World News API

Search International News Sources The News API searches thousands of news outlets worldwide, enabling you to access multiple perspectives on the same issue. News is indexed in real-time, so you'll receive breaking news as well as historical data through the API. Search by Location Anywhere on Earth News texts frequently mention places like cities, neighborhoods, or points of interest. We tag these locations so you can search for news referencing any spot within a specific area. Combine Semantic Search with Text Filtering Semantic search allows you to find entities without worrying about exact spellings or synonyms. For example, to find news about the USA, you can search for "Location:USA," and all articles mentioning the country will be returned, whether they refer to "US," "United States," or "United States of America." You can also search for exact text matches, phrases, or exclude certain words from your search. Filter by Source Country and Language We index news in over 50 languages from more than 150 countries. With simple country and language filters, you can narrow your search to specific regions and languages. For instance, you can look for Spanish-language news originating from the U.S. or French-language news from Canada. Combining country filters with other parameters lets you delve deeper into news coverage—for example, comparing reports on polarizing topics from different countries. Search News Within a Time Frame News relevance is often fleeting, but new reports always build on past events. The API allows you to filter news by publication date to analyze content over time, such as tracking shifts in sentiment or coverage volume on a topic. Search by Positive and Negative News Coverage News items (currently limited to English and German) are analyzed using an AI-trained sentiment classifier, assigning each article an overall score between -1 (negative) and +1 (positive).
