Tickertape — the human research desk
The cleanest research dashboard for end users on Indian markets — mobile-first, opinionated, fast.
What it's great at. Tickertape is the research UI we send humans to. Mobile + web, MMI (Market Mood Index),
scorecards, factor breakdowns, click-through screener, watchlists. The product taste is excellent and the data depth is real
— we even cite Tickertape as one of Genka's facts sources for fund TER/AUM (
facts_source: tickertape on
/mf/{slug}). No public API or MCP.
Compose with Genka when the same data needs to be addressable from agent code.

What Tickertape is great at
- Consumer dashboard. Web + mobile. Charts, scorecards, holdings tracker, watchlists.
- Screener. Click-through filter UI across stocks and mutual funds.
- MMI & widgets. Market Mood Index, deal mood, forecast bars, sentiment.
- Pro tier. Subscription unlocks deeper screener / portfolio features for end users.
- API status. No public developer API. No MCP. Closed surface.
- What it does not ship. Programmatic access, agent integration, raw XBRL filings, concall transcripts as a corpus.
Where Genka complements Tickertape
- JSON API + MCP. Same data, but addressable from code with
X-API-Keyauth, frozen IDs, snapshot cache semantics. - Quarterly XBRL fundamentals.
/companies/{symbol}/ratios— FY17 onward, primary-source NSE filings, audit URL per number. - Concall corpus. ~23,000 transcripts; BM25 search;
POST /concalls/answerfor grounded LLM Q&A with citations. - MF screener as API. 4,700 funds;
mf_screener?period=3y&sharpe_absolute_gte=0.9. - 30y bhavcopy. Daily prices back to 1995-01-02; corp-action-adjusted returns via
/prices/{symbol}/latest.
Compose them
Build a UI for users on top of Tickertape (or your own front end), and run the agent loop on Genka:
# Pattern A: Send humans to Tickertape, give your agent Genka. # Your app's "View on Tickertape" link sends users to a chart; # your agent calls Genka for the underlying numbers. # Pattern B: Watch a Genka saved query, alert the user. POST /v1/saved-queries { "name": "PPFAS Sharpe drops", "endpoint": "/v1/mf/ppfas-parag-parikh-flexi-cap/metrics", "webhook_url": "https://your.app/genka-hook", "trigger": { "path": "sharpe_absolute", "op": "lt", "value": 1.0 } } # When fired, deep-link the user into Tickertape for the visual.
Note on data lineage
Genka uses Tickertape as one of its facts_source values for fund TER, AUM, exit load and similar fund metadata
(the SEBI-mandated AMC factsheets remain the legal system of record). Each fund response carries facts_source
and facts_updated_on so you can audit. We aren't a Tickertape competitor on the consumer surface; we're an
API for code that Tickertape doesn't ship.

Working around Tickertape — what's available
- There is no public API. Tickertape is a consumer product. Their MMI, scorecards, and screener results are not available programmatically. If you need the same data in code, you're either scraping (which their ToS forbids) or using a primary source like NSE/SEBI/AMFI directly.
- Their methodology is documented. Tickertape publishes notes on how they compute scorecards, MMI, and other derived metrics. Useful reference reading even if you reimplement against primary sources.
- Pro tier unlocks more screens. If you're a human user, Pro gets you deeper portfolio analytics, custom screen sharing, and more historical depth. As a developer, this doesn't change the API picture (still none).
- Where Genka uses them. We attribute Tickertape per-row in
meta.sources[]for fund TER/AUM. AMC factsheets remain the legal system of record; Tickertape is one of several normalised mirrors we cross-validate against.
