About Algoseek

In 2014, after nearly a decade of developing high frequency trading systems, Chris and Yuri felt the pain of sourcing high quality data for research and backtesting. Data from top vendors was like an expensive house with marvelous facade but rudimentary inside, full of missing, broken pieces upon close inspection. “We can do better.” Chris and Yuri said. The following year, Equity Trade and Quote (TAQ) Minute Bar, our first dataset with over 60 data points, was born. It quickly won adopters because quants found out, for the first time, instead of writing software to process raw tick data by themselves and dealing with quality control, they had an option. algoseek Minute Bar provided the information they needed to decipher markets and backtest trading strategies, such as buy-driven volume and sell-driven volume, FINRA and non-FINRA, and VWAP/TWAP among many others. No quant had expected such a thorough dataset directly from a data vendor. By 2017, our products had expanded to include aggregated futures and options data. In 2018, after a whole year of developing and testing, algoseek launched Equity Reference Data with Security Master File and Corporate Event History, new products now used by most rigorous firms. Today, algoseek has served more than 450 clients around the world. We are proud to have more than 110 datasets with a collective size of 3,000 terabytes and growing. In six years, we have become the No. 1 intraday market data provider for quantitative firms. Going forward, we will add Forex, Cryptocurrencies, SQL queries, and global data in 2020 and beyond. We will continue to grow our data service and customization capabilities to become the one-stop data solution provider for the capital markets.
