Twelve Data · FinOps Profile

Twelvedata Finops

FinOps view of Twelve Data spend. Twelve Data bills a fixed monthly subscription per plan (Basic free, Grow, Pro, Ultra) plus Enterprise agreements. Consumption is governed by a credit system: each REST endpoint has a data weight in API credits with a per-minute quota that resets each minute, and the WebSocket stream consumes 1 credit per subscribed symbol from a separate WebSocket credit pool. Cost is therefore driven by plan selection and by staying within the plan's credit ceilings rather than by pure per-call metering.
