Yes, if you are already using OpenBB Platform and want to integrate Financial Modeling Prep as a data source. The low install friction, active maintenance, and lack of known vulnerabilities make it a straightforward addition. The AGPL-3.0 license is a consideration only if you plan to distribute proprietary modifications; for open-source or internal use, it poses no barrier.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires openbb-core as a runtime dependency; Financial Modeling Prep API credentials or account may be needed depending on data access requirements.
- Low friction installation as a pure Python wheel.
- Actively maintained with a release within the last 80 days.

What it is and what it does
This package is an extension for the OpenBB Platform that plugs in Financial Modeling Prep as a financial data provider. It allows developers using OpenBB to access Financial Modeling Prep's financial data through the platform's unified interface, rather than calling the provider's API directly.
The package is a thin integration layer—it depends only on openbb-core and is distributed as a pure Python wheel, making installation straightforward. It's actively maintained and supports Python 3.10 through 3.14. The AGPL-3.0-only license means any modifications or derivative works must be shared under the same license, which is typical for open-source financial tools but may constrain use in proprietary applications.
Use it for
- Add Financial Modeling Prep as a data source to an OpenBB-based financial analysis application
- Build a multi-provider financial data aggregator using OpenBB with FMP as one of several integrated sources
- Access financial metrics, ratios, and fundamentals through OpenBB's standardized interface instead of direct API calls
- Develop financial research tools that combine OpenBB's data orchestration with FMP's financial datasets
