AI Agents Now Drive Half of St. Louis Fed FRED Visits

AI13 days ago

The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis is experiencing a shift in how users interact with its public economic archives. Artificial intelligence agents now account for about half of all visits to the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) platform, according to a report from Bloomberg. This trend marks a transition in the consumption of the curated data service, which has provided free public access to American economic infrastructure records since 1991.

The change in traffic coincides with the platform's publication of 16 data sets from fintech company Ramp regarding corporate AI adoption. These metrics track the relationship between AI spending, productivity, and effects on job creation and economic growth. Ramp employee Ara Kharazian, a lifelong user of the service, noted that contributing the firm's proprietary spending insights was a personal goal.
