Build a Real-Time Financial News and Analyst Intelligence Dashboard with Massive + Benzinga
Feb 25, 2026
TL;DR — Massive has partnered with Benzinga to bring real-time financial news, analyst ratings, earnings data, and more directly into the Massive API. Nine endpoints cover everything from structured news articles and consensus ratings to earnings and corporate guidance, all accessible through easy subscriptions with Massive. We also built a dashboard demo that ties all nine endpoints together into an interactive monitor you can run locally in no time.
Getting accurate, structured analyst intelligence and financial news into a working application has traditionally meant stitching together multiple vendors, normalizing inconsistent response formats, and maintaining separate authentication flows. Massive's partnership with Benzinga consolidates that into a single API surface.
Benzinga is the trusted source of market news, analyst ratings, earnings data, and more for millions of investors. Through this partnership, their institutional-grade datasets are available through Massive's API: over 1,000 daily headlines, 13+ years of historical analyst ratings, and coverage across 9,000+ US tickers. PLUS, Eight of the nine endpoints now support real-time polling.
We built a dashboard demo that exercises all nine endpoints in a single application. You can find it towards the bottom of this blog, or visit our community GitHub repo directly.
Access Requirements: These endpoints require Benzinga partnership access, available through Massive's partnership offerings. Visit this page for pricing details.
