Press Monitor's Wikidata NewsFlow API retrieves entity-linked news by Wikidata ID, eliminating keyword ambiguity for knowledge-graph, AI agent, and compliance monitoring workflows.
Wikidata NewsFlow API & MCP Server - Entity-Linked News Retrieval by Press Monitor
Wikidata NewsFlow lets development teams, analysts, and AI agents retrieve news directly by Wikidata ID - replacing noisy keyword searches with precise, entity-resolved retrieval across 20+ languages.
The Problem with Keyword-Based News Monitoring
Keyword monitoring breaks down when entities share names, appear in multiple languages, or require disambiguation. A search for "Mercury" returns results about planets, car brands, and chemical elements. Wikidata IDs eliminate this noise by anchoring retrieval to a stable, globally unique identifier for each entity.
How Wikidata NewsFlow Solves It
This service lets you retrieve headlines, briefs, or full-text articles for any Wikidata-linked entity - companies, executives, countries, cities, products, institutions, events, and topics. Because retrieval is tied to a stable identifier rather than a text string, your results are precise from the first query.
Concrete Use Case: Compliance and PEP Monitoring
A compliance team monitoring politically exposed persons (PEPs) stores Wikidata IDs for each individual on their watchlist. Each day, the system retrieves briefs for those entities, filters by relevant languages and geographies, and feeds results into a case-management platform. New sanctions-related coverage is flagged automatically - with zero false matches from individuals who happen to share the same name.
Who Is It For?
Developers building knowledge-graph products, entity pages, profile systems, and research tools
Compliance and risk analysts monitoring companies, PEPs, and institutions with stable IDs
Content teams enriching biographies, company pages, issue hubs, and topic dashboards
AI engineering teams that need entity-aware retrieval for research agents and assistant workflows
Key Capabilities
Retrieve news by wikidata_id instead of relying on ambiguous text search
Monitor companies, people, locations, institutions, products, and topics in one structured model
Combine Wikidata retrieval with boolean search, geography, and language filters
Access headlines, briefs, and full text according to the depth your workflow requires
Built-in translation across 20+ languages for global monitoring
Access the same entity-aware workflow through REST API, MCP Server, and web app
AI Agent and MCP Integration
The included MCP Server allows AI agents to pull entity-linked news directly within their reasoning loop. An agent can resolve an entity to its Wikidata ID, retrieve recent coverage, and produce a briefing, profile summary, or investigation note - all without custom glue code. Combine Wikidata retrieval with other ontologies such as exchange MICs, industries, and geographies for multi-dimensional research pipelines.
Getting Started

AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on the duration and terms of your contract with the vendor, and additional usage. You pay upfront or in installments according to your contract terms with the vendor. This entitles you to a specified quantity of use for the contract duration. Usage-based pricing is in effect for overages or additional usage not covered in the contract. These charges are applied on top of the contract price. If you choose not to renew or replace your contract before the contract end date, access to your entitlements will expire.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.

You buy this API and MCP server access as a contract, priced by units across four tiers. Micro Tier fits individual users and light testing, with limited daily searches and alerts and core endpoints only. Starter Tier raises query and alert limits and adds full-text articles, translations, and scheduled digests. Business Tier and Enterprise Tier both support high-volume, cross-region queries, full API and MCP integration, enriched entity and sentiment data, and priority support. Tiers scale upward by usage capacity and included capabilities. You pick the tier matching your query volume, regions, and integration needs.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one billing unit represent across these tiers?
A unit represents your subscription capacity at the chosen tier level. Each tier defines its own daily search and alert limits, endpoint access, and integration scope. You buy the number of units matching your team's expected query volume. The unit reflects capacity allowance, not a single API call or user seat.
What happens if I reach my tier's daily search or alert limit?
Each tier sets fixed daily query and alert limits. Micro Tier caps searches and alerts tightly. Higher tiers raise these limits. When you hit a limit, you move to a tier with more capacity. Tier changes are not automatic; you select the tier that fits your usage.
Can I cancel this contract subscription and get a refund for unused capacity?
For committed terms, fees already billed are non-refundable unless required by law or agreed in writing. You cancel before the next renewal to stop future charges. No credit is owed for unused alerts, unused API capacity, or reduced usage after activation. Marketplace purchases may follow separate terms.
