How this service works
Price and feasibility for ONE specific Animica compute job before you pay for it. Send {kind, prompt, quantity} and get the exact cost in atomic units, whether a GPU miner or AICF worker is online for that exact kind right now (with probe age and chain head), the endpoint and body to POST, and a pre-check of your payload. Refuses with 503 and charges nothing when nothing can serve the work. Buy this when a failed render would cost you more than the quote.
Output
Returns the exact cost in atomic units, a boolean or status indicating whether a GPU miner or AICF worker is currently online for the requested job kind, the probe age and current chain head, the endpoint URL and a pre-filled POST body ready to submit, and a validation result for the supplied prompt and params. Returns HTTP 503 with no charge if no worker can serve the job.
Example use cases
Pre-flight check before costly video render
“Quote me an Animica video_i2v job for the prompt 'cinematic ocean sunrise, slow pan' — I need the exact price in atomic units, whether there's a worker online, and the endpoint I'd use to actually submit it.”
Bulk audio mastering cost estimation
“What would it cost to run 50 audio_master jobs on Animica? Check if workers are available right now and give me a breakdown before I commit to the spend.”
Validate inference payload before submitting
“Before I pay for it, can you check whether my inference prompt 'summarize the following legal contract in plain English' is acceptable to Animica and give me the exact cost and a ready-to-send request body?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://animica.dev/x402/compute/quoteWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint whenever a failed or rejected compute job would cost more than the $0.00689 quote fee — it lets you confirm pricing, worker availability, and payload correctness before paying for the actual job. Prefer it over submitting directly when GPU or AICF worker availability is uncertain, when the render is expensive, or when you need to validate prompt acceptance in advance.
Side effects
- 503 returned when no GPU miner or AICF worker is online for the requested job kind — no charge incurred
- Invalid or unsupported 'kind' value results in a validation error
- Prompt rejected during pre-check — returns error before any charge
- quantity out of range (must be 1–1000) causes request rejection
- Malformed params object fails shape-check validation
- Missing required 'kind' field returns a schema validation error
