# GeoPol Risk — Daily Geopolitical Tension Score

> GeoPol Risk — Daily Geopolitical Tension Score is a paid API for AI agents from agentdatum.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Returns a 14-day daily time series of global geopolitical tension intensity derived from GDELT conflict-related news coverage, with a 0–100 percentile score, z-score, tension level label, top-15 country coverage, and top article details.

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://agentdatum.com/api/v1/d/geopol-risk
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-14
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/geopol-risk-daily-geopolitical-tension-score-2176df90

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability geopol-risk-daily-geopolitical-tension-score-2176df90
```

Example prompt: What's the current global geopolitical tension level — give me today's GDELT-based conflict score, whether it's in the elevated or calm range, the z-score, and the 14-day daily intensity trend so I can assess event-driven risk.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a real-time, quantitative geopolitical risk signal grounded in actual global news coverage density rather than a fixed-threshold index. It is ideal for event-driven trading strategies, macro regime detection, and automated risk monitoring that requires a percentile-based score and daily time series context rather than a static qualitative assessment. Prefer it over sentiment APIs when you specifically want conflict-category news intensity with country-level attribution.

## Known failure modes

- GDELT API upstream outage may return empty timeseries or zero article count
- Stale data if GDELT ingestion is delayed — check collected_at timestamp
- Rate-limiting or payment failure (x402) returns 402 Payment Required
- No query parameters accepted — any parameter mismatch returns schema validation error
- Score may reflect news volume spikes unrelated to actual geopolitical escalation (media bias artifact)

## How this service works

Geopolitical Risk Daily Score — GDELT global news event stream real-time geopolitical tension: 14-day daily series of conflict-related report share, latest intensity, z-score, 0-100 percentile score, tension level (very-calm/calm/normal/elevated/elevated-high), plus top 15 countries by report volume in 24h and top headlines. Score based on actual report density percentile, not fixed thresholds, usable for risk timing and event-driven strategies.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing: the current tension level label (very-calm / calm / normal / elevated / elevated-high), the 0–100 percentile tension score, the intensity z-score, the latest conflict-coverage intensity percentage, the 14-day daily intensity time series, the 24-hour article count, top-15 countries by coverage share, top article details, and metadata including data source (GDELT DOC 2.0) and collection timestamp.
