BinaryEdge has been shut down

Shut down. Coalition, which bought BinaryEdge in 2020, switched the platform and API off at 23:59 GMT on 31 March 2025. Old keys no longer work and no new ones are issued. The documentation URL now redirects to a Coalition page, which is why it can still look alive.

Overview & Architectural Role

BinaryEdge provides programmatic access to provide access to binaryedge 40fy scanning platform. Delivered over secure HTTPS protocols, it exposes structured endpoints designed to integrate cleanly into modern frontend frameworks, backend microservices, and automated data pipelines without requiring local database provisioning.

Who it is built for

Engineers building web dashboards, mobile applications, CLI utilities, or background cron workers in need of reliable security data feeds.

Architectural Advantage

Consuming BinaryEdge removes the operational overhead of running custom scrapers, orchestrating headless browser fleets, or manually seeding and maintaining a local database. Instead of reverse-engineering volatile DOM layouts or dealing with anti-bot IP blocks, your application connects directly to a standardized JSON interface designed for backend ingestion with consistent schema schemas. Dedicated authentication ensures rate quotas and credential tracking per project environment.
