Question 1

What markets are supported?

Accepted Answer

Scanr currently supports all US markets and exchanges, including all stocks registered on the NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, CBOE, and more. Our Super Pro plan also supports OTCs and ETFs.

Question 2

Does the scanner update results in real-time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on Super and Super Pro plans, the scanner refreshes results in near real-time. Our free Starter plan refreshes in batches every 15 minutes.

Question 3

Does the scanner support nested groups and complex conditions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the scanner supports nested groups and complex conditions. All indicators can be compared against other arbitrary indicators, for example, 'RSI > 50 and SMA(50) > SMA(200)'.

Question 4

What timeframes are supported?

Accepted Answer

We support all major timeframes from 1 minute to 1 month. The free Starter plan only supports 1 day scanning.

Question 5

How many scanner indicators are available?

Accepted Answer

Scanr currently supports 120+ technical filters, and over 200 fundamental filters in the Super and Super Pro plans.

Question 6

Do you offer a programmatic API?

Accepted Answer

Yes — our REST API and MCP server are live. See our API pricing for tiers and rate limits, or browse the full API reference at api-docs.scanr.ai.

Question 7

Is there a mobile app?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Scanr.ai has a mobile app so you can scan and track the market on the go. Learn more on our mobile app page.

Question 8

Is API pricing separate from my Scanr UI plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes. API access is a standalone add-on. You can be on the free Starter UI plan and still subscribe to any API tier, or be on Super Pro and stay on the free Starter API tier. The two products are billed independently and have their own rate limits.

Question 9

Do API limits stack with my UI plan's limits?

Accepted Answer

No. API requests made with an API token (and through the MCP server) are metered against your API tier's limits — not your UI plan's per-session limits. They are completely separate buckets.

Question 10

What's included in the MCP server access?

Accepted Answer

Every API tier includes access to our MCP server with the same tools — scanning, natural-language scan, security search, market status, news, and trending stocks. AI tools on MCP are metered against your daily API-tier AI quota, shared with the REST AI scan endpoints. See the MCP docs for setup.

Question 11

Can I upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can change your API tier or cancel at any time from your account billing portal. Upgrades take effect immediately with a prorated charge; downgrades and cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period.

Question 12

What happens if I hit a rate limit?

Accepted Answer

API responses include standard rate-limit headers so you can back off gracefully. If you exceed the limit, you'll receive a 429 response. AI-specific endpoints have their own daily quota (separate from the general request limits) because LLM calls are more expensive to serve.

Question 13

Do you offer custom or enterprise pricing?

Accepted Answer

Yes — if the Business tier's limits aren't enough or you need custom terms, get in touch at contact@bagsbydata.com.

Question 14

Where can I find the API documentation?

Accepted Answer

Full reference docs are available at api-docs.scanr.ai. You can mint API tokens from your account settings.
