Truth Social Launches $100,000 Monthly API Service for Real-Time Data Access
Trump Media & Technology Group has introduced a new subscription service, Truth API, allowing users to access platform posts in real-time. The service is priced at $100,000 per month and is aimed at high-paying clients and traders.
Trump Media & Technology Group, the parent company of the social media platform Truth Social, officially launched its 'Truth API' service on August 1. The service provides subscribers with high-speed, real-time access to posts made on the platform. The company has set the subscription cost at $100,000 per month.
While the service is available to high-paying clientele generally, the two outlets emphasize different primary audiences for the tool. The Washington Examiner frames the launch as a new product offering for high-paying subscribers, focusing on the technical nature of an application programming interface (API) as a data feed. In contrast, France24 explicitly identifies Wall Street traders as the intended primary users, noting that the platform's content has the potential to influence financial markets. Both outlets agree on the core facts: the service launched on Saturday, it is called Truth API, and it carries a monthly price tag of $100,000.
