Today we are releasing the CEORater CLI, a command-line interface that provides direct terminal access to the same proprietary CEO performance data available through our web application and REST API. Install it with a single command and start querying S&P 500 CEO analytics in seconds.
$ pip install ceorater $ ceorater lookup NVDA NVIDIA (NVDA) CEO: Jensen Huang | Founder: Yes | Tenure: 27.3 yrs Sector: Technology | Industry: Semiconductors Metric Value CEORaterScore 99 AlphaScore 100 RevCAGR Score 100 CompScore A
Why a CLI?
AI agents and automated investment workflows are reshaping how institutional firms source, evaluate, and act on data. These systems do not use browsers. They operate through structured inputs and outputs—byte streams between processes. A command-line interface is the native language of automation.
The CEORater CLI outputs clean JSON when invoked with the --json flag, making it directly consumable by any agent framework, script, or pipeline without parsing HTML or navigating a GUI.
$ ceorater lookup AAPL --json { "companyName": "Apple Inc.", "ticker": "AAPL", "ceoraterScore": 76, "alphaScore": 94, "compScore": "C", ... }
Three Delivery Channels, One Dataset
CEORater now offers three ways to access identical CEO performance data:
CEORater Web—our full interactive application with Claude-powered AI chat for conversational CEO research.
CEORater API—RESTful endpoints for programmatic integration into models, spreadsheets, and factor engines.
CEORater CLI—terminal-native access for developers, quants, and AI agents. Installable via pip install ceorater.
All three channels serve the same underlying dataset: proprietary CEORaterScore, AlphaScore, RevenueCAGRScore, and CompScore metrics covering 500+ S&P 500 CEOs, updated daily after U.S. market close.
Available Commands
ceorater lookup <TICKER>—detailed CEO performance card with scores, TSR metrics, and compensation data for any S&P 500 company.
ceorater search <QUERY>—search across company names, CEO names, sectors, and industries.
ceorater list—paginated list of all CEOs in the database.
ceorater meta—dataset statistics including total coverage and last refresh timestamp.
Getting Started
The CLI uses the same API key as the CEORater REST API. Existing API subscribers can install and start querying immediately. New users can subscribe at ceorater.com/api-docs.html to get started.
Source code and documentation are available on GitHub.
