PEPIndex turns U.S. trade-policy pressure into a daily, scored, API-ready signal. Different teams consume it differently — early warning for sourcing, a structured risk factor for macro models, and statutory-authority tracking for compliance.

Sourcing

Supply Chain Tariff Risk

Sourcing & procurement teams

Early warning of tariff pressure before it hits sourcing costs, with sector-level impact ahead of supplier renegotiation.

Markets

Tariff Policy Market Risk

Macro & quant analysts

A daily trade-policy risk factor: composite pressure score, TACO-trade return analysis, and S&P 500 / VIX / sector-ETF correlations.

Compliance

Trade Compliance Monitoring

Legal & compliance teams

Statutory authority (IEEPA, Section 301/232), Federal Register EO linkage, eCFR outcomes, and court rulings per event.

Public sector and government workforce

State and local finance offices, federal contractors and public-sector employers can follow the presidential threats aimed at government workers alongside the payroll and turnover data that shows what happened: federal, state and local government payrolls and federal job openings, hires, quits and layoffs, with change since January 2025 — free at /api/v1/labor/government and on the dashboard's Live Data tab.

The signal behind every use case

Each team reads the same daily measurement a different way. Here is what that measurement looks like right now.

Every use case draws on the same methodology, data sources, and REST API. The free endpoints — the index, snapshot, branch reaction and government workforce trends — need no key: start there, then layer in events, tariff rates, and economic-impact data. Common questions are answered in the FAQ.
