Economic data, one interface
Every economic number. One API.
Economy API collects official statistics from central banks and statistical offices and serves them as clean, versioned time series.

02How it works
- 01
Official sources first
Every value comes from the agency that publishes it and links back to that release.
- 02
Revisions never overwrite
Each release is kept as a vintage, so you can ask what was known on any given day.
- 03
Release times, not just dates
Observations carry when they were published and when we first saw them.
- 04
One shape for every series
The same identifiers, units and frequencies whichever country or agency a series comes from.
