Official economic statistics where every number ships with its citation — plus a verifier that checks any claimed figure against the official series. Built and curated by a professional economist.
AI agents and analysts constantly need macro numbers they can defend: GDP growth, inflation, unemployment, government debt, exchange rates. This actor returns the official value and the receipt — source, dataset, series ID, canonical URL, license, retrieval date, and a ready-to-paste citation sentence.
What it does
| Operation | What you get |
|---|---|
indicator | Values for any of 42 curated indicators (inflation, GDP growth, debt/GDP, current account, FDI, …) for 200+ economies, with citation |
verify | Check a claimed figure against the official series → match / close / mismatch / cannot_verify, with diagnostics (wrong year? percent-vs-decimal? millions-vs-billions?) and the correct citable value |
snapshot | 11 headline indicators for one country, each with its own citation — instant country brief |
inflation | "What is $100 (1995) worth in 2025 money?" — CPI-ratio method, formula disclosed, any country |
fx | Currency conversion: ECB daily reference rates (~30 majors since 1999) + official annual rates for ~90 more currencies (BBD, XCD, JMD, KES…) |
series | Raw access: worldbank/CODE, dbnomics/IMF/WEO:latest/... |
search / registry | Discover indicators and datasets |
Sources
World Bank World Development Indicators (CC BY 4.0) · IMF World Economic Outlook via DBnomics · ECB euro reference rates · optional FRED. Data is fetched live from official APIs — this actor adds no numbers of its own, and labels IMF projections as projections.
