Statista Connect

Statista Connect is Statista’s API solution that allows you to bring trusted insights directly into your own tools, workflows, and applications—without having to log in to the Statista platform or manually export data.

With our APIs, you can integrate 50K+ verified sources and 1M+ datasets into your systems, making research faster, easier, and always accessible where you work.

APIs to simplify your research workflow

Statista Connect and our integrations with various industry-leading partners are designed for businesses who need reliable data embedded directly into their daily workflows. Whether you are building reports, powering AI applications, or creating content, the API ensures your insights are always:

• Accessible: Search, filter, and retrieve data from Statista’s database inside your existing tools.
• Trusted: All insights come from expert‑verified research with transparent sourcing.
• Efficient: Automate tasks like report building and analysis—no copy‑pasting, no exports.
• Flexible: Built on REST APIs with structured JSON responses for quick and secure integration.

The Statista API gives you access to all of our different endpoints, each returning specific types of data to tailor our API solution to your needs:

Search API (search/statistics)

Enables users to search statistics in Statista’s database and retrieve a list of relevant results based on keywords or natural language. Responses include metadata such as title, description text, publication date, industry, geography, and content type, as well as a link to the full content on Statista’s platform. The endpoint provides search results across statistics, reports, infographics, and market insights.

Data API (data/statistic)

Enables users retrieve chart data for a specific statistic. Each call returns the structured data points and metadata (e.g. title, description, source, date) of a statistic, supporting enhanced analytics, visualizations, and ingestion into LLMs.

Research AI API (research-ai/ask)

Integrate our Research AI Chatbot to get summarized answers in text-format to research questions. An overview and detailed description of all available endpoints can be found in our API documentation.

MCP Server Support

The Search & Data endpoints of the Statista API are also available via the Statista MCP, where the available tools correspond to the respective endpoints. The MCP Server provides AI assistants with direct access to Statista’s comprehensive statistical database through a Streamable HTTP interface. This server enables real-time data discovery and retrieval from our extensive collection of charts, reports, and forecasts. Learn more about our MCP server.
