TOTAL TRANSPARENCY ON TRANSACTION COSTS
The Ideal Impact API delivers institutional-grade transaction cost analysis with plug-and-play integration, enabling teams to measure the true cost of their trades. With instant calculation of market impact costs, traders have total transparency on what spreads they are actually paying — so they can make more informed trading decisions in future.
Ideal Impact is also the first-ever analytics API to use Pyth Network market data.
The Impact API is free to use with some limitations. Pro and Enterprise access is also available.


YOUR TRUE COSTS, REVEALED
With any given trade, liquidity providers and venues can vary in their execution quality. With Impact, now it’s easy to identify venues with high transaction costs — wide spreads, large markups — so you can better understand your profitability and optimize your trading decisions. Incognito mode protects the privacy of your data.
INSTITUTIONAL-GRADE ANALYTICS
Anyone who has executed trades, regardless of whether they are retail or institutional players, can now access the same sophisticated analytics and insights used by the top high-frequency trading firms and banks.
PLUG-AND-PLAY INTEGRATION
Because Impact’s analytics are available via API, you can easily integrate these powerful insights into your preferred front-end solution.
