How to connect your Claude agents to institutional-level financial market data in <60 seconds. Most people ask Claude about stocks and get answers pulled from stale training data or a random Yahoo Finance scrape. I found a way to fix that entirely (step-by-step): Step 1. Connect the FMP connector Go into Claude → Connectors → Add connector → Browse connectors, then search for "FMP." Follow the on-screen steps to sign in and verify. With FMP, you get 250 free calls a day, and no API key is required. If you want to run multiple automated flows, the Starter plan at $19/month is the sweet spot (what I personally use). Step 2. What FMP does Once connected, Claude has access to: → Live quotes and 30+ years of price history → Fundamentals and full financial statements → SEC filings and earnings transcripts → Analyst estimates and price targets → Insider and congressional trades → Screeners, technicals, and calendars → ETF holdings → All markets, including crypto and forex Step 3. Building research flows Once FMP is connected, you can build anything. Think: Personal financial research dashboards, portfolio trackers, price alert systems, etc. Genuinely a game-changer.(Miles Deutscher)
