FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the AI agent access Benzinga's real-time news feed?

The agent uses Benzinga's News API with the updatedSince parameter for real-time ingestion. When a customer asks about news, the agent queries by ticker symbol and returns the latest headlines, full article content, and sentiment tags. News is fetched live with minimal latency.

Can the agent filter earnings data by specific stocks in my watchlist?

Yes. The agent uses the tickers parameter in Benzinga's Earnings API to filter by up to 50 symbols. You can configure default watchlists or let customers specify tickers dynamically. The agent returns only relevant earnings dates, estimates, and actuals.

What Benzinga API permissions does Tars require?

Tars needs read access to the News, Calendar, and Ratings APIs you subscribe to. Enter your Benzinga API key in the Tars dashboard. We never store credentials beyond the encrypted connection. You can revoke access anytime from your Benzinga developer portal.

Does Tars cache or store Benzinga financial data?

No. Tars queries Benzinga APIs in real-time during conversations. Financial news, earnings data, and ratings are fetched live and used only to respond to the current query. We do not maintain a separate database of Benzinga content.

Can the agent handle questions about stocks not covered by my Benzinga subscription?

The agent only returns data your subscription covers. If a customer asks about an unsupported ticker, the agent explains the limitation and offers alternatives. You can configure fallback responses or escalate to human advisors.

How is this different from embedding a Benzinga widget on my site?

Widgets display static feeds. Tars AI Agents have conversations, answering specific questions like 'When does NVDA report?' with precise data. The agent filters, interprets, and presents information contextually. Plus, Tars works across web, WhatsApp, and integrates with your CRM.

What happens if Benzinga's API is temporarily unavailable?

The agent handles API errors gracefully. If Benzinga is unreachable, the agent informs the customer of the temporary issue and offers to escalate to a human advisor or retry shortly. No silent failures or broken responses.

Can the agent combine Benzinga data with other tools like my CRM?

Yes. Tars connects to 600+ tools. Your agent can pull a client's portfolio from your CRM, then fetch Benzinga earnings data for those specific holdings. Personalized financial insights delivered in one conversation.
