About GamestonkTerminal

OpenBB's Open Data Platform (ODP) is a toolset that helps data engineers integrate proprietary, licensed and public data sources into downstream applications such as AI copilots and research dashboards. Its "connect once, consume everywhere" architecture exposes the same consolidated data to several surfaces at once: Python environments for quants, OpenBB Workspace and Excel for analysts, MCP servers for AI agents, and REST APIs for other applications.

The package installs with pip install openbb in a Python 3.10 to 3.14 environment, and a separate command-line interface is available through pip install openbb-cli. Running openbb-api starts a local FastAPI server via Uvicorn at 127.0.0.1:6900, which can be connected to OpenBB Workspace, the enterprise UI hosted at pro.openbb.co, from the Workspace "Apps" tab. The project is distributed under the Apache License 2.0, and its disclaimer notes that trading financial instruments involves high risk, including the possible loss of some or all of the invested amount.
