Usage & Features

"What's the difference between tools and playbooks?"

Tools return specific data points (e.g., "What's Bitcoin's RSI?" → "37.2, oversold"). Playbooks orchestrate multiple tools into comprehensive analysis (e.g., "Analyze Bitcoin" → 1000-word research report with technical + derivatives + narratives + outlook + recommendations). Use playbooks when making decisions. Use tools when you need specific data quickly.


"How often is data updated?"

Data freshness varies by source:

  • Technical analysis: Real-time (few minutes lag)

  • Derivatives data: Real-time from exchanges

  • On-chain metrics: Near real-time (5-15 minute lag)

  • News & events: Real-time aggregation

  • Trending data: Updated every 5-15 minutes


"Can I use TrueNorth for live trading?"

  • Research and due diligence

  • Validating trade setups
