_Disclosure grades measure what a vendor publishes, never product quality. A vendor publishing a weak SLA scores better than one publishing none._

Which prop firm technology vendors name a market data feed integration, and which feeds they name. None of the vendors here sells market data itself.

## Vendors

Verified first, then by disclosure grade. "Not published" means the vendor does not state it — not that the product lacks it.

## How to choose

1. Futures data is licensed per exchange and often per user; ask whether the vendor passes that cost through or bundles it.
2. A simulated account still needs real prices. Check the feed covers every instrument you plan to list.
3. Ask every vendor for a price in writing: 2 of the 6 here publish one, and 1 publish a minimum term or notice period.
