This guide explains the easiest and most robust way to connect your Benzinga account to Hermes. You can do this through either Composio Connect CLI or Composio Connect MCP. For personal use we recommend the CLI, but you won't go wrong with MCP either. ## Also integrate Benzinga with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/openclaw) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/benzinga/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### What is Composio Connect? Composio Connect is a consumer offering that lets anyone plug 1,000+ applications directly into their agent harness โ€” including Hermes. It can: - Search and load tools from relevant toolkits on-demand, reducing context usage. - Chain multiple tools to accomplish complex workflows via a remote workbench, without excessive back-and-forth with the LLM. - Manage app authentication end-to-end with zero manual overhead. ## Connect Benzinga to Hermes ### Integrating Benzinga with Hermes ### Using Composio Connect CLI 1. Install the Composio CLI Run the install script directly, or paste https://composio.dev/hermes into your Hermes chat box to have it installed for you. ```bash curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash ``` ## What is the Benzinga MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Benzinga MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Benzinga account. It provides structured and secure access to real-time financial news and market data, so your agent can track earnings, monitor analyst ratings, stream news, and analyze economic events on your behalf. - Live financial news streaming: Instantly stream real-time news updates, market-moving events, and breaking headlines as they happen so your agent always stays informed. - Earnings and conference call tracking: Automatically retrieve upcoming earnings dates, actuals, estimates, and conference call details for any ticker or date range. - Analyst sentiment and ratings insights: Fetch consensus analyst ratings, price targets, and detailed rating calendars to help evaluate stock sentiment and trends. - Economic event analysis: Access comprehensive economic calendar events, including values, consensus, and importance filters to understand macroeconomic impacts. - Audit and manage removed items: Identify and review deleted news articles or cancelled calendar events for full transparency and compliance. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `BENZINGA_GET_CALENDAR_EARNINGS_STREAM` | Get Calendar Earnings Stream | Tool to subscribe to real-time earnings calendar events via websocket. use when you need immediate updates as reports are announced. | | `BENZINGA_GET_CONFERENCE_CALLS` | Get Conference Calls | Tool to retrieve upcoming and historical conference call details such as times, tickers, and webcast urls. use when filtering conference calls by date range or ticker symbols. | | `BENZINGA_GET_CONSENSUS_RATINGS` | Get Consensus Ratings | Tool to get consensus analyst ratings and price targets for a specified ticker over a date range. use when you need to gauge analyst sentiment and target price consensus for investment decisions. | | `BENZINGA_GET_EARNINGS_V21` | Get Earnings Calendar V2.1 | Tool to retrieve earnings calendar data (v2.1). use when you need dates, estimates, and actuals for upcoming earnings events. | | `BENZINGA_GET_ECONOMICS` | Get Economics | Tool to retrieve economic calendar events including actual, consensus, and prior values and importance. use when filtering by date, country, importance, or updated timestamp. | | `BENZINGA_GET_NEWSFEED_STREAM` | Get Newsfeed Stream | Tool to stream real-time news events via websocket. use when you need immediate updates to news as they are created, updated, or removed. | | `BENZINGA_GET_RATINGS` | Get Analyst Ratings | Tool to fetch analyst ratings calendar data including rating actions, price targets, and analyst details. use when querying upcoming or historical analyst ratings. | | `BENZINGA_GET_REMOVED` | Get Removed | Tool to retrieve removed or cancelled calendar events. use when you need to identify calendar items removed for specific event types or filtered by removal timestamp. | | `BENZINGA_GET_REMOVED_NEWS` | Get Removed News | Tool to retrieve news articles that have been deleted from the database. use when you need to fetch removed articles with pagination and timestamp filters. | ## Supported Triggers None listed. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The Benzinga MCP server provides comprehensive access to Benzinga operations through Composio. Once connected, Hermes can perform all major Benzinga actions on your behalf using natural language commands. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward With Benzinga connected, Hermes can now act on your behalf whenever it detects a relevant task or you ask it to. From here, you can extend Hermes further: - Connect more apps: Calendar, Slack, Notion, Linear, and hundreds of others are available through the same Composio Connect setup. Each new integration compounds what Hermes can do for you. - Build workflows across tools: Once multiple apps are connected, Hermes can chain actions together โ€” turn an email into a calendar invite, a Slack message into a Linear ticket, or a meeting note into a follow-up draft. - Let it learn your patterns: The more you use Hermes, the better it gets at anticipating how you'd handle recurring tasks. Give it feedback on drafts and decisions, and it will adapt.

With a standalone Benzinga MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Benzinga tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Benzinga and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Hermes? Yes, you can. Hermes fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Benzinga tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Benzinga while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Benzinga scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Benzinga data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) ยท [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
