FinBrain Python SDK 

PyPI version CI License

Official Python client for the FinBrain API.
Fetch deep-learning price predictions, sentiment scores, insider trades, LinkedIn metrics, options data and more — with a single import.

Python ≥ 3.9 • requests & pandas • asyncio optional.


✨ Features

  • One-line auth (FinBrainClient(api_key="…"))
  • Complete endpoint coverage (predictions, sentiments, options, insider, etc.)
  • Transparent retries & custom error hierarchy (FinBrainError)
  • Async parity with finbrain.aio (httpx)
  • CLI (finbrain markets, finbrain predict AAPL)
  • Auto-version from Git tags (setuptools-scm)
  • MIT-licensed, fully unit-tested

🚀 Quick start

Install the SDK:

pip install finbrain-python

Create a client and fetch data:

from finbrain import FinBrainClient

fb = FinBrainClient(api_key="YOUR_KEY")        # create once, reuse below

# ---------- availability ----------
fb.available.markets()                         # list markets
fb.available.tickers("daily", as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- app ratings ----------
fb.app_ratings.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                      date_from="2025-01-01",
                      date_to="2025-05-31",
                      as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- analyst ratings ----------
fb.analyst_ratings.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                          date_from="2025-01-01",
                          date_to="2025-05-31",
                          as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- house trades ----------
fb.house_trades.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                       date_from="2025-01-01",
                       date_to="2025-05-31",
                       as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- insider transactions ----------
fb.insider_transactions.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN", as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- LinkedIn metrics ----------
fb.linkedin_data.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                        date_from="2025-01-01",
                        date_to="2025-05-31",
                        as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- options put/call ----------
fb.options.put_call("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                    date_from="2025-01-01",
                    date_to="2025-05-31",
                    as_dataframe=True)

# ---------- price predictions ----------
fb.predictions.market("S&P 500", as_dataframe=True)   # all tickers in market
fb.predictions.ticker("AMZN", as_dataframe=True)      # single ticker

# ---------- news sentiment ----------
fb.sentiments.ticker("S&P 500", "AMZN",
                     date_from="2025-01-01",
                     date_to="2025-05-31",
                     as_dataframe=True)

🔑 Authentication

To call the API you need an API key, obtained by purchasing a FinBrain API subscription.
(The Terminal-only subscription does not include an API key.)

  1. Subscribe at https://www.finbrain.tech → FinBrain API.
  2. Copy the key from your dashboard.
  3. Pass it once when you create the client:
from finbrain import FinBrainClient
fb = FinBrainClient(api_key="YOUR_KEY")

Async(currently under development)

import asyncio, os
from finbrain.aio import FinBrainAsyncClient async
def  main():
	async  with FinBrainAsyncClient(api_key=os.getenv("FINBRAIN_API_KEY")) as fb:
        data = await fb.sentiments.ticker("sp500", "AMZN")
        print(list(data["sentimentAnalysis"].items())[:3])

asyncio.run(main())` 

CLI(currently under development)

export FINBRAIN_API_KEY=your_key
finbrain markets
finbrain predict AAPL --type daily
