# MACRO CAL

> MACRO CAL (https://isnow.ai) — the U.S. macro economic calendar built for humans AND AI agents: every FOMC, CPI, NFP, PCE, GDP and ISM release taken first-hand from the primary source, in English and Chinese, one click from any calendar app.

Every FOMC decision, CPI print, jobs report (NFP), PCE, GDP, ISM and retail sales release, plus AI CapEx earnings from mega-cap tech. Schedules and actual readings are ingested directly from primary sources (BLS, BEA, Federal Reserve, Treasury, Census, ISM) minutes after release — no aggregator in the middle. Every event, month and indicator has a server-rendered page in English and Chinese, with history back to 2008, and the whole calendar is one click away from any calendar app as an iCal feed.

## Calendar

- [Current month, English](https://isnow.ai/en/calendar): redirects to the current month page.
- [Current month, Chinese](https://isnow.ai/zh/calendar): 中文版当月日历。
- Month pages follow `/{lang}/calendar/{YYYY-MM}` (e.g. `https://isnow.ai/en/calendar/2026-08`), where `{lang}` is `en` or `zh`. Each page lists every scheduled release of that month with its release time, importance and actual reading once published.

## Events & indicators

- Event pages follow `/{lang}/events/{slug}` (e.g. `https://isnow.ai/en/events/cpi-2026-07`): release time, official source link, actual/previous values.
- Indicator pages follow `/{lang}/indicators/{id}` (e.g. `https://isnow.ai/en/indicators/CPIAUCSL`): release schedule, latest value and the historical series, with data back to 2008.
- [Historical data & charts](https://isnow.ai/history): interactive browser for every tracked indicator.

## Subscribe

- [Subscribe on the homepage](https://isnow.ai/): leave an email, confirm it (double opt-in), and you get a personal feed URL of the form `https://isnow.ai/feed/{token}/macro-calendar.ics`.
- That URL is a standard iCal feed: paste it into Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook or any CalDAV client and it stays in sync as schedules move and actual values land.

## Machine access

- [sitemap.xml](https://isnow.ai/sitemap.xml): every month, event and indicator page in both languages, with lastmod.
- [robots.txt](https://isnow.ai/robots.txt).
- A JSON API exists under `/api/` (e.g. `/api/events`, `/api/history/{id}`). It is currently unversioned and carries no SLA — it can change without notice, so prefer the HTML pages and the iCal feed for anything durable.

## Coming soon

- Machine-readable consensus and expectations alongside every release, plus prior-value and surprise analysis shaped for AI agents to consume directly — the numbers an agent needs to reason about a print, not just the print.
