What is Truth API? The new paid-for tool giving fast access to Trump's posts, explained
Trump Media launched Truth API on Saturday, selling traders faster access to some Truth Social posts. Here's how it works, and who it's for.
The Truth API is a paid service that provides traders with fast access to Trump's posts on Truth Social. Launched by Trump Media & Technology Group, the API allows high-frequency trading firms to receive machine-readable feeds of the highest-ranking Truth Social accounts' posts in milliseconds. While primarily aimed at firms affected by information delays, such as hedge funds and proprietary trading desks, the service has raised concerns among some Trump supporters and Democratic senators, who argue it constitutes an "outrageous abuse of the President's office."
