I’m trying to build my own research / signal pipeline and I’m looking for something closer to Unusual Whales but without paying for a full subscription.
What I want is less dashboards and more raw data access.
Ideally:
Options / unusual flow / F&O activity
Insider trades
Politician disclosures
Hedge fund / 13F data
Dark pool / institutional signals
Near real-time or at least updated frequently
API / CSV / exportable data
Free or generous free tier
Right now I’m testing Finnhub and Tastytrade API but they don’t feel complete enough for this use case.Q
My goal is basically:
Raw data → Claude / custom filtering → synthesis → useful signals
Curious what people here actually use to assemble this stack. Open datasets, APIs, GitHub repos, hidden gems, anything.
