Pricing
Simple, transparent pricing. Free endpoints for everyone. Pay-per-request for premium APIs via x402.
── Free Endpoints ──
No API key required. Rate limited to 60 requests/minute per IP address.

── What is x402? ──
x402 is an open protocol for HTTP-native payments. It uses the 402 Payment Required status code — the same one the HTTP spec reserved for digital payments back in 1999.
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ How x402 Works │
│ ────────────── │
│ │
│ 1. Client sends request to paid endpoint │
│ GET /v1/valuation/example.com │
│ │
│ 2. Server responds with 402 + payment details │
│ 402 Payment Required │
│ { amount, recipient, network, token } │
│ │
│ 3. Client signs USDC payment on Base │
│ (handled automatically by x402 SDK) │
│ │
│ 4. Client retries with payment header │
│ X-PAYMENT: │
│ │
│ 5. Server verifies payment, returns data │
│ 200 OK + valuation response │
│ │

── Quick Start ──
Use the Coinbase x402 client SDK to make paid requests automatically.
import { paymentMiddleware } from "x402-axios";
import axios from "axios";
// Create client with x402 payment middleware
const client = axios.create();
client.use(paymentMiddleware("YOUR_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY"));
// Payment is handled automatically on 402
const response = await client.get(
"https://api.robotdomainsearch.com/v1/valuation/example.com?tier=full"
);
console.log(response.data);
from x402_python import x402_requests
# Create session with x402 payment handling
session = x402_requests.Session(
wallet_private_key="YOUR_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY"
)
# Payment is handled automatically on 402
response = session.get(
"https://api.robotdomainsearch.com/v1/valuation/example.com",
params={"tier": "full"}
)
print(response.json())
import "github.com/coinbase/x402-go"
// Create x402-enabled HTTP client
client := x402.NewClient("YOUR_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY")
// Payment is handled automatically on 402
resp, err := client.Get(
"https://api.robotdomainsearch.com/v1/valuation/example.com?tier=full",
)
── Rate Limit Headers ──
Free endpoints include rate limit headers in every response.
┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Header Description │ │ ────── ─────────── │ │ X-RateLimit-Limit Maximum requests per minute (60) │ │ X-RateLimit-Remaining Requests remaining in current window │ │ X-RateLimit-Reset Unix timestamp when the limit resets │ │ │ │ When exceeded → 429 Too Many Requests + Retry-After header │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
┌──────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ X-RateLimit-Limit: 60 │ │ X-RateLimit-Remaining: 55 │ │ X-RateLimit-Reset: 170406... │ │ │ │ Exceeded → 429 + Retry-After │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────┘

── Why x402? ──
- No API keys — No registration, no tokens to manage. Just pay and use.
- No subscriptions — Pay only for what you use. No monthly minimums.
- Instant access — Start making paid requests immediately with a funded wallet.
- Transparent — Pricing is embedded in the protocol. The 402 response tells you exactly what a request costs.
- AI-native — AI agents can discover pricing and pay autonomously. No human-in-the-loop needed.
