Where the data comes from
Every source behind Ahel's pipelines, its licence or terms, how often it refreshes, and what Ahel never collects.
Every row a pipeline returns names its source and the date it was read. This page lists the sources behind each family, as of 20 October 2026.

Questions people ask first
- What is it? A catalog of ready-made data pipelines. Pick a source, switch one on, and new rows arrive by email, in Slack or in your AI.
- What does it cost? 2 to 7 cents per 50 rows. A company watch costs 2 cents per company a month. Empty runs cost nothing, and you get $5 free to start, with no card.
- Where is the data from? The sources above, with the source named on every row.
- Is it legal? We use public registers and official lists under their published reuse terms, and nothing behind a login. Every row shows where it came from, so you can check it.
