Analyst recommendation trend for a US-listed company — the number of analysts rating it strong buy, buy, hold, sell, and strong sell, snapshotted per month (newest first). Pass ticker. Use it to see the consensus and how sentiment is shifting over time. Data by Finnhub.
/api/stocks/recommendationsPAYMENT-SIGNATURE.The recommendations API is a pay-per-call stocks endpoint built for AI agents and autonomous software. Analyst recommendation trend for a US-listed company — the number of analysts rating it strong buy, buy, hold, sell, and strong sell, snapshotted per month (newest first).
There is no signup and no API key. An agent (or any HTTP client) hits the endpoint, receives an x402 "402 Payment Required" challenge, signs a sub-cent USDC payment on Base or Solana, and retries — the data comes back on the paid request. That makes it a drop-in recommendations data source for an agent tool-use loop, an MCP host, or a backend that needs stocks data on demand without onboarding to yet another vendor portal.
