About
APITube is a News API. One GET request returns news articles as structured JSON — already enriched with sentiment, entities, topics and categories, so you never parse HTML or run a crawler.
What you get
500,000+ verified sources, 180+ countries, 60+ languages
Sentiment score and extracted entities (people, organizations, locations, brands, events) on every article
65+ filter parameters combinable in one request: keywords, language, country, source domain, source quality rank, sentiment range, entity IDs, media presence, date ranges
Real-time delivery plus a historical archive
Exports on paid plans: JSON, JSONL, XML, CSV, RSS, XLSX, Parquet
Endpoints
GET /v1/news/everything — the main search, all filters in one call
GET /v1/news/top-headlines — breaking coverage
GET /v1/news/story — articles clustered into stories
GET /v1/news/trends — trending entities, topics and categories over time buckets
GET /v1/news/stream — live Server-Sent Events feed
GET /v1/suggest/entities — autocomplete entity IDs before you filter on them
For AI builders
A hosted MCP server runs at mcp.apitube.io — no install, no local process. Point Claude, Cursor or any MCP client at it with an API key and the model searches news and resolves entity IDs on its own. Webhooks and WebSocket dispatches push new matches to your endpoint as they are indexed.
Who uses it
Media and brand monitoring — mentions across languages with sentiment attached
Market and financial intelligence — filter by entity, industry and sentiment
RAG pipelines and AI agents — a live, structured news corpus instead of scraped HTML
Research and data science — historical coverage for backtesting and longitudinal analysis
Pricing
Free tier: 100 requests/day, no card required. Paid plans from $29/month. The MCP server requires a paid plan (Starter and up). Pay-as-you-go is $0.01 per request.
SDKs and auth
Node.js, PHP and Python clients live at github.com/apitube. Auth is a single API key, passed as an api_key query parameter, an X-API-Key header, or an Authorization: Bearer header. Docs: docs.apitube.io
