# Data Sources

> Where OpenKol pulls social and market data.

OpenKol is built on **public data** and deterministic rules.

Every analysis is derived from:

* public post metadata (social)
* market data (on-chain/DEX context)

***

## Social sources

OpenKol analyzes public posts from:

* **X**
* **Telegram**

Posts are normalized into a common schema so scoring is consistent across platforms.

Typical normalized fields include:

* author / handle
* timestamp
* engagement counts (views, likes, reposts, replies, etc. where available)
* content text (for symbol extraction)

***

## Market data sources

OpenKol pulls market data from a DEX analytics provider for:

* token and pair discovery
* liquidity snapshots
* OHLC candles across multiple resolutions (e.g., 5m → 1d)

This market layer is used to compute:

* ROI and drawdowns after the call timestamp
* durability/time-above thresholds
* liquidity context at call time

***

## What is not used

* No private signals
* No manual “override scoring”
* No hidden adjustments

OpenKol’s goal is verification you can reproduce and share.
