2026-07-26The official website github.com/HKUDS/Vibe-Trading README directly uses WebFetch successfully. Correction: The truly free data sources without API keys are 18 (including Eastmoney, Sina, Stooq, Yahoo, etc.), and Finnhub, Alpha Vantage, Tiingo, FMP require a free API key, the original record of 22 free data sources without API keys was inaccurate, and free_limit has been corrected. Additionally, it was discovered that QVeris paid add-ons can unlock 63+ data sources, which was not previously recorded. The licensing and open-source free model remain unchanged.

What Sets Us Apart
The free version is already quite comprehensive (18 data sources + 452 pre-built factors), and the advanced QVeris is mainly used by professional traders who need to cover more niche markets or high-frequency data. The official website does not provide public pricing, and you should contact the HKUDS team directly.
Japanese-style AI search, excellent localization for Traditional Chinese, and generous free quota
FreeThe free version has unlimited basic search, and approximately 5 Pro searches per day (200 points per day, resets at midnight), as well as a daily quota of 3 file analyses (confirmed on the official website on 2026-07-30); the paid Pro plan, after using up 15,000 points per period, can still enjoy up to 300 Pro searches per day (confirmed on 2026-07-26: the latest blog post on the official website states 300 times, while the FAQ page states 100 times, which is outdated and not updated).
A godsend for students and researchers to feed data and generate summaries/podcasts
FreeThe free version is sufficient and permanently free, with limits on the number of sources or notebooks, and does not require subscription or credit card.
