Yes, IB is what I use too. Their paid individual account tier is only $10 a month and provides SDK's with robust support for Python, Java, and C++.

Does their paid tier include free options trading? That’s what’s attractive about Robinhood, but they cost me $7k on Monday so I’m dumping them.
Only US Exchange-Listed Stocks / ETFs are commission free.[1] Honestly though, the commissions are extremely low. Definitely lower than that $7k. Just keep in mind, you get what you pay for.

Their fees are something like 10 cents if you’re trading an option. Completely irrelevant.
