It aggregates data from exchanges and financial websites (Sina Finance, East Money, Jin10, and others) and returns results as pandas DataFrames, making it easy to load historical prices, real-time quotes, and market metadata into analysis workflows.\n\nThe library includes an offline interface registry and search function, so you can discover available data endpoints by keyword without network calls\u2014useful for programmatic resolution of data requests. It is designed for quantitative researchers, traders, and data analysts who work primarily with Chinese markets but also need access to US stock data. All data is provided for academic and research purposes only, and the maintainers note that some interfaces may be removed due to external factors.","worth_installing":"Yes. AKShare is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a permissive MIT license. It is well-suited for quantitative research and trading workflows focused on Chinese markets. The main caveat is that data availability depends on third-party sources and interfaces may be removed; verify that the specific endpoints you need are currently available before building production systems on it."},"id":"akshare","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/akshare","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/akshare.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/akshare/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-13","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"akshare","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"AKShare is an elegant and simple financial data interface library for Python, built for human beings!"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2990335,"position":2797,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.18.91"}
