GNews vs New York Times
GNews mirrors Google News rankings across roughly 80,000 sources, exposing search and top-headlines endpoints filterable by category, language, and country. The free plan is capped at 100 requests/day with articles delayed 12 hours and results limited to the last 30 days; paid tiers add same-day articles, a multi-year archive back to 2020, and higher daily caps. Every response is JSON, authenticated with a single API-key query parameter.
The NYT Developer Network exposes ten separate APIs (Article Search, Top Stories, Books, Most Popular, and more) over a shared API-key scheme, all returning JSON. Registration and usage are completely free, but the terms restrict every API to non-commercial projects only — selling access, running ads, or shipping the data inside a paid product all require a separate licensing deal through NYT Licensing.
