How this service works
Gap analysis between official statistics and alternative data (satellite nightlights, shipping AIS, electricity, flights) — flags statistical manipulation and structural shifts. For sovereign-debt and FX agents.
Output
Returns a structured gap analysis comparing official economic statistics against multiple alternative data sources (VIIRS satellite nightlights, shipping AIS, electricity consumption, flight activity), including divergence scores, manipulation flags, structural shift indicators, and an overall credibility assessment of official data — tailored for sovereign-debt and FX decision-making.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you run a divergence analysis on Argentina's official GDP and inflation figures versus satellite nightlights, shipping AIS, and electricity signals — I need to know if the reported numbers look credible or if there's statistical manipulation before I take a position on Argentine sovereign debt?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://econsignalpulse.vercel.app/api/econsignal/divergenceWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to cross-validate official government statistics against real-world alternative data signals — specifically for sovereign debt analysis, FX positioning, or any scenario where data credibility of a government's reported figures is in question. Prefer this over pure-official-data endpoints when analyzing frontier or emerging markets, authoritarian regimes, or countries with a history of statistical revision or manipulation.
Side effects
- Country not covered or insufficient alternative data signals available for the requested period
- Official statistics source unavailable or not recently updated
- Alternative data feed (satellite, AIS, electricity) has coverage gap for the requested region
- Invalid country code or unsupported time range returns 400
- Payment not processed correctly via x402 protocol returns 402
- Rate limit exceeded for the endpoint
