SentryDock vs Truth API

SentryDock vs Truth API: two ways to monitor Truth Social

Trump Media & Technology Group announced Truth API on 16 July 2026 as its first data-licensing product: a business-to-business feed of posts from the highest-ranking Truth Social accounts, aimed at high-frequency and algorithmic trading firms. TMTG said the feed would go live for institutional customers on 1 August 2026, deliver posts in milliseconds, run 24/7, and include an archive back to 2022. The official release did not list a price. It directed buyers to licensing@tmediatech.com.

The short answer

Truth API is Trump Media’s licensed, machine-readable feed of posts from the highest-ranking Truth Social accounts. TMTG has not published a public price list and directs buyers to its licensing team. SentryDock is a different product: it watches Trump’s Truth Social posts without an account, filters for the topics you describe, and can send alerts to email, SMS, Slack, Teams or Discord within seconds, from $30/month. If you run an automated desk that needs a millisecond feed, Truth API is the product TMTG sells. If you need to know when a tariff, Fed or China post lands and act on it as a person, SentryDock offers a self-serve alerting product.

TMTG has not published a public rate card for Truth API. Its official launch materials direct prospective customers to licensing@tmediatech.com, so the current price comparison is quote-only institutional licensing versus SentryDock’s published self-serve plans.

SentryDock is not a millisecond firehose and does not claim to be. It is an AI monitoring service: describe the topics that matter (tariffs, China, the Fed, energy, Iran), and it watches Truth Social plus news, X, Telegram and Reddit, then can alert you within seconds on a real-time monitor. Starter is $30/month. That is the comparison this page makes, two products for two jobs, with the money on the table.

How we ranked these tools

We compared the two on the job each is built for: latency (milliseconds versus seconds), what you actually receive (raw licensed posts versus filtered alerts with market context), who can buy it (licensed institutional feed versus a self-serve plan), and price transparency. Truth API facts come from TMTG’s 16 July 2026 press release filed with the SEC. SentryDock prices are the live Starter, Pro and Ultra plans on sentrydock.com as of 20 August 2026.

We do not estimate Truth API pricing because TMTG has not published a rate card. We also do not claim SentryDock is faster than Truth API. Milliseconds and minutes are different products.

What Truth API actually is

TMTG’s 16 July 2026 release called Truth API “a new business-to-business data feed that provides licensed, real-time access to posts from the highest-ranking Truth Social accounts.” McGurn said markets already move on those posts, and that the product is for firms “most impacted by the cost of a delay in information,” including high-frequency and algorithmic trading firms that want a low-latency, machine-readable feed rather than manual tracking.

TMTG said the feed delivers posts in milliseconds, is expected to run continuously, and includes a historical archive back to 2022. Its official launch materials position the product for financial-services partners and direct prospective customers to licensing@tmediatech.com.

Where Truth API is the better choice

If your desk is built around automated trading and a few milliseconds of lead time, Truth API is the official licensed firehose TMTG is selling. SentryDock will not beat that latency. It also will not give you a machine-readable tick-by-tick feed of every top-account post to plug into an execution stack. Buy Truth API if that is the job. TMTG’s stated contact is licensing@tmediatech.com.

Where SentryDock is the better choice

  • Price transparency: SentryDock publishes self-serve plans from $30/month, while Truth API requires a licensing quote.
  • You want alerts, not a raw feed: SentryDock filters Trump posts against the topic you describe, so a tariff post pages you and a rally endorsement does not.
  • You do not want a Truth Social account or an institutional licensing process.
  • You also need the rest of the story: SentryDock watches news, X, Telegram and Reddit around the same event, with translation from supported languages.
  • Delivery to email, SMS, Slack, Teams or Discord, plus a daily briefing.

Price, stated plainly

SentryDock Starter is $30/month, with one real-time monitor. Pro is $100/month with three real-time monitors. Ultra is $300/month with ten. Every plan includes unlimited hourly and daily monitoring. Those are the live published prices on sentrydock.com as of 20 August 2026.

Truth API has no published list price. Contact TMTG at licensing@tmediatech.com for a current quote. If TMTG publishes a public rate card, this page will be updated.
