typed responses and fixed schemas.

What comes out of here

We watch stocks with our own scanners and our own editorial desk. This interface hands out what that produces: our findings — not the raw data they rest on.

Five areas

  • Early-warning signals — four scanners report upcoming catalysts, reported insider buying, unusual trading activity and our own exit warnings. Every signal carries our assessment and, once the observation window has closed, the measured outcome as a percentage.
  • Conference call verdicts — we read the public transcripts of the last two to three years and record what management promised against what it delivered. The Q&A counts for more than the prepared statement.
  • Superinvestors — the Form 13F filings with the SEC, loaded by us, plus our own five-year reconstruction of the reported portfolio against the S&P 500.
  • Congressional trades — the securities transactions of the US Congress from their STOCK Act disclosures, with the official amount range, trade date and disclosure date.
  • Hype radar — which symbols currently stand out in retail investor forums. Attention is explicitly not an assessment.

AI-native

Every response is typed and carries the same envelope. Field names and enum values are English and identical on both brands, the ordering is deterministic — an agent learns the schema once, not twice.

Three steps

  1. 1 Request a key — the form at the end of this page returns it right away.
  2. 2 Send the key as a header: X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY or Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY.
  3. 3 Call GET /api/v1/status. A 200 means everything is in place.

The envelope of every response

Successful responses carry data and meta. meta always states how old the answer is (as_of), where it comes from (source), which brand answered (brand) and where these docs live (docs). Paginated lists add page, per_page and total.

{
    "data": [],
    "meta": {
        "as_of": "2026-07-30T06:12:44+00:00",
        "source": "own-analysis",
        "brand": "minnowstreet",
        "docs": "https://tickerguard.com/developers"
    }
}

Endpoints

All data endpoints are GET and live under /api/v1. The paths are the same on both brands; only the text content in the responses is localised.

Without an entry a list returns 25 records per page; a larger limit is capped at 100 rather than rejected. meta.total says how much lies behind it.

GET /api/v1/status

Self-description of your access: plan, requests so far, quota. The first place to look when setting up — a 200 means key and header are right.

Parameters

none

Example request

curl -H "X-Api-Key: $API_KEY" \

Shortened. The field names are real, the values are made up.

GET /api/v1/signals

The newest early-warning signals from all four scanners, newest first. pattern narrows the list to one scanner, since to signals from a given day onwards.

GET /api/v1/signals/{ticker}

Every signal we have recorded for one symbol, newest first. A symbol we do not hold answers with a 404 — a statement about our coverage, not about the company.

Our verdicts on the earnings calls, ordered by symbol. rating narrows the list to one level.

Parameters

  • rating positive | neutral | flagged
  • limit integer, 1–100
  • page integer, ≥ 1

Example request

curl -H "X-Api-Key: $API_KEY" \

GET /api/v1/superinvestors/{slug}

One investor's reported positions for a single quarter, largest first, each with the change against the previous quarter. period selects an earlier quarter; a 13F is always a snapshot, never a live portfolio.

GET /api/v1/hype

Two rankings in one response: our own Reddit scanner and, where this instance carries them, the wallstreet-online lists. This endpoint does not paginate — limit caps both lists.

Errors

Errors carry an error object with code and message instead of data. The HTTP status says the same thing again.

{
    "error": {
        "code": "invalid_parameter",
        "message": "Unknown value for \"pattern\". Allowed: catalyst, insider, volume, exit."
    }
}
  • 401 Key missing, unknown or revoked. All three cases answer identically on purpose.
  • 404 We hold nothing for this symbol or identifier — or the path you asked for does not exist.
  • 405 The path exists, but not with this HTTP method. The right one is in the Allow header.
  • 422 A parameter carries a value that does not exist, or a list where a single value belongs.
  • 429 Quota exhausted: 60 requests per minute and key.
  • 500 Something went wrong on our side. Your request was fine; a second attempt is worth it.

Beta, quota and licence

  • The beta is free.
  • 60 requests per minute and key. Above that the interface answers with a 429 rather than throttling.
  • What is delivered is exclusively our own analysis and data we loaded ourselves from official sources — SEC filings and STOCK Act disclosures. Raw market prices from third-party vendors are not included; that is why there are percentages here, but no prices.
  • If you publish the data, please name TickerGuard as the source. It is not mandatory, but it is appreciated.
  • Paid plans with more volume are planned but not live yet. If you need them, tick the box below — we will get in touch before anything changes.

Request a key

An email address is enough. The key appears on this page right away — exactly once.

We store the address only to tie it to your access and to inform you about changes.
