How this service works
DataForAgents — Alpha Pulse (15m). Dynamic price: ~80% off when you trigger harvest for an empty calendar block; full price on cache hits.
Output
A JSON object containing a pulse_id, window_start and window_end timestamps (15-minute interval), the requested category, an events array with news items, events_count, a status field ('success'), a pricing_tier ('cache' or live), a harvested flag, and a ready boolean indicating data availability.
Example use cases
AI agent finance news monitor
“Every 15 minutes, fetch the latest finance macro news pulse and alert me if there are more than 10 events — just pay the per-call fee automatically each time.”
Geopolitics briefing for analyst bot
“Get me the current geopolitics news pulse right now — I want the full structured event list from the latest 15-minute window so I can summarize it for my team.”
Sports score and news feed
“Grab the latest sports news pulse for this 15-minute window and give me the event count and what's happening — no signup needed, just pay on the wire.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://dataforagents.net/v1/news/pulse/alphaWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need structured, categorized news event data refreshed at 15-minute intervals without any API key setup — ideal for autonomous agents that can pay per-request via x402 USDC. Prefer it over subscription news APIs when you want pay-as-you-go access, over web scraping when you need clean JSON, and over general search when you want pre-aggregated pulse snapshots in specific verticals (finance, geopolitics, tech/AI, sports).
Side effects
- Payment not sent or insufficient USDC — x402 payment required error
- Invalid category enum value — request rejected with schema validation error
- Service unavailable or data not yet harvested for the current window — ready: false returned
- Network timeout during 15-minute window boundary transitions
- Rate limiting or facilitator-side payment processing delay
