for AI agents.

Built for agents. Signed for trust.

Every response carries full provenance — citation URL, timestamp, source hash, and a canonical status field so your agent never confuses empty data for a real answer.

01

Proprietary corpus

3,500+ curated articles, 200+ entity dossiers, 43 academy lessons — all editorially reviewed, none scraped.

02

6 proprietary indicators

Coverage Index, Narrative Strength, Sentiment Velocity, Editorial Premium, KOL Influence, Risk Score — signals you can't compute from raw price data.

03

Status-aware envelope

Responses include status: complete | unseeded | partial | error. Empty data is never silent — your agent always knows whether the absence is real or the well is dry.

99 tools, 9 categories

One API key. Every surface — MCP tool, REST endpoint, CLI command — maps to the same underlying tool.
