SC Trade Tools is a passion project from a Star Citizen trader who got tired of looking at spreadsheets! It aims to fill the sweet spot between ease-of-use and fine data-tuning. It does so by providing powerful search filters which allow any trader to gradually refine their trade runs until they find the perfect one for them.
The data is sourced from the Star Citizen community, mostly from contributions from traders like yourself! That means prices reflect real, player-reported values from across the verse and are continuously updated as the community submits new data. The tools support multi-system trades via built-in pathing algorithms, so SC Trade Tools will know the optimal routes as new locations become available.
Since the universe simulation makes prices vary based on supply and demand, reported profits are based on the best available community data at the time of your query. You can help keep the data accurate by submitting price updates through our very own companion application!
- Trade route optimization: find the most profitable routes between locations, with support for multi-stop and multi-system journeys
- Powerful filters: narrow down results by location, ship, cargo capacity, budget, and more
- Shop & commodity browser: look up what's bought and sold where, with community-reported prices
- Always up-to-date data is continuously refreshed from community sources after each patch
- Starmap integration: travel times and routes are computed using in-game starmap data
SC Trade Tools exposes its data programmatically. An API token is required for authenticated endpoints.
N.B.: The project's supporters are automatically granted an API token.
The full REST API is documented via Swagger UI and follows standard HTTP conventions.
