Palanor

List or search signals in the Palanor lattice — the unified map of every data source Palanor reads (FRED macro series, commodities, prediction markets, survey indices, Custom Indices). In Palanor, everything is a signal. Pass `query` to search by meaning and name ("are households falling behind", "UNRATE", "propane demand"); results come back most relevant first. Without `query`, signals are listed by slug and can be paged with `offset`.

Get one signal's metadata, its latest value, where that value stands in the signal's own record (percentile, record high/low, highest/lowest since, 30/90/365-day change, moving averages, z-scores, and a plain-language read), and optionally recent history, from the Palanor lattice.

List Palanor Custom Indices — named, narrated composite indicators authored by Palanor (e.g. The Palanor Index, Capital Tightness). Each returns a live value and a published methodology page.

Takes no parameters.

Get one Palanor Custom Index in full — live value, component breakdown, and methodology. Palanor shows its work: the reasoning ships with the number.

List Currents — the world's named macro motions measured by Palanor (Reshoring, AI Margin Compression, The Capital Window). Each carries three reads: Momentum (direction + velocity), Belief (who has bought in), Maturity.

Takes no parameters.

Get one Current's live Momentum / Belief / Maturity reads and its brand phrase.

How S&P 500 companies' 10-K risk factors changed year over year. Each risk factor in a company's latest 10-K (Item 1A) is paired with its counterpart in the prior 10-K and marked added, removed, rewritten or unchanged, tagged to a controlled taxonomy (AI & technology, cyber, regulatory, tariffs & trade, geopolitical, supply chain, labor, climate, credit & liquidity, litigation, concentration, competition, macro & demand), with a one-line summary of what changed. Every row carries its provenance: both SEC filings (public domain) and the derivation.

Each value is quoted verbatim from the SEC filing, verified, and linked into a per-company series; renamed metrics, unit changes, stated redefinitions and revised values are flagged. Cite the quote and the source filing.

With a ticker: for each report year, how many members (House and Senate) listed that S&P 500 company's shares or options, the number of positions, and the summed filed value ranges and range midpoint. Without a ticker: each year's share of members holding any S&P 500 stock, and sector exposure by range midpoint for one year. Values are filed RANGES; midpoints are estimates. No member rankings or net-worth figures.

Get the embed code for a live Palanor chart of one signal or Custom Index: an iframe that renders the series with its source line, license and a link back to its methodology page. Use it when a user wants to put a Palanor chart on a web page, blog post or dashboard. Only charts whose data may be redistributed embed (public-domain and openly licensed sources, Palanor-derived series, public Custom Indices); market prices never do, and the result says why when a chart cannot be embedded.

Render a Palanor Studio chart (PNG) of 1–4 public signals — the same brand-locked chart, verification and licence checks the Studio uses. Asynchronous: returns a job id; call palanor_get_chart until status is "done" (typically under a minute), then use the image URL. Numbers are never typed: omit `claim` for a default, or write one with tokens such as "{{a.last|1}}" (a = first signal, b = second…; also .first, .min, .max, .change, .as_of, .first_x, .last_x). A digit written into `claim` fails verification. Only redistributable signals chart; market prices (equities, ETFs, crypto, FX) do not. Allowance: Free 10 a month, Pro 25 a day, Enterprise 200 a day.

Status of a chart started with palanor_create_chart; checking does not count against your monthly requests. When status is "done" it returns the PNG URL(s), the resolved headline, the licence attribution lines to print with it, and the values charted.

A signal's observations between two dates from the Palanor lattice, oldest first, up to 1,000 per call (page with `offset` while `pagination.has_more`). Use it for a series over a set window, e.g. the 2y10y Treasury spread since 2020; palanor_get_signal gives the latest value and its context. Every result carries the provenance block of the signal's source.

Palanor Foresight™ for one signal: the projected value at a horizon with a band that holds about two in three outcomes, and the projected path. The horizon depends on the series: 30 days for daily to monthly data, 1 year for quarterly, 3 years for annual. `method` is the disclosure printed under Palanor charts: the blend and the related signals it reads. A source's own published forecast is not projected again. Pro and Enterprise keys. Requires a Pro or Enterprise key.

Find signals in the Palanor lattice by meaning and keywords, e.g. "yield curve", "used car prices", "Canada unemployment". Returns only signals the API serves, each with its slug, latest value and source, so every slug works in palanor_get_signal and palanor_get_observations.

The latest reading of up to 100 signals in one call, each with its provenance. A slug the API does not serve comes back with an error instead of a value. Costs one request per ten slugs, rounded up.

The saved Entity Screener screens this key's owner can run: their own, those shared with their organization, and Palanor's house screens. Ids feed palanor_run_screen.

Takes no parameters.

Run a saved Entity Screener screen (companies, investors, funds or deals from SEC Form D, EDGAR, Form ADV, USPTO and USAspending) with its saved filters and columns. Each row links its primary-source filing and its Palanor page. Adviser and fund rows carry the BrokerCheck notice, which must travel with them. Requires a Pro or Enterprise key.
