# Exorde Intel API — LLM pointer

The Exorde Intel API turns public web and social data into structured narrative
intelligence: trending terms, volume timeseries, narrative summaries, conversation
clusters, named-entity leaderboards, evidence posts, alerts, webhooks, and editorial
reports. Three tiers: Watch (awareness), See (investigation), Know (intelligence).
