Notes

• Uses Seeking Alpha's internal v3 API (headless, no browser required)
• Anti-bot resilient: rotates to a fresh RESIDENTIAL IP per ticker on any PerimeterX block (up to 6 tries) — reliable on large batches
• Polite ~1s pacing between requests per ticker

💰 Pricing & how we compare

Pay-per-result (PPE): $19 / 1K snapshots ($0.019 each). You are billed per ticker-snapshot actually returned — plus the tiny apify-actor-start fee Apify waives for short runs. No subscription, no API key, no proxy fee on top.

Our edge: ONE dense snapshot per ticker (50+ fields) — price, market cap, PE (GAAP/non-GAAP/fwd), P/S, P/B, EV/EBITDA, EPS, dividend yields + payout + 5y growth, ROE, gross/net margin, revenue growth, 52-week range, 1y/YTD return, Wall-St analyst rating (1–5) + price target + buy/hold/sell, SA Quant ranks, SA Authors rating distribution, sector/industry — not one row per article. No rival returns this consolidated valuation snapshot.

Pricing examples (pay only for what you get, minus Apify's 20%):

Prices above are competitors' live Store prices at the time of writing; ours is set to sit just below the strongest comparable while returning richer, quality-scored data.
