Alphacast is a financial data analytics platform that lets you collect and distribute economic and financial data at scale. Whether you are pulling macro indicators from the Federal Reserve or uploading your own proprietary datasets, Alphacast gives you a single API to manage the full data lifecycle — from ingestion through to download.

​
What you can do with Alphacast

With the Alphacast API you can:
  • Manage datasets — create, update, and delete datasets within organized repositories
  • Connect to 30+ external data providers — including FRED, BLS, World Bank, OECD, IMF, BIS, ECB, Eurostat, and central banks across Latin America, Europe, and Asia. Browse the live catalog at alphacast.io/explore/apis.
  • Download data in multiple formats — export any dataset as CSV, JSON, XLSX, or TSV
All API requests are authenticated with an API key that you generate from your account settings at alphacast.io. Requests can be authenticated via HTTP Basic Auth or a query parameter — both approaches are covered in the authentication guide. The base URL for all API requests is https://api.alphacast.io.
