Every admitted source is tagged with the method that produced today's value. Real publications carry weight 1.0; frequency-aligned upsamples 0.95; nowcasts 0.85; statistical-fidelity-gated synth 0.70. The composite GAI integrates each contribution at its calibrated weight.
Why these lists are shown here
The two boards below are onboarding telemetry only.
Sources listed as joining or in snapshot-API onboarding
are not fused into the composite GAI, and are not
among the inputs used by the cold run nor by today's
warm/cron run. They contribute zero weight until they are
formally admitted — i.e. they accumulate 30 real
observations (joining) or 30 daily real-stamps
(single-snapshot APIs). Once admitted they
enter the panel at REAL weight 1.0 and start contributing
to GAI / GAI-x / GAI-y on the next daily cycle. The
countdown progress shown per tile is purely an onboarding
indicator; it does not affect the current index.
Joining promotion countdown
Sources with at least one real observation but fewer than 30 in window. Each tile shows real-observation accrual progress and an estimated time-to-admission based on the source's native cadence.
Snapshot-API onboarding
Single-snapshot APIs accumulating a daily real-stamp counter. Each source becomes joining as soon as the stamp ticker reaches 1, then admitted on day 30.
Constellation
Each tile is a tracked index sized by its z-magnitude and shaded by regime. Click any tile to drill into the full chart.

Each category aggregates indices feeding the GAI from one domain.

APOCALYPSE: A Multi-Agent Forecasting System for the Global Apocalypse Index
The public technical white paper is being revised. The updated edition will cover the B31 architecture (4312-channel panel, 16 agents, signal-side instruments, REAL / FREQ_ALIGN / NOWCAST / SYNTH provenance weighting, GAI-x and GAI-y sub-indices) and the warm-resume daily publication cadence. It will be re-published here once finalised.

APOCALYPSE is the original work of Prof. Dr. Stelios Bekiros. It is an independent multi-source intelligence system that estimates planetary and human-system stress and emits a calibrated readout in three coupled dimensions:
GAI — the headline Global Apocalypse Index: a composite, calibrated estimate of present-state stress across the full tracked universe.
GAI-x — the forward-looking projection: where the system is heading on the near-term horizon, conditioned on the current state.
GAI-y — the volatility / regime-shift signal: how unstable the present configuration is, and the likelihood of a regime change.
Together, GAI, GAI-x and GAI-y form a single readout — level, direction, and turbulence — rather than a single number in isolation.
How values get here
Rolling-window observations are gathered from every tracked source across the public-data universe.
Inputs are normalised, gap-filled, and reconciled into a unified state-vector at a shared cadence.
An ensemble of specialist neural agents trains and backtests on the rolling window under cross-validated supervision.
Outputs are fused into the three dimensions — present state (GAI), forecast (GAI-x), and volatility / regime (GAI-y) — and calibrated against held-out validation slices.
Each daily cycle must pass model-quality gates (discrimination, calibration, false-alarm rate) before promotion; a failed run is rolled back and the previous canonical state is retained.
The dashboard refuses to publish without a fresh, validated model-run manifest signed by the calibration gate.
Editorial principles
Transparency of inputs. Every tracked index links back to its publicly citable publisher.
No single-factor dominance. The Index is composite by design.
Calibration over hyperbole.
Not financial advice.
