About ODE EQUINOX

Global economics intelligence. Built by Llewellyn Systems Inc. Free, transparent, and powered by the world's most authoritative public data sources.

Mission

Where all the world's data meets.

ODE EQUINOX was built on a simple belief: economic data should be accessible to everyone. Not locked behind Bloomberg terminals or expensive subscriptions. The world's best economic datasets — World Bank, IMF, FRED — are public. EQUINOX makes them navigable.

Caching Policy
24-Hour Cache TTL

All API responses are cached for 24 hours on the server side to respect free-tier rate limits and ensure fast load times. Economic indicators are updated annually by their sources — hourly polling would be wasteful. FRED macro data (interest rates, CPI) refreshes every hour to catch monetary policy changes.
