Preftrade .md tool links 1,800 sources

A May 22 post on X said Preftrade had released a “.md file tool” that gives AI agents “instant access” to 1,800 live data sources without APIs. The post, from the account @slash1sol, cited Polymarket, satellite imagery feeds and SEC filings as examples of the sources available through the tool. Preference Labs, which operates at pref.trade, describes its product as “structured world data for AI agents” and says the platform offers more than 670 capabilities connecting agents to live prediction markets, flight tracking, global news and economic data. The company’s public site did not, in the material available through web search, independently confirm the “1,800 live data sources” figure or publish a product page for the specific “.md file tool” described in the X post. (pref.trade) ### What exactly was claimed in the May 22 post? The May 22 X post said the tool lets AI agents reach live data “without APIs,” framing the product as a markdown-file-based interface rather than a conventional developer integration. The post named Polymarket, satellite imagery and SEC filings as sample feeds. The date matters because the claim surfaced on Thursday, May 22, and has so far circulated primarily through social media rather than a detailed company announcement visible in search results. (pref.trade) ### What can be verified from Preference Labs’ own materials? Preference Labs’ website says its system is built for AI agents and quantitative research, and it advertises access to live data categories including prediction markets, flight tracking, news and economic data. Third-party listings for the company’s agent tools on LLMBase and Skywork also describe “670+ capabilities” and daily tool-call limits, broadly matching the company site’s positioning around agent-oriented research access. (pref.trade) The company site does not appear, based on available search results, to spell out a markdown-file mechanism, nor does it publicly enumerate the claimed 1,800 sources in the snippets reviewed. That means the social-media claim is only partly verifiable from public company materials now visible online. ### Why do Polymarket and SEC filings matter in this claim? Polymarket publishes developer documentation for real-time market data and trading integrations, making it a recognizable example of the kind of live source an agent-focused research tool might tap. (pref.trade) The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission separately provides public access to filings through its EDGAR search system, another source category named in the May 22 post. Those examples also help explain the pitch. Prediction-market data, regulatory filings and imagery feeds are the kinds of inputs commonly used in trading, due diligence and event-driven research workflows, which are the use cases Preference Labs’ public materials point toward. That connection is an inference from the source categories the company and the post both mention. ### What remains unconfirmed? The “1,800 live data sources” count remains unverified from a primary company document located through web search. (docs.polymarket.com) The existence of a newly released standalone “.md file tool” also remains tied to the May 22 X post, rather than to a clearly indexed product page, documentation page or company release found in search results. As of May 23, Preference Labs’ public site remained the clearest primary source available through search, and it listed 670-plus capabilities rather than 1,800 sources. (pref.trade) Any fuller accounting would likely depend on a company documentation page, product repository or a direct statement from Preference Labs naming the markdown tool and enumerating its connected sources.
