Events Aggregator API

Events Aggregator API

Multiple data streams in just one API

We all know how important hard data is when it comes to making solid business decisions. But there’s nothing more time-consuming than trawling through screeds of unstructured and unprocessed data, trying to figure out which bits are relevant to you and your business. (Well, pulling hundreds of prickles out of the soles of your feet after accidentally stumbling into a gorse bush might take longer, though perhaps still be less painful.)

PredictHQ takes the hassle out of sourcing event data so you enjoy the benefits of data that can really make a difference to your bottom line, without the hassle of finding it in the first place. Our intuitive API makes it easy to find out when scheduled and unscheduled events are happening, where. And if you can think of an event, we probably have it, including scheduled events like school holidays, public holidays, concerts, sporting fixtures and conferences, right through to unscheduled events like natural disasters, severe weather, airport delays - even terror. We collate and aggregate multiple sources into a single source, then rank them in order of importance so you can predict how likely they’re going to impact your profit margins, then come up with a plan to make the most of these events (or mitigate their potential negative impact). Download and store our data so you can search and analyze your own local copy instead.

Ranked Events

Not sure what events matter most? Don’t worry - we’ve sorted them for you

PredictHQ’s API gives you access to millions of scheduled and unscheduled global real world events across 18 categories - and counting - and enables you to find relevant events to your business with a simple REST call. We don’t simply tell you what events are happening when, though. Our smart in-house ranking algorithm assigns a numerical rank to every piece of event data we store, so you can filter from major to minor events and see at a glance which ones you should pay special attention to. The greatest benefit for users is our cleansed and ranked, single source data stream, which gives you the power to make great business decisions based on events that have happened in the past or that will be happening in the future. Leverage increased demand associated with major concerts and sporting events by allocating more rooms at higher rates, sending more drivers to venues, creating marketing strategies and adjusting your pricing plan. Incorporate our data with your location-based apps then tell your customers what events are happening near them, wherever they happen to be. When unexpected events occur, send push notifications to your app users to give them information or specials. PredictHQ gives businesses the power to leverage events by providing them with intel that’s relevant to them.

Making Flat Event Data Intelligent

We’re not simply in the business of sourcing event data from multiple sources and creating a simple data stream that’s easy to use. We also enrich every piece of data we store with more data, transforming flat data into something that’s truly intelligent. Enrichment isn’t the only additional piece of the puzzle though. We capture, clean and maintain disparate data sources, including de-duplication, so your developers save precious time and can focus on their core capabilities. Finding data that’s specific to your business is easy too, thanks to a simple REST API. Lookup events by searching within a geographical radius, using IATA codes or geographical place names. You can query multiple categories and locations at the same time, and get JSON responses. Integrate our data with any platform thanks to our easy-to-use API. We also have Python and JavaScript SDKs available. We use the OAuth 2.0 standard for authentication, and access tokens are required to grant application access to the tools available in the API. Use our API to find relevant events to display in your app, or download and store our events to use in your own data modeling and analysis. It’s totally up to you.
