What we hold

Two feeds, at different stages. We are straight about which is which, because you should not have to discover it after signing anything.

Korea — public-sector announcements

By arrangement

Announcements from roughly 240 Korean public bodies — ministries, provincial and city governments, public agencies — collected continuously as they are issued. We provision this feed per agreement rather than as open self-serve, because the Korean side runs under distribution contracts and we check the rights for your intended use before switching your key on. Tell us what you would publish and we will come back with what we can license and on what terms.

United States — government releases

Live now

Over 4,000 releases cleared for distribution and growing daily — NASA, the White House, federal departments, state governors and major city offices. Already running on the same API, so it is also the quickest way to see the format and the metering before you commit to anything.

The API

Base URL https://wire.blinkhub.net. Authenticate with an X-Api-Key header. It is a pull API — nothing is pushed at you and there is no FTP drop to babysit.

Method	Path	What it does
GET	/api/wire/v1/health	Service status. No key required.
GET	/api/wire/v1/me	Your account, per-article rate and remaining balance.
GET	/api/wire/v1/articles	What is available — headline, source, timestamp, whether an image exists. Free.
GET	/api/wire/v1/articles/{id}	The full document as ninjs 2.1. This is the call that is metered.

# what is available
curl -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  "https://wire.blinkhub.net/api/wire/v1/articles?limit=20"

# take one
curl -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  "https://wire.blinkhub.net/api/wire/v1/articles/12345"

The listing takes limit (up to 100) and since (ISO 8601), so a scheduled job can ask only for what has appeared since its last run.

Format: IPTC ninjs 2.1

Documents come back as ninjs 2.1 — the IPTC standard most editorial systems already read — with headline, body, source, timestamps, usage terms and associated images. Bodies are cleaned of site furniture before they reach you (newsletter prompts, share rows, repeated blocks), and image URLs are rewritten to public addresses, so nothing arrives pointing at an internal host. Articles that fail our length and quality gate are not served and are not billed.

How billing works

· Listing is free. You should be able to see what exists before you pay for any of it.
· Full text is metered per article. One charge the first time you fetch a given piece.
· Re-fetching is free. Pull the same article again — after a crash, during a re-index, from a second system — and you are not charged twice.
· No subscription, no minimum term. Your balance and per-article rate are always readable at /me.

Pricing

Priced per article, with the rate set by volume and by how you intend to use the material. We would rather quote against your actual case than publish a number that fits nobody. Tell us roughly how many articles a month you expect and which feed you want, and you will get a figure back.

Who this is for

· Publishers covering Asia who need Korean source material and cannot staff Seoul
· Aggregators and news apps adding a Korea section
· Trade and industry titles tracking Korean policy, procurement and public projects
· Research, monitoring and translation teams that want a structured feed instead of scraping
