The Tiingo Mission

Our Commitment to the Community

Improving Accessibility

Accessibility means we change the question from "how much can we get and get away with it?" to "how much can we give and get away with it?" By asking ourselves this question, we work to constantly expand and improve datasets, going beyond standard offerings, and keeping costs affordable for the individual. Read the section below to find out why accessibility matters to us.

Improving Quality

Financial education and analytics can transform the financial futures of many if harnessed in the correct ways. But the precursor to analytics is data quality. Our team has made proprietary error checking frameworks to help detect and fix financial data errors. This sometimes means spending hours pouring over documentation to ensure a spin-off was caclulated correctly. If you notice a data error, please report it to us at support@tiingo.com so we can further improve the data for all.

Improving Education

Tools and data are wonderful, but we want to use our experience as former industry professionals to teach newcomers about how to utilize data and tools to better their financial lives. We hope through our chats and other discussions, the more knowledgeable members of our community will uphold this ethos and help newcomers navigate the world of finance.

Love

Love in Business

Tiingo was formed with the mission that Love is the ideal way to conduct ourselves and our businesses.

We believe that money itself does not lead to fulfillment, but it helps facilitate creation, and creation in all sorts of fields and concepts (creating families, businesses, initiatives, projects, jobs) leads to beautiful feeling of fulfillment. Therefore those who are in the business of managing money or teaching about money have a monk-like responsibility to this world.

We at Tiingo uphold that we have a responsibility to our community and this world at large to teach others about financial and trading education and also make tools accessible, so people may have more resources to create a better reality for themselves and others.

Why Accessibility Matters

While we can make financial education available, it does not solve the problem of expensive financial tools and data. By making tools and data accessible, we hope to encourage positive financial outcomes so you may have the resources to better your financial selves and have freedom to pursue the things you love.

Beyond financial outcomes, the reason we care so much about data in the financial literacy equation is that we've seen over finance tends to recruit math and science Ph.Ds under the idea that the scientific mindset and sometimes mathematical sophistication can result in profitable strategies.

But as former scientists, we can't help but wonder - what if financial data could lead to the pioneering of new scientific and mathematical methods? After all, financial data is a fantastic test data set as you can instantly know the results of whether your scientific methods works out-of-sample. So our goal in expanding financial data access is more than just the financial well-being of our users, but also to encourage scientific and technological innovation in data and the computational sciences.
