# Get latest forensic news feed

> Retrieve the most recent AI-detected news entries across all projects — a global
    forensics news feed.

    Each entry represents a news event discovered during the weekly AI scan of 100+
    sources using Gemini with Google Search grounding. Entries include the key event
    summary, market impact assessment, source URL, category, and detection metadata.

    **New this week:** The `is_new_this_week` flag is `true` only for entries where
    the project has genuinely new findings (after semantic deduplication against
    previous scans).

    **Filtering:** Use `category` to filter by event type.

    Each entry is enriched with project context (name, country, proponent, registry).

    ## Authentication


    All endpoints require an API key passed in the `X-API-KEY` header:


    ```bash

    curl -H "X-API-KEY: vcm_live_your_key_here" https://api.vcm.fyi/v1/projects/

    ```


    Get your API key at
    [app.vcm.fyi/settings/api](https://app.vcm.fyi/settings/api).


    ## Rate Limits

    Rate limit headers are included in every response:

    - `X-RateLimit-Limit` — Your limit per minute

    - `X-RateLimit-Remaining` — Remaining requests in current window

    - `X-RateLimit-Reset` — Unix timestamp when the window resets


    ## Pagination


    List endpoints return paginated results:


    ```json

    {
      "pagination": {
        "total_entries": 11234,
