How fresh is it, and where does the data come from?

The fastest source behind this answer can change every 15 minutes, so every response carries a refresh_after timestamp — right now it would be 2026-09-17T11:15:00.000Z. Schedule the next call on that value rather than on a guess.

Method version 0.1.0 · serving cache 30 days · every response carries a result_id you can resolve at /v1/provenance.
