How Macro Pulse Works
Macro Pulse scans Bangladesh's contemporaneous information environment daily — policy announcements, news flows from major outlets, market signals, and institutional actions — and classifies them into structured economic signals using a keyword-based classifier mapped to 16 economic channels.
Unlike retrospective macro data (which arrives with weeks or months of lag), these signals capture constraint changes as they emerge in real time. Each signal is tagged with a direction (tightening or easing), confidence level, time horizon, the underlying economic mechanism, who should care, and expected downstream effects.
The 16 monitored channels span the full macroeconomic landscape of Bangladesh:
The automated pipeline runs on GitHub Actions and publishes updated signals daily. Data is available in JSON and CSV formats. The public feed covers the most recent 10 days; institutional subscribers receive the full historical dataset.
