- Trump Media to launch Truth API for faster access to market-moving Truth Social posts.
- Paid feed targets Wall Street firms using algorithmic and high-frequency trading.
- Truth API offers millisecond delivery and a post archive ahead of its August 1 launch.
Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) is launching a paid data service that gives banks, hedge funds, and algorithmic trading firms faster access to posts from the most influential Truth Social accounts, including US President Donald Trump.
The service, called Truth API, will launch on August 1 and is designed to deliver posts in milliseconds, well ahead of standard push notifications. The company says several institutional customers have already signed up.
Truth API Targets Market-Moving Information
Truth API will provide licensed, real-time access to posts from the platform’s 10 most influential accounts. The feed is aimed at organizations where even a brief delay in receiving information can affect trading decisions.
According to TMTG, the API offers a machine-readable feed for high-frequency and algorithmic trading firms that previously relied on manually monitoring Truth Social or scraping data from the platform.
In addition to live updates, the service includes 24/7 coverage and a searchable archive of posts dating back to 2022, allowing firms to build trading models and analyze historical sentiment.
Interim CEO Kevin McGurn said Truth API marks the company’s first move into data licensing and is expected to become a recurring revenue source. He added that “markets already move on Truth Social posts,” making faster access valuable to institutional clients.
Trump’s Posts Have Moved Markets
President Trump’s Truth Social account has become one of the most closely watched sources for financial markets, as he frequently announces policy decisions on the platform before anywhere else.
His posts on tariffs, trade restrictions with China, and developments involving Iran have triggered sharp moves across global markets.
On April 9, US stocks rallied after Trump announced a 90-day pause on many new tariffs through Truth Social. Earlier that day, he also posted that it was “a great time to buy,” shortly before markets surged nearly 10%, marking the S&P 500’s biggest one-day gain since 2008.
Unlike many official statements, several recent policy announcements were published only on Truth Social and not on Trump’s X account, making the platform a key source for traders tracking the administration.
New Revenue Stream for Trump Media
The launch comes as Trump Media looks to diversify its business beyond advertising and social media.
The company has struggled to generate consistent profits despite raising significant cash after going public. It reported a $406 million net loss in the first quarter of 2026 and has previously expanded into bitcoin investments while exploring other business opportunities.
McGurn said firms have been scraping Truth Social content without permission for months. TMTG plans to make those methods more difficult, encouraging institutions to subscribe to the official licensed feed instead.
