OpenBB Releases Its Second Generation Open Source Investment Research Platform With a Software Development Kit (SDK) and an AI/ML Toolkit

SAN FRANCISCO, November 29, 2022 (Newswire.com) - OpenBB, the company on a mission to democratize investment research, today announced the availability of its second generation investment research software platform.

News Summary:

• OpenBB Terminal 2.0 now includes a Software Development Kit (SDK) and an Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) Toolkit.
• OpenBB SDK provides access to all functions that underlie the OpenBB Terminal 2.0 so that individuals and institutions can use it to access raw financial data from multiple sources and build their own dashboards and applications using Jupyter Notebooks and code editors such as Microsoft's VS Code.
• OpenBB AI/ML Toolkit allows OpenBB Terminal 2.0 users to bring in their proprietary financial and non-financial data and combine it with multiple other sources of data available in the OpenBB Terminal to train and use intelligent time-series based forecasting models.

OpenBB believes that everyone - an individual investor, a professional investor, or a finance academic - needs access to high quality investment research tools that can be seamlessly integrated into their own investment research workflows. That is exactly what OpenBB Terminal 2.0 provides with its:

• 914 commands accessible via a Command Line Interface (CLI) 
• 549 unique functions accessible with Python via the new SDK
• 92 data sources 
• 8 asset classes (stocks, currencies, cryptocurrencies, options, ETFs/Funds, US treasury bonds, futures, NFTs) plus a range of macro and local economic data
