sentisense

npm version License: MIT

Official JavaScript/TypeScript SDK for the SentiSense market intelligence API.

Install

npm install sentisense

Quick Start

import SentiSense from "sentisense";

const client = new SentiSense({ apiKey: "ss_live_YOUR_KEY" });

const price = await client.stocks.getPrice("AAPL");
console.log(price.currentPrice);

// reportDate is optional; omit it to get the latest available quarter
// (this one returns a wrapper: see "Response shapes" below)
const flows = await client.institutional.getFlows();

Features

  • Full TypeScript support with detailed type definitions
  • Works in Node.js 18+, Deno, Bun, and browsers
  • Zero runtime dependencies (uses native fetch)
  • Namespaced API resources (stocks, documents, institutional, etc.)
  • Typed error hierarchy for clean error handling

Response shapes

Most methods resolve to the payload directly, but two families wrap it. The return types describe the wrapper, so .data / .documents type-check natively, no cast.

1. Tier-gated endpoints return a preview envelope. The payload is in data, and isPreview tells you whether it was truncated for your tier. On a truncated response totalCount carries the untruncated size, so you can render "showing N of M".

Affected: institutional.getFlows / getHolders / getActivists, and all five insights methods.

const flows = await client.institutional.getFlows();
if (flows.isPreview) {
  console.log(`Preview: ${flows.data.inflows.length} of ${flows.totalCount}`);
}
for (const flow of flows.data.inflows) {
  console.log(flow.ticker, flow.netSharesChange);
}

// holders nest one level deeper: ticker-level totals plus the rows
const holders = await client.institutional.getHolders("AAPL", "2026-06-30");
console.log(`${holders.data.holderCount} holders`);
const newPositions = holders.data.holders.filter((h) => h.changeType === "NEW");

// insights use the same envelope, wrapping a plain array
const insights = await client.insights.stock("AAPL");
for (const insight of insights.data) {
  console.log(insight.insightText);
}

2. Document endpoints return a search wrapper. This is not the preview envelope: the rows are in documents and there is no isPreview.

Affected: documents.getByTicker / getByTickerRange / getByEntity / search / getBySource. Also stocks.getFundamentalsPeriods, whose periods are in periods.

const results = await client.documents.search("NVDA earnings", { days: 7 });
console.log(`${results.totalCount} matches`);
for (const doc of results.documents) {
  console.log(doc.url, doc.averageSentiment);
}

Everything else, including stocks.getPrice(), documents.getStories(), insights.types() and institutional.getQuarters(), resolves to the value itself with no wrapper.

Upgrading from 0.28.x or earlier? These return types were corrected in 0.29.0. If your code read the flat shape (flows.inflows, holders.filter(...)), it was returning undefined / throwing at runtime already; switch to flows.data.inflows / holders.data.holders. See CHANGELOG.md for the full mapping.

client.kb.getPopularEntities()

Analyst Ratings

The price target cone (mean, high, low, upside %) and consensus are free for everyone, full data via API: we give it away. Upgrade/downgrade feeds and forward EPS estimates are limited on free, unlimited on PRO.

client.analyst.consensus("AAPL")                        // Price target cone + consensus. Free for everyone, full data.
client.analyst.actions("AAPL", { lookbackDays: 30 })    // Upgrade/downgrade feed. Free: 3 most recent. PRO: unlimited.
client.analyst.estimates("AAPL")                        // Forward EPS + earnings surprises. Free: 1 quarter. PRO: full history.
client.analyst.marketActivity({ lookbackDays: 7 })      // Market-wide analyst actions (PRO).

Company KPIs (PRO)

client.stocks.getKpis("AAPL")       // Product metrics and segment revenue time-series. Free returns metadata only (empty kpis array); PRO returns full series.
client.stocks.listKpiCoverage()     // All tickers with curated KPI data (free, no quota cost)

ETFs (beta)

Composition data is public; the holdings-weighted aggregate views follow the same PRO-with-preview pattern as Analyst/Insider. Aggregates synthesize fund-level views from each constituent's per-stock data, weighted by allocation, with a coverage block on every response.

client.etfs.list()                                              // Every ETF tracked. Returns ticker, name, issuer, tracked index, asset class.
client.etfs.holdings("QQQ")                                     // Full composition: per-holding weights + freshness metadata.
client.etfs.analystAggregate("QQQ")                             // Holdings-weighted analyst consensus. Free: headline + coverage. PRO: + topContributors.
client.etfs.insiderAggregate("ARKK", { lookbackDays: 90 })      // Holdings-weighted Form 4 net flow. Free: headline. PRO: + topContributors.
client.etfs.sentimentAggregate("QQQ")                           // SentiSense readings side-by-side: constituent-weighted vs direct.

Market Mood

client.marketMood.get()

Error Handling

import SentiSense, { AuthenticationError, RateLimitError } from "sentisense";

try {
  const summary = await client.stocks.getAISummary("AAPL");
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof AuthenticationError) {
    // 401 or 403: invalid/missing API key or insufficient tier
  } else if (error instanceof RateLimitError) {
    // 429: quota exceeded
  }
}
Error Class HTTP Status When
AuthenticationError 401, 403 Invalid API key or insufficient tier
NotFoundError 404 Resource not found
RateLimitError 429 Quota exceeded
APIError Other 4xx/5xx General API error

All errors extend SentiSenseError and include status, code, and message properties.
