GNews is Fine — Until You Need More
GNews API works well for basic news fetching. The free tier at 100 requests/day is enough to test. But their paid plans scale up quickly for what you get — $79/month for 1,000 requests/day, $149/month for 5,000/day.
The main limitation is source coverage. GNews aggregates from a limited set of publishers. If you need Southeast Asian news, financial-specific sources, or niche industry coverage, the gaps show up fast.
NestDaddy covers 150,000+ sources including strong Southeast Asia coverage (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines), dedicated financial and crypto feeds, and tech news from 60+ publishers.
