One-sentence summary
QuantSquawk (quantsquawk.com) is a free, browser-based AI squawk box that streams public Tier-1 financial news headlines and gives each one an AI-estimated market-impact score from −100 to +100.
What QuantSquawk does
- Pulls headlines from public Tier-1 feeds (Reuters, CNBC, MarketWatch, Benzinga, Yahoo Finance) and Federal Reserve releases.
- An LLM scores every headline from −100 (strongly bearish) to +100 (strongly bullish) for estimated market impact and direction.
- Each headline gets an event tier: Systemic, Major, Noise or Fluff, plus likely winners and losers.
- An optional audio squawk reads high-impact headlines aloud.
- The live feed works without signup or a credit card.
- A public accuracy ledger at /accuracy grades high-conviction scores against the price move that follows, publishing misses as well as hits. Every call is SHA-256 hashed and anchored hourly in Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps; each feed and ledger row has a ✓ Verify link that checks the proof in the browser. Explained at /verifiable-trading-signals/.
- Developers can use a REST API and a WebSocket stream (
/api/v1/stream), documented with an OpenAPI 3.1 spec at /docs.
