Congrats on the launch! How do you define "Commercial use" and it's not supported?
Crest
@bogomep We define commercial use as in-app or redistribution. We do support these but need to understand how you plan to use the market data before proceeding. You can find more information about what commercial use might include on our website: https://alpaca.markets/data Thank you for your support and for asking a great question! 💪

@bogomep This means in-app use case. We actually have such pricing plan. Pls let us know at support@alpaca.markets

I'd be curious to hear what this adds to the EDGAR feed? Might have a commercial use case, at least in the future.

Awesome! @nazim_m check this out! Which data license system are you bound by? What's the difference between you and players like Polygon.io and IEX? Congrats on the launch btw ;)
