What you can ask for / No. 19

Find encyclopedia entries in your own words

People, places, organizations, works, and events with an entry in Wikidata or Wikipedia, and the facts the entry holds.

Some questions have already been answered by thousands of careful editors. SpecStream reads Wikidata’s structured facts and the Wikipedia articles behind them, and keeps the entry each fact came from. When an entry doesn’t say, the detail stays empty instead of being filled in from memory.

Requests to start from

Three ways to ask. Each one opens in the workspace, read into parts you can check and change.

How it reads

Take A1. Before the quote, SpecStream turns it into parts you can check and change. Edit one and the request saves as a new saved version. Anything it can’t support stays visible instead of being quietly dropped.

Use them as conditions, ask for them back, or both; the field picker in the workspace shows which work where. Mark a detail required and a result needs evidence for it before it counts. Optional details can come back empty without sinking the record.

From your agent or your code

Ask for the same list from your agent or your code. Your agent sees the price before it runs, then gets every match with the details you asked for. It works within your spending limit. Connect your agent with MCP.

What it costs

You pay for the results that match, at the rate the quote shows.

  • Standard, $0.10 a match: up to 5 facts to check or return, with no related list.
  • Expanded, $0.30 a match: up to 15 facts, plus one related list, such as a company’s jobs or a creator’s posts. 10 related records a result are included, then 10¢ for each further 10.
  • Deep, $1 a match: anything beyond Expanded.
  • A person’s email, +$0.10; a phone, +$0.25 on top of the rate, when the request asks for one. A likely email counts and says likely. Rows without it pay their rate alone.
  • Your own list, $0.05 a row checked. A row that matches pays its rate instead.

Then what?

Compare them side by side, one field at a time. Or export them to CSV, Excel, JSON, or HTML, share a snapshot with an expiry date, and pick the work up later from wherever you left it.

Keep digging

Or flip through the whole crate and ask for any of them the same way.
