Real-time and historical market data feeds
Consolidated pricing, fundamentals, and reference data across asset classes from one or multiple vendors.
Market data analysis lives or dies on latency, data quality, and the trust your analysts and traders place in every number on screen, so we treat throughput and accuracy as architecture decisions, not afterthoughts. A model built on bad data doesn’t fail loudly, it fails quietly, producing a confident-looking forecast nobody questions until it’s wrong. Every system we build validates data at ingestion and logs every calculation and data source in a complete audit trail from day one.
Before writing code, we map your existing data feeds, analytics libraries, and distribution channels (desktop, Excel, APIs), so integration complexity and licensing constraints from data vendors surface at the start, not mid-project.
We build lean market data modules that plug into a data vendor feed and scale as your user base and asset coverage grow, without committing to enterprise infrastructure before you need it.
We replace spreadsheet-based analysis with automated data pipelines, visualization, and forecasting that fit how your analysts already work, cutting the manual export-and-reformat cycle that eats into research time.
We handle multi-asset, multi-vendor market data programs: high-volume feeds, complex analytics libraries, and integration with existing trading and portfolio systems, where a data quality issue at scale can affect dozens of downstream models at once.
A forecast is only as good as the data feeding it, and most data quality problems are invisible until a trade or a report goes wrong. Here’s where that risk usually hides.
We’ll discuss your business goals, budget, and timeline. During this initial call, we’ll determine if you need end-to-end software outsourcing or one of our other engagement models.
We’ll craft a plan outlining our approach, based on your requirements and the chosen engagement model. We’ll also assemble a team of specialists with experience in financial software and market data analytics systems.
Our software engineers will get to work. Throughout the development process, we will track metrics and keep you informed about our progress, so you stay up to date.

Are per-seat data terminal licenses becoming a significant cost as your team grows?
Do you need AI-based capabilities such as trend forecasting, sentiment analysis, or anomaly detection?
Have you already tried an off-the-shelf market data platform that didn’t cover your workflows?
Do you plan to keep expanding your asset coverage or user base over the next 2–3 years?
Thank you! We will be in touch soon.
In Svitla’s projects, we consistently aim to address the key factors that drive maximum value and cost-effectiveness in market data analysis software:
A custom platform lets you license only the data feeds you need and avoid paying for terminal seats your team doesn’t fully use.
Automated data pipelines and visualization let analysts move from data to insight faster than manual spreadsheet workflows.
AI-supported models trained on your specific asset coverage can outperform generic, one-size-fits-all analytics.
Automated screening and alerting catch threshold breaches and emerging trends analysts might otherwise miss.
A documented data and calculation trail supports internal review and regulatory scrutiny of investment decisions.
A platform built for your workflows scales with headcount without a proportional rise in per-seat licensing costs.
Developing market data analysis software is a complex process that includes business analysis, solution architecture and design, development, testing, integration, and comprehensive user training. At Svitla, the implementation of market data analysis systems follows these key stages:
Analyze business objectives, current research workflows, and gather detailed requirements for the system.
Define the optimal feature set, system architecture, and technology stack tailored to your asset coverage and data volumes.
Outline the project scope, deliverables, timeline, budget, and team structure.
Build the market data solution iteratively, with working functionality delivered and reviewed in short cycles.
Verify functionality, data accuracy, and performance, including forecasting models, screening logic, and calculations.
Migrate historical market data, watchlists, and existing research from legacy tools with validation at every step.
Connect the system with your market data vendors, trading platform, portfolio management system, and BI tools.
Train analysts, portfolio managers, and administrators on the new workflows.
After the system goes live, we offer ongoing technical support to ensure stability and performance. We also retrain models and implement enhancements as your asset coverage and data sources evolve.
Based on Svitla’s experience, the average cost of building custom market data analysis software ranges from $80,000 to $500,000, depending on solution complexity.

We validate every model against out-of-sample data it hasn’t seen during training, and we track its live performance against its backtested performance on an ongoing basis. A model that looks strong in backtesting but degrades in live use gets flagged and revisited, rather than left running on the strength of its original test results.
Yes. We build validation logic that checks incoming data against expected ranges, recent history, and cross-vendor consistency before it reaches any downstream calculation. A tick that looks anomalous gets flagged for review instead of silently feeding into a forecast or a screen result.
We build configurable precedence rules based on which vendor is more reliable for a specific data type or asset class, rather than picking one vendor as a blanket default. When two sources genuinely conflict beyond an expected tolerance, the discrepancy gets logged and flagged rather than silently resolved.
We build the licensing terms directly into the data architecture, so a restricted dataset can’t accidentally flow to a user or a downstream system it isn’t licensed for. This is designed in from the start, not managed later, since retrofitting licensing controls onto an existing data pipeline is far riskier than building them in.
Yes, and it’s a common reason firms move to custom development in the first place. We build direct, purpose-built feeds into Excel and other analyst tools, rather than relying on a generic add-in layered on top of a system that wasn’t designed with that workflow in mind.
Yes. We design the data model and ingestion architecture to support additional asset classes as a configuration and integration task, not a rebuild. Starting narrow lets you validate the platform’s value on your highest-priority coverage before expanding.
The platform’s economics are based on data licensing costs, not per-user software fees, so adding analysts doesn’t multiply your software cost the way adding terminal seats would. We help you structure vendor licensing agreements around actual data usage, which is usually the more significant cost driver at scale.
Yes. We build ongoing performance monitoring that compares a model’s live predictions against actual outcomes, so a drifting model gets flagged before its recommendations quietly become unreliable. This is part of what makes scheduled retraining a proactive process instead of a reactive one.
We deliver in phases, and the first phase typically covers data ingestion, visualization, and basic screening for your primary asset coverage. That gives you a working system and real usage feedback well before AI forecasting, sentiment analysis, or additional integrations are layered on top.
Yes. We offer post-launch support and enhancement engagements that include monitoring, scheduled model retraining, and the implementation of new features as your asset coverage and data sources evolve. Markets change, and a model that isn’t periodically revisited eventually stops reflecting them accurately.
