SentiSense Python SDK

PyPI version Python versions License: MIT

Official Python SDK for the SentiSense market intelligence API.

Installation

pip install sentisense

Quick Start

from sentisense import SentiSenseClient

client = SentiSenseClient("your-api-key")

# Get a stock price
price = client.get_stock_price("AAPL")
print(price)

# Get multiple stock prices
prices = client.get_stock_prices(["AAPL", "MSFT", "GOOGL"])

# Check market status
status = client.get_market_status()
print(status)

# Get latest news for a stock
news = client.get_documents_by_ticker("TSLA", source="news", days=7)

# Search across news and social media
results = client.search_documents("AI earnings surprise")

# Get mention time series for a stock (v2 metrics API)
mentions = client.get_metrics("NVDA", metric_type="mentions")

# Get sentiment time series
sentiment = client.get_metrics("NVDA", metric_type="sentiment")

# Get mentions broken down by source
dist = client.get_metrics_distribution("NVDA", metric_type="mentions", dimension="source")

Authentication

All API requests require an API key. You can generate one from your Developer Console.

client = SentiSenseClient("your-api-key")

For full endpoint documentation, request/response schemas, and interactive examples, see the API Documentation.

Method Description
get_institutional_quarters() Available 13F reporting quarters
get_institutional_flows(report_date=None, limit=50) Fund flows for a quarter (omit report_date for the latest)

Paging the holder list

A widely held ticker returns thousands of rows: a megacap quarter is roughly 6,000 holders and 1.5 MB on the wire. Pass limit unless you really want the whole list. Omitting every paging argument sends the original unbounded request, so existing code keeps working.

Argument Values
limit Maximum rows to return. Must be >= 1; values above 1000 are capped server-side. Omit for the full list.
offset Row offset to start from, used with limit. Server default is 0.
sort_by "shares" (server default), "valueUsd", or "sharesChangePct".
sort_dir "desc" (server default) or "asc".
import os
from sentisense import SentiSenseClient

client = SentiSenseClient(os.environ["SENTISENSE_API_KEY"])

# Top 10 holders by position value, largest first
top = client.get_stock_holders(
    "AAPL", "2026-03-31", limit=10, sort_by="valueUsd", sort_dir="desc"
)
for holder in top.holders:
    print(holder["filerName"], holder["valueUsd"])

# Walk the list a page at a time
page = client.get_stock_holders("AAPL", "2026-03-31", limit=100, offset=100)
print(f"{page.returnedCount} rows from offset {page.offset} of {page.holderCount}")

Paged responses carry returnedCount and offset next to the holder rows, so you can walk the list without re-counting it yourself.

Analyst Ratings

The price target cone (mean, high, low, upside %) and consensus are free for everyone, full data via API: we give it away. Upgrade/downgrade feeds and forward EPS estimates are limited on free, unlimited on PRO.

Method Description
get_analyst_consensus(ticker) Price target band (mean, high, low), analyst count, upside %. Free for everyone, full data.
get_analyst_actions(ticker, lookback_days=90) Recent upgrade/downgrade actions. Free: 3 most recent. PRO: unlimited.
get_analyst_estimates(ticker) Forward EPS estimates and earnings surprise history. Free: 1 quarter. PRO: full history.
get_analyst_market_activity(lookback_days=30) Market-wide recent analyst actions across all tickers (PRO).

Company KPIs (PRO)

Method Description
get_company_kpis(ticker) Company-specific KPI time-series (product metrics, segment revenue). Free tier returns metadata only (empty kpis array); PRO returns full series.
list_kpi_coverage() List all tickers with curated KPI coverage (free, no quota cost)

Earnings

The earnings analysis report is the assembled version of a quarter: one object per fiscal period carrying the editorial headline, the KPI cards with year-over-year deltas, the guidance language as management phrased it, and a summary of the earnings call. Pair it with the recent-reporters feed to drive a post-earnings sweep.

Method Description
get_earnings_summaries(ticker, limit=None) Per-quarter earnings analysis report, newest first. FREE: the latest quarter, shaped (section titles and a guidance direction, no bodies). PRO: every hydrated quarter in full.
get_recent_earnings(days=None, limit=None) Which covered companies reported in a recent window, newest first. Full window on every key.
import os

from sentisense import SentiSenseClient

client = SentiSenseClient(os.environ["SENTISENSE_API_KEY"])

result = client.get_earnings_summaries("AAPL", limit=1)
if result.data:
    quarter = result.data[0]
    print(quarter.fiscalPeriod, quarter.reportDate)
    print(quarter.headline)
    for kpi in quarter.kpiHighlights:
        print(f"  {kpi.label}: {kpi.value} ({kpi.yoy or 'no YoY'})")

    if result.is_preview:
        # Free key: section titles stand in for the bodies.
        print("Summary covers:", ", ".join(quarter.summaryTopics))
    else:
        print(quarter.summaryMd)

ETFs (beta)

Composition data is public; the holdings-weighted aggregate views follow the same PRO-with-preview pattern as Analyst/Insider. Aggregates synthesize fund-level views from each constituent's per-stock data (analyst coverage, insider trades, sentiment), weighted by allocation. Every aggregate response carries a coverage block so you see exactly how much of the fund's AUM the underlying data covered.

Method Description
list_etfs() Every ETF tracked by SentiSense. Returns ticker, fund name, issuer, tracked index, asset class.
get_etf_holdings(ticker) Full composition: per-holding weights and freshness metadata.
get_etf_analyst_aggregate(ticker) Holdings-weighted analyst consensus (weighted upside, distribution). Free: headline + coverage. PRO: + topContributors.
get_etf_insider_aggregate(ticker, lookback_days=30) Holdings-weighted Form 4 net flow over a configurable window. Free: headline + buy/sell split. PRO: + topContributors.
get_etf_sentiment_aggregate(ticker) Two SentiSense readings side-by-side: constituent-weighted and direct (mentions of the fund itself).

Error Handling

The SDK raises typed exceptions for API errors:

from sentisense import SentiSenseClient, AuthenticationError, RateLimitError

client = SentiSenseClient("your-api-key")

try:
    price = client.get_stock_price("AAPL")
except AuthenticationError:
    print("Invalid or missing API key")
except RateLimitError:
    print("Rate limit exceeded, try again later")
Exception HTTP Status Description
AuthenticationError 401, 403 Invalid or missing API key
NotFoundError 404 Resource not found
RateLimitError 429 Rate limit exceeded
DeepHistoryUnavailable 202 Deep chart history (10Y, MAX) is still being assembled; retry shortly
APIError Other 4xx/5xx General API error

All exceptions inherit from SentiSenseError and include .status_code, .message, and .response attributes.

Not yet in the Python SDK

A few endpoints available in the Node SDK are intentionally not yet exposed here (low-traffic / discovery-convenience surfaces). Call them directly over HTTP if you need them: /api/v1/stocks/images, /api/v1/stocks/descriptions, /api/v1/stocks/popular, /api/v1/documents/stories/{clusterId} (single-story detail), and the metrics breakdown endpoint.
