Case Study: Benzinga Pro Builds a Scalable Trading Community with Stream Chat

How Benzinga Pro Supports a Finance Community with Stream Chat

Benzinga Pro, the subscription platform from financial media company Benzinga, needed to replace its unreliable homegrown chat feature as its subscriber base grew. The team wanted a scalable, feature-rich chat solution that could be embedded directly into the main product and support real-time trading conversations.

Stream provided the Stream Chat API, along with its React SDK and UI Kit components, which Benzinga Pro integrated in about two to three months. With Stream, Benzinga Pro launched reliable in-app chat, added features like ticker-based insights and ticker search, and grew a community of more than 5,000 engaged day traders.
