RealMarketAPI vs Finage

Real Market API vs Finage — MCP Server, Telegram Bot, and cleaner pricing

Finage covers REST and WebSocket for stocks, forex, and crypto — similar to Real Market API. The gaps: no MCP Server for AI agents, no Telegram Bot, thinner Metals and Commodities coverage, and a pricing model that adds cost per asset class bundle.

Why switch

Why developers switch from Finage

  • MCP Server for AI agents — Finage has none

    Finage has no Model Context Protocol endpoint. Real Market API's native MCP Server exposes 33 quota-free tools — prices, OHLC candles, volatility metrics, and technical indicators — callable directly from Claude, GPT-4o, or any MCP-compatible agent.

  • Telegram Bot on every plan — Finage has none

    Finage offers no Telegram integration. Real Market API's Telegram Bot is available on all plans (including free): send `/price XAUUSD` and get a live response, or configure candle-close alerts for any symbol without code.

  • Metals and Commodities fully covered

    Finage's metals and commodity endpoints are thin — Gold and Silver are accessible but Oil, Platinum, Copper, and Natural Gas are unreliable or absent. Real Market API includes XAUUSD, XAGUSD, XPTUSD, XCUUSD, WTI, Brent, and XNGUSD on all paid plans.

  • One transparent pricing table

    Finage's pricing separates stocks, forex, and crypto into different bundles, making total cost difficult to estimate. Real Market API shows one table — every asset class, every feature, every overage rate — on a single public pricing page.
