What it does

NewsData.io collects news articles from tens of thousands of sources in many languages and countries. Search the latest news by keyword, country, language, category or source, or use the archive for older articles; there are separate endpoints for crypto news and for the list of sources. Responses are JSON. The free plan needs a free API key, gives a daily number of credits and may be used commercially. An official MCP server (Python package newsdata-mcp) lets AI agents search the news.
