an api

An API, or Application Programming Interface, is like a waiter in a restaurant. Imagine you, as a customer, go to a restaurant and place your order with the waiter. The waiter takes your order to the kitchen and retrieves the food. Then, the waiter brings the food to your table. In this scenario, the waiter represents the API, acting as a communication channel between two parties. The tee e api is a communication channel between a database that holds historical data and an application or website that wants to display that data.

the data

Our database encompasses contemporary history, which pertains to events that have occurred within the last 70 years. We call this shared recollection of events and experiences within a society the collective memory. We have categorized the events into different aspects, including news events, radio songs, and cinema films. Additionally, each event has been augmented with a score to indicate its impact and a label denoting the associated emotion. You have the flexibility to filter based on any of these criteria to align perfectly with your specific requirements.

why you need it

Unlock the power of collective memory. By fetching historical context for a specific date and displaying it alongside or before personal memories from the same date, your application will trigger more powerful memories, and strengthen the emotional bond between your brand and your audience.

how to use it

Your application or website takes the initiative to request historical data for a specific moment. The API responds with the data, and your application displays that data as desired.
