What changed, and when

Fixed the "what if the Canadian dollar moves" scenarios. They were reading an exchange-rate data source that had quietly stopped updating, and now use the live one. When ODIN answers a question using the closest available data instead of an exact match, the answer now says so.

Data sources whose licences don't allow commercial redistribution no longer appear in the API's data listings. Our published accuracy still counts every prediction, including ones built on that data. Hiding a data source never removes its wins or losses from the record.

We now keep a permanent, numbered, public log of corrections. Every correction to ODIN's published prediction record gets an entry, and each entry says which way the error ran, including when it ran in our favour. Entries are never edited or deleted, only followed by newer ones.

You can now browse ODIN's predictions directly in chat. Chat counts them by exactly the same rules as the public track-record page, so the two can never disagree.

The API now declines questions that include obvious personal details, like a name or an account number. ODIN answers questions about the economy, not about individuals.

We published our policy on how the API handles your data: the content of your requests is never stored. Our logs keep only a fingerprint and a length for each request, enough to count usage but not enough to read what you asked.

The public track-record page now loads several times faster. A first visit used to take a few seconds.

Every official date ODIN relies on, like central-bank decision days and government data releases, now comes from a single calendar checked against the original sources. We built it after a July audit found that all eight of this year's hard-coded Bank of Canada decision dates were wrong. They were corrected against the Bank's own published schedule.

Fixed a problem where one failed database lookup could quietly spoil everything after it in the same answer, including in live chat. Answers now either recover cleanly or fail visibly, instead of carrying on with bad information.

The Daily Brief can now flag an early warning when incoming data starts to look like the run-up to past central-bank rate moves.

The model behind ODIN's Bank of Canada rate-decision calls was re-tuned, tested against past decisions, and switched back on.

ODIN now reads a structured history of official policy decisions: rate moves and holds, with their dates and outcomes. We also repaired its source of parliamentary committee testimony on housing and financial regulation.

The Pulse now opens as a readable daily page, with a morning brief and an overall health score for Canada's economy. Pick an industry view (real estate, banking and credit, insurance, or generalist) and it explains what is moving in your corner of the economy. Each view ends with a dated claim you can check later.

Organizations can now create and manage their own API keys from Settings. You choose an expiry from 30 days to never, and can swap in a new key at any time. The API docs now open with a one-line quickstart.

ODIN now plugs into AI assistants and agent tools that speak the open Model Context Protocol. It offers five tools there, covering questions, what-if scenarios, the economy health score, and the prediction record. The same keys and limits as the API apply.

The ODIN API is live. You can ask questions in plain language, run what-if scenarios, read the economy health score, and pull the prediction record. It is the same engine that powers the app, available over the web.

Every prediction ODIN makes is now published at odinos.ca/track-record, with its deadline and its grade, including the misses. The page updates as predictions are decided.

Official numbers get revised after they are first published. ODIN now keeps every version of roughly 2,400 Canadian economic measures exactly as each number first appeared. That makes it possible to check, honestly and after the fact, whether a call could have been made with only the information available at the time.

You can attach PDF, Word, Excel, and CSV files to a chat and ask questions about them. The original file is thrown away as soon as its text is pulled out. That text is stored encrypted, is deleted when you delete the conversation, and is kept at most 90 days no matter what.
