Norgate Data · FinOps Profile

Norgate Data Finops

FinOps view of Norgate Data spend. Cost is a flat, predictable data subscription rather than usage-metered API charges - there are no per-request, per-token or per-GB fees because access is a local library over the on-machine NDU database. Spend is driven by which markets you subscribe to (US, Australian, Canadian stocks, Futures, Forex), the history-depth tier chosen per stock market (Silver 10y, Gold 20y, Platinum to early 1990s, Diamond to 1950 for US), the subscription term (6 or 12 months, with a ~10 percent discount on annual), and any add-ons (US OTC securities, ASX derivatives). Secondary cost is the subscriber-owned Windows machine or VM required to run NDU. Because billing is a fixed recurring subscription, cost is fully predictable and easy to allocate.
