Benzinga is a Detroit-based financial media and market data company (founded 2010, acquired by Beringer Capital in 2021) that licenses its newsroom and data products through a developer-first API platform at docs.benzinga.com. Products span real-time financial news (Newsfeed, Press Releases, Why Is It Moving), quantified news sentiment, a deep corporate-events Calendar (earnings, dividends, ratings, IPOs, splits, economics, FDA, M&A, government and insider trades), delayed quotes, historical OHLCV bars, fundamentals, logos, ticker trends, and earnings-call transcripts. Delivery is REST over https://api.benzinga.com with API-key auth, plus WebSocket streams, a TCP streaming service (tcp-v1.benzinga.io:11337), and a data webhook engine. OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specs are published in the public Benzinga/benzinga-docs GitHub repo. Access is licensing-led with a developer console registration flow; no public pricing page.
