Could you build this?

Partial Wrapping financial data into an agent-friendly REST/MCP API is straightforward, but licensing, ingesting, cleaning, and hosting real-time and 30-year historical market data for tens of thousands of equities requires expensive data feeds and heavy database engineering.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires high-throughput time-series databases (e.g., ClickHouse, TimescaleDB), pipelines for processing SEC EDGAR XBRL filings into normalized financial statements, and direct market data exchange feeds (SIP, OPRA) or institutional redistribution agreements. The primary barriers are capital costs for enterprise market data licenses and the data-engineering effort required to adjust for splits, dividends, restatements, and ticker changes across 27,000+ instruments.
