Economic & Demographic Data
Your agent half-remembers economic stats; this returns exact World Bank and US Census figures by place and year.
Finance & Markets
Retrieves macroeconomic indicators and country economic data: GDP, inflation, unemployment rates, interest rates, and more. Covers historical time series and current values across countries and US sub-national geographies. Replaces approximate recalled statistics with exact published figures from official sources.
Use when
You need a precise economic or population statistic for a country or US geography instead of an approximate recalled number.
Not for
Live market prices, company financials, forecasts or projections, and statistics for places or years the official sources do not cover.
What you can do
Each is a sub-skill of Economic & Demographic Data; the router picks the right one for your request.
What you get back
information
Returns the exact values with the place, year, indicator name, and units, plus the source attribution and the date the data was last updated. Values can be missing for some years; those are flagged, not reported as zero. Not a downloadable file.
When it checks with you first
The metric or place is ambiguous enough that the wrong series or geography would be returned.
