Open the reasoning returned with these scores

Magnitude

Thailand issued a THB25 billion, 15-year 8-month sovereign sustainability-linked bond, a significant but not systemic fiscal financing action.

Systemic importance · interconnectedness

The bond attracted domestic and international capital, but no broad financial-system dependence is reported.

Propagation · transmission channel

The bond connects Thailand's sovereign financing to domestic and international investors and sustainability-linked capital.

Market sensitivity · economic effect

The sovereign bond was issued as a live funding instrument, creating an in-force debt claim with defined maturity and sustainability-linked KPIs.

MEET THE RECORDS

Four building blocks. Real examples.

A Story collects the reporting. An Event describes what happened. Entities identify who; facilities locate physical assets.

THREE STEPS, A WORKING WORKFLOW

Choose your scope.
Inspect the evidence. Use the records.

01

Set a country and a bounded time window.

Dates, topics, places and classification are explicit request parameters.

02

Read the developments and their source evidence.

Keep original sources, model scores and coverage beside the result.

03

Add independently dated energy infrastructure.

Copy a request into your application. Start with one bounded page.

DATA BEHIND THIS WORKFLOW

Add energy infrastructure

We combine the GDELT Project article stream with additional regional news sources we ingest directly. GDELT Cloud groups the reporting into Stories, classifies Events and links people, organizations and places.

Put reporting beside Global Energy Monitor facilities in the same country. The registry’s dates and capacity values stay visible, without implying that the reporting affected these assets.

These GEM facilities share the country research scope. This is country context, not evidence of a relationship to or impact from any individual Event.

YOUR WORKLOAD, MADE EXPLICIT

Small start.
Room to build.

Each list page, detail lookup and context request counts as an API call. Set your schedule and see exactly what it adds up to.

1 QU per list page · 1 QU per detail lookup. Your own agent’s direct MCP calls use the same rates as REST.

List requests
1 runs × 1 pages × 1 QU = 1 QU/day
Detail lookups
10 × 1 QU = 10 QU/day
Additional context
0 QU/day
Monthly budget
11 QU/day × 30 days
330 QU / month330 requests including the retry allowance
Builder · $59/month

Lowest current public monthly plan covering these QU and required REST data access. 1,500 QU included.

Annual option: $590 billed yearly.

Hosted Monitors are separate: 3 capacity · daily minimum cadence. This calculator models API polling.

Estimate assumptions

30 days; each context workflow runs once per scheduled run, not once per result. Detail lookups are additional daily calls. Each saved list page requests up to 3 records. Retry allowance budgets additional charged calls; it is not a claim that every failed request is billed. Other account usage and Monitors are excluded.

YOUR AGENT CAN DO THIS TOO

Let your agent run the workflow.

Connect your agent to GDELT Cloud through MCP. The MCP server wraps our API endpoints, so your agent can discover the right tools, apply filters and chain the same data requests shown here.
