Ask your AI assistant:
"Search for balanced news coverage on climate policy and show me how left, right, and center sources frame the issue differently."
The assistant will call search_balanced_news and present synthesized perspectives from across the political spectrum.
"What is the media bias profile for The New York Times?"
The assistant will call get_source_bias and return the full bias breakdown including political lean, factual reporting, and other dimensions.
"Give me the bull and bear case for NVDA, then find the best options strategies."
The assistant will call get_ticker for market data and AI analysis, then get_top_trading_strategies for ranked strategy recommendations.
"Analyze the bias of this article: https://example.com/politics/story"
The assistant will call get_bias_from_url to return source-level and article-level bias indicators.
search_news for discovery, then get_bias_from_url for deep analysis on specific articlessearch_balanced_news with get_source_bias to understand why sources frame topics differentlyget_ticker for the fundamental view, then get_option_price or get_top_trading_strategies for actionable tradesProblem: Tool calls return empty results for very niche queries Solution: Broaden the search terms — Helium indexes mainstream and mid-tier sources, so hyper-local topics may have limited coverage
Problem: Options data unavailable for a ticker Solution: Verify the ticker has listed options — some small-cap stocks and most crypto assets do not have options markets
