Inflation API

US inflation, answered the way people actually ask: what is $100 from 1990 worth today? ($246.32.) Built on the official BLS Consumer Price Index β€” 405,747 monthly and annual values across 726 US-average series, the all-items index back to 1913 and granular categories from eggs to gasoline to rent β€” refreshed daily so each mid-month CPI release lands automatically. The calculator endpoint converts any amount between any two years or months since 1913; the rate endpoint returns year-over-year inflation for any period (2022: 8.0%, June 2022: 9.1% β€” matching BLS published figures exactly) for the headline index or any category; the history endpoint returns a century of annual inflation rates in one call; and raw CPI series are queryable for charting. A dollar from 1913 resolves to $32.52. Built for fintech and payroll products, pricing and contract-escalation tools, real-estate and salary calculators, journalism and education. Public-domain BLS data, self-hosted β€” no third-party calls at request time.
