GENE-Frankfurter: Live and Historical Currency Exchange Rates for Your AI

GENE-Frankfurter gives your AI assistant and Feluda Flows direct access to live and historical foreign exchange rate data sourced from the European Central Bank — one of the most trusted and widely referenced rate providers in the world. With this gene installed, your AI can retrieve today's exchange rates for any supported currency pair, look up rates for any past date going back decades, convert any amount between currencies, analyse rate trends across custom date ranges, and calculate statistical summaries such as average, minimum, maximum, and percentage change — all in a single, always-available capability layer inside your Feluda application.

Whether you are building financial tools, automating multi-currency reporting, enriching business data with rate context, or simply need your AI to reason confidently about money and exchange rates, GENE-Frankfurter gives you immediate, reliable access to 30 currencies backed by ECB reference data — with no account, no API key, and nothing to configure before you start.

What can I do with GENE-Frankfurter enabled?

Once the gene is connected, your AI can check the current exchange rate between any two supported currencies and get rates for a whole basket of currencies at once with a single call. It can look up the exact rate on any specific date in the past — from yesterday to many years ago — enabling precise historical comparisons. It can convert any amount from one currency into one or many target currencies using that day's ECB reference rate, and immediately show the converted result. It can retrieve a full day-by-day rate series over any period you define, or from any start date all the way through to today. It can also compute per-currency statistics across any historical window — minimum rate, maximum rate, average rate, opening and closing rate, total change, and percentage change — making it straightforward for your AI to summarise rate behaviour over weeks, months, or years. Every operation is logged to a local history database, so your AI can refer back to previous lookups and build on prior results without making duplicate requests.

What tools does GENE-Frankfurter include?

GENE-Frankfurter comes with two powerful, production-ready tools. Every tool supports a help call that returns an immediate, plain-language summary of what that tool does, what parameters it accepts, and example uses — so your AI always knows exactly what to do before making a call.

ToolWhat it does
Frankfurter RatesThe core exchange rate tool. Retrieves the full list of all 30 supported currencies with their names. Fetches the latest ECB reference rates for any base currency against any combination of target currencies. Looks up the official rate for any specific past date — the ECB nearest trading day is returned when weekends or public holidays are requested. Converts any amount from a base currency into one or more target currencies using that day's live rate, returning each conversion result with the rate applied and the calculated amount. Every rate lookup and conversion is logged to the local history database for future reference.
Frankfurter Time SeriesThe date-range analysis tool. Retrieves a complete day-by-day rate series between any start date and end date for any base currency and target symbol set — returning the full chronological rate table. Supports open-ended series from any start date through to today's most recent available rate. Also computes statistical summaries over any date range: for each requested currency symbol it returns the minimum rate, maximum rate, average rate, first and last rates in the period, absolute change, and percentage change — all rounded and ready for immediate use in reports, comparisons, or downstream analysis.

What is the data source behind GENE-Frankfurter?

GENE-Frankfurter is powered by Frankfurter, an open exchange rate API that publishes the official daily reference rates issued by the European Central Bank. The ECB publishes these rates every working day and they are used globally as a neutral, authoritative reference — by financial institutions, accounting systems, government agencies, and international businesses. Frankfurter makes those rates freely accessible with no authentication, no rate-limiting sign-up, and no commercial restrictions. GENE-Frankfurter brings that data directly into your AI and automation workflows.

No account or credentials required

GENE-Frankfurter is ready to use the moment it is installed. There is no API key to obtain, no account to register, and no credentials to manage. Both tools perform read-only access to publicly available ECB reference data. Install the gene, connect it to your AI, and start working with exchange rate data immediately.

Settings you can configure

GENE-Frankfurter exposes several settings from the Feluda Settings page that let you tune how the gene behaves without changing anything in your workflow.

SettingDescription
User AgentThe identifier sent with every request. The default correctly identifies requests as coming from Feluda and is appropriate for all users.
Base URLThe API endpoint used for all rate data requests. The default points to the standard Frankfurter service. Change this only if you are running a self-hosted Frankfurter instance.
Default Base CurrencyThe currency used as the base when no base is specified in a request. Defaults to EUR. Change this to your home currency if you work primarily in a different currency such as USD, GBP, or JPY.
Max Tokens In ResponseControls the maximum size of a single tool response before the gene automatically splits it into readable pages. Adjust this to match the context window of the AI model you are using — larger values return more data per call.
Store Raw ResponsesWhen enabled, the raw rate data received from the API is saved locally in your dataspace. Useful for inspection and auditing. Leave disabled in everyday use to keep your dataspace clean.
History Retention DaysHow many days of lookup history to keep in the local database. Records older than this threshold are removed when history is pruned. The default keeps 30 days of lookups.

Every tool has built-in help

Every tool in GENE-Frankfurter has a built-in help case. When your AI calls any tool with the help option, it immediately receives a structured description of what that tool does, all the parameters it accepts, which are required and which are optional, and a summary of every available operation. Your AI never has to guess what a tool needs — it can always ask the tool to explain itself first, and then proceed with exactly the right call. This makes GENE-Frankfurter reliable even when working with models that have never encountered the gene before.

How GENE-Frankfurter works inside Feluda Flows

GENE-Frankfurter becomes significantly more powerful when wired into Feluda Flows. Both tools can be connected into multi-step automated pipelines, turning what would otherwise be manual lookups into repeatable, scalable workflows that run without any human intervention.

  • Multi-currency invoice enrichment: Build a flow that takes a list of invoice amounts in their source currencies, fetches the ECB reference rate for each on the invoice date, converts every amount to your reporting currency, and outputs a fully reconciled multi-currency report — ready for accounting or audit.
  • Daily rate digest: Connect the latest rates tool in a scheduled flow that runs each morning, retrieves the current ECB reference rates for your most-watched currency pairs, and delivers a structured daily briefing — so your AI always has fresh rate context at the start of each working session.
  • Historical rate comparison: Build a flow that takes two dates and a currency pair, fetches the rate on each date, and returns a structured comparison showing which direction rates moved and by how much — useful for contract valuations, hedging assessments, or financial reporting.
  • Budget and forecast enrichment: Feed a planning dataset into a flow that converts projected costs from multiple source currencies into a single reporting currency using either today's rate or a specific locked rate date — producing a consolidated budget view automatically.
  • Rate trend analysis: Wire the time series statistics tool into a flow that runs over any period of interest, computes the min/max/average for each currency pair in scope, and produces a structured rate trend summary — ready to feed into a report, dashboard, or downstream decision step.
  • Cross-currency payment routing: Build a flow that evaluates multiple currency conversion options using current rates, ranks them by net conversion value, and presents a structured recommendation — supporting smarter decisions about when and how to convert funds.
  • Rate monitoring and alerting: Chain the latest rates tool with a comparison step in a scheduled flow that checks whether any watched currency pair has moved beyond a defined threshold since the last reading — creating a structured rate movement alert that your AI can act on.
  • Real-world use cases

    Here are examples of how different users put GENE-Frankfurter to work.

  • The finance manager: A multi-currency business uses GENE-Frankfurter in a Feluda Flow to automatically convert every incoming invoice to the company's base currency using the ECB rate on the invoice date — eliminating manual FX lookups and producing audit-ready converted amounts for every transaction.
  • The freelancer working internationally: A consultant billing clients in different currencies asks their AI to convert a project fee from USD to EUR, GBP, and JPY using today's ECB rates — getting the converted amounts for all three in a single call, with no switching between tools or tabs.
  • The analyst building a report: A financial analyst preparing a quarterly review asks their AI to fetch the EUR/USD rate series for the full quarter, then compute the average, minimum, maximum, and percentage change — getting all the data they need for the FX section of the report in one interaction.
  • The developer building a product: A software team integrating multi-currency support into their application uses a Feluda Flow to fetch and cache the latest ECB rates each morning, so their AI assistant always has current rate data available for any user query without hitting the API in real time on every request.
  • The e-commerce operator: An online retailer selling in multiple regions uses GENE-Frankfurter in a pricing flow that converts base prices into each target currency using the current ECB reference rate, and flags any pairs where the rate has moved significantly since the last pricing run — prompting a review before the updated prices go live.
  • Handy starting commands

    These are ready-to-use prompts you can give your AI once GENE-Frankfurter is installed. Adapt the wording to your own style — your AI will know exactly what to do.
