SANDL Project

Introduction

The labeled financial-news data layer, with attention indices built on top.

SANDL Project is an open, validated labeled-news data layer: every article ingested from GDELT, labeled by relevance, domain, impact, region, and FinBERT sentiment. On top of that feed it publishes news-based attention indices for market themes - how much of the day's news covers bank and financial stress, energy and oil risk, and crypto, indexed to 100 = the historical average, frozen at end-2025, with every spike traced to the headlines behind it. The indices are descriptive - a measure of news attention, not a trading signal.

Two endpoints, one API key:

  • Labeled news - GET /api/v1/news returns the data layer: per-article labeled rows. Start here: Quickstart.
  • Indices - GET /api/v1/indexes returns the flagship view built on it: the daily index series and the grounded spikes. See Indexes API.
