Models are only as reliable as the data they’re built on

The open web is vast, but noisy, and in some cases, unverified. Aggregated content lacks consistency and context. Rights are hard to research, let alone secure.

If you’re relying on scraped or aggregated sources for real-world event data, your models — and the decisions they inform — may be at risk.

AP Source Data grounds your models in a foundation of facts

We give you direct access to the world’s most trusted source of machine-readable content on real-word events, structured and enriched for training, RAG and display by AI and data models of all kinds.
