Documentation: https://docs.apitube.io/

The APITube News API searches news articles by title, topic, language, sentiment, source and date, for example to build a topic feed or a news alert. Requests are GET calls with an X-API-Key header, and the answers are JSON with up to 10 articles per call on the free plan. Free with a free API key for 100 requests a day, for development and testing; articles arrive 12 hours late and show a 200-character preview. An official MCP server at https://mcp.apitube.io/ lets AI agents search the news, on paid plans only.

Example request:

```sh
curl 'https://api.apitube.io/v1/news/everything?title=London' \
  -H 'X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY'
```

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with your own key. Run the JavaScript on a server, such as Node.js 18 or newer: this API does not accept calls from web pages on other sites.
