| Pyth Pro   | Institutional precision price feeds    | 120+ first-party providers and 100+ blockchains       | No vault risk decomposition identified                   | Ultra-low-latency price feeds                     | REST/WebSocket APIs | `https://docs.pyth.network/price-feeds`; `https://docs.pyth.network/price-feeds/pro/faq`; `https://legacy.pyth.network/pyth-price-feeds` |

Pyth Pro, previously known as Lazer, is the closest category comparable because it proves institutions pay for precision data. Pyth's public docs position Pro as subscription-based price data for institutions and advanced use cases, with ultra-low latency, customizable channels, and dedicated support.

Alterscope is broader. It does not try to beat Pyth at producing precision market prices. It wraps vaults, oracles, curators, peg history, knowledge graph, simulation, and risk events into an agentic-first API. Pyth gives a fast feed. Alterscope tells your vault, risk, or AI system what that feed means for the position.
