# AllTheBot x402 API Recommender

> AllTheBot x402 API Recommender is a paid API for AI agents from api.zkrobotics.fr, paid per call via x402, $0.008/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-29).

Recommends the best x402 paid API endpoints to call based on a plain-language description of what you need, including URL, price, uptime, latency, and risk flags.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability allthebot-x402-api-recommender-6a0775ef
```

Example prompt: I need to fetch live token prices — can you find me the best x402 paid API for that, showing up to 3 results and only options under $0.02 per call?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to dynamically discover which x402 paid API to call for a given task, especially when cost, uptime, and latency matter. Prefer this over static API directories when you need live-probed metrics (refreshed every 6 hours), real buyer verification, and risk flags — rather than self-reported marketing claims.

## Known failure modes

- No matching endpoints found for the described need — returns empty results
- 'need' query parameter missing — returns validation error
- 'limit' exceeds maximum of 5 or is less than 1 — returns schema validation error
- 'max_price_usdc' is zero or negative — rejected by exclusiveMinimum constraint
- Payment of $0.008 USDC not fulfilled — returns HTTP 402 payment required

## How this service works

Which x402 API should I call? Describe your need in plain words (weather forecast, token price, web search, translate...) and get the best paid endpoints to call: URL, method, price, measured uptime (7/30 days), latency, real buyers, risk flags and a market price summary. Pre-payment API verification and x402 endpoint discovery, probed every 6 h. No AI, verifiable numbers.

## Output

A ranked list of up to 5 x402 API endpoints matching the described need, each with URL, HTTP method, price in USDC, 7-day and 30-day uptime percentages, median latency, number of real buyers, risk flags, and a market price summary across comparable endpoints.
