How this service works
News search: latest news headlines on any topic from thousands of outlets, updated every 15 minutes. Use when an agent needs what happened in the last 1-7 days (companies, crypto, politics, sports, tech). Pass q (keywords). Returns deduplicated headlines with outlet, link, publish time and match score from the GDELT global news index, major outlets and Hacker News. 0.005 USDC/call; failed calls are free.
Output
A JSON object containing the query string, article count, look-back window in hours, and an array of articles. Each article includes: title, URL, source outlet name, publish timestamp, IDF-weighted keyword match score (0–1), provider tag (rss/gdelt/hackernews), and a partialMatch flag. Also includes latency, provider status, and generation timestamp.
Example use cases
Crypto market news briefing
“What's been in the news about Bitcoin ETFs and crypto regulation over the past 3 days? Grab up to 20 headlines with links so I can see what the major outlets are saying.”
Tech company press monitoring
“Can you find recent news coverage of OpenAI from the last 24 hours — I want to see headlines from major tech and business outlets with publish times and links.”
Breaking event situation report
“Get me all the news headlines about the Federal Reserve interest rate decision from the past 48 hours, up to 25 articles, so I can put together a quick briefing.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-seller-pmlm.onrender.com/news?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent needs recent (1–7 days) news headlines for a specific topic from a curated set of major outlets plus GDELT and Hacker News. Prefer it over general web search when you want structured, deduplicated headline data with match scores and source metadata rather than raw search results. Ideal for news briefings, event monitoring, and research pipelines where recency and source diversity matter.
