Find forecasts

Search forecasts by text

Find forecasts about a topic when you don't know their title or ID.

Send the topic as search on GET /questions:

curl --get "https://api.mantic.com/questions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  --data-urlencode "search=UK inflation at the end of 2026" \
  --data-urlencode "show_forecasts=true"

Results are ranked by meaning, not keywords, so an exact title match may not come first.

An abridged response looks like this:

{
  "questions": [
    {
      "id": 123,
      "title": "Will UK CPI inflation be below 2.5% in December 2026?",
      "tags": ["Economics", "United Kingdom"]
    }
  ],
  "next": null
}

A result's id is its question_id. Search returns a single page of up to 25 results.

Narrow the results

Add a tag filter:

curl --get "https://api.mantic.com/questions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  --data-urlencode "search=inflation below target" \
  --data-urlencode 'filter={"tags":["Economics"]}' \
  --data-urlencode "show_forecasts=true"

To list every matching forecast rather than a ranked shortlist, filter and sort without search.
