Tools

9 tools listed at last check
  • search_news Newest-first headlines from worldwide sources, optionally filtered by words, language, country, topic, source, kind and time.
  • sync_news Incremental feed: returns items added after `after`, oldest first, plus a new cursor. Call again with that cursor to get only what is new.
  • list_stories The most widely covered stories right now (last 48h), each with a neutral multi-source brief when available, outlet count, languages, entities and a representative report. Filter by lang, country, category, entity.
  • find_entities Look up Wikidata ids for a name (e.g. "Tesla", "Lagos") with how many items mention each in the last 7 days; pass the id as `entity` to search_news or list_stories.
  • get_story Every item in a story (the `story` id on items, st_…): all outlets and languages covering the same event, newest first.
  • get_news_item Full record for one item id (n_… for news, s_… for sponsored).
  • list_sources Registered sources with their language, country, kind and health. Filter by q (name), country or lang.
  • quote_placement Quote for placing a labeled, paid press release in the Hottub News mix via Hottub Business. Price varies by topic tier, current topic interest, demand, targeting reach and duration; the response itemizes each factor. Read-only: returns a price; books and charges nothing.
  • news_stats Item counts over the last 24 hours by kind, language, country and source, plus the current sync cursor.
