OpinionPulse + Lindy: a scheduled check on your topics that sends a short note when opinion shifts

OpinionPulse reports when polls and prediction-market prices point the same way on a topic. Lindy can run a scheduled agent that asks OpinionPulse about your topics and sends you a short note when something has shifted, so nobody has to remember to look.

Key takeaways

The short version.

  • OpinionPulse reports a shift when a recent poll headline and overlapping Polymarket and Kalshi prices point the same way, and it links every source.
  • Lindy's documentation describes custom MCP servers added by a public HTTPS address, and routines that run daily, weekly or monthly, with a dry run to preview what would happen.
  • Lindy runs the check and writes the note. OpinionPulse supplies the poll, the prices and the sources. You read the sources and decide what the shift means.
  • Nothing here is a listing or built-in integration with Lindy, and this setup has not been tested end to end. You add the address yourself.
  • Both tools work from public data. Neither gives advice, trades or says how anyone will vote.

  • OpinionPulse says what the sources show.

It is for people who need to know when the public mood on a topic moves but do not want to check every day: communications and public affairs staff, newsroom editors, association and nonprofit staff, researchers and campaign teams.

OpinionPulse looks at three public signals for a topic you name: recent poll headlines, prices on Polymarket and Kalshi, and post volume on X. When a recent poll and the overlapping market prices point the same way, it reports a shift with its direction and links the sources. Lindy builds AI agents that run work automations on a schedule.

OpinionPulse says what the sources show. A scheduled Lindy agent asks on your behalf and keeps the note short.

Use cases

4 ways people use OpinionPulse + Lindy.

  1. Scheduled check

    1. A morning check on the topics you follow

    Lindy's routines page describes scheduled runs that are daily, weekly or monthly, and says a new routine defaults to 9:00 AM daily. Give the agent a plain instruction: for each topic on this list, ask OpinionPulse whether a shift is reported, and tell me only if one is.

    A weekly run suits slow topics. A daily run suits a topic with a vote or a debate coming up.

  2. Short note

    2. A short note, only when something moved

    The useful output is two or three sentences: the topic, the direction of the shift, how many sources agree and the links. Ask the agent to use only what the result says and to stay quiet when OpinionPulse reports no shift.

    Where the note goes depends on your setup. Lindy's routines page names chat, text message and Slack as delivery channels, and does not list email. Lindy's home page shows Gmail among its connected tools and a Gmail send action, but whether a scheduled agent can email you this way was not tested here. Use a listed channel if email does not work.

  3. No shift

    3. Say plainly when the data is thin

    When the signals do not line up, OpinionPulse does not guess. It returns a code, for example that no poll was found in the window, and a missing number is never shown as zero.

    Tell the agent to repeat that in one honest sentence instead of filling the gap. Saying what is not known is more useful than a confident guess.

  4. Ask anytime

    4. Ask a one-off question from the same agent

    Because Lindy can use the tools of a connected MCP server, you can also ask it before a meeting what OpinionPulse shows on a topic right now.

    Keep one distinction in anything you pass on: OpinionPulse describes X volume as attention, not as what people think.

How to

How do I set up the scheduled check with Lindy?

  1. Step 1

    Get a free key on [opinionpulse.app](https://opinionpulse.app) (shown once). The remote MCP address is https://opinionpulse.app/mcp.

  2. Step 2

    In Lindy, open Integrations, choose + Add, then MCP. Enter the server URL and a display name. Under Advanced, add the key as the site describes: bearer token, custom header or query parameter.

  3. Step 3

    Click Connect. Under Guardrails choose Ask for approval or Always allow, and turn off any tool you do not need.

  4. Step 4

    Create a routine with your schedule and the instruction to check your topics and report only shifts. Run a dry run first, then pick a delivery channel.

Lindy describes custom MCP servers in its documentation, which says the server must be a public HTTPS endpoint and does not say which plans include it. Menus can change, so follow that page. No scheduled email at all? Run the check on opinionpulse.app yourself, or have Lindy send the note to chat, text or Slack. OpinionPulse is not listed by Lindy or built into it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Is OpinionPulse an official Lindy integration?

No. There is no partnership or built-in integration. Lindy lets you add a custom MCP server by its address, and you add the app's address yourself. The app is an AgentStructure.AI app.

Can Lindy email me the note?

That was not confirmed. Lindy's routines page lists chat, text and Slack as delivery channels, not email, and its home page shows Gmail actions without describing this case. A listed channel works as a fallback today.

What does it cost?

The apps are free during the beta. Lindy has its own plans and credits, so check its pricing page. A scheduled run uses Lindy when it works.

Does OpinionPulse tell us how people will vote?

No. It reports public data from polls, prediction markets and X volume. It is not financial or political advice, a trade recommendation or a prediction of how people will vote.

Can we trust the agent's note?

Check it against the attached sources before you pass it on. Tell the agent to use only what the result says, and remove anything it adds.
