How this service works
Pay-per-call tools for AI agents: web to Markdown, PDF text, Markdown to PDF, charts, diagrams, QR, page publishing, DNS, RDAP, TLS. x402, USDC on Base, no API key.
Output
A JSON object containing the original query string, a list of paper results (each with DOI URL, publication year, title, abstract, and cited_by count), and a total_matches integer indicating how many papers matched the query in total.
Example use cases
Literature review for research paper
“Can you find me the top 10 most-cited academic papers on CRISPR gene editing published since 2018? Sort them by citation count so I can see the most influential work first.”
Staying current on a research topic
“Search for the most recent papers on large language model alignment — limit to 5 results sorted by recency so I can see what's been published lately.”
Discovering foundational research
“Find academic papers about attention mechanisms in deep learning sorted by relevance, and give me their abstracts and DOIs so I can read the key ones.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://tools.anokha.space/v1/papers?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to search academic literature programmatically without an API key, paying per call via USDC on Base. It is well-suited for agents performing automated literature reviews, citation discovery, or research enrichment pipelines. Prefer this over Google Scholar scraping or OpenAlex direct calls when you need a simple pay-per-use model with structured JSON responses including abstracts and citation data.
Side effects
- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns a validation error
- Invalid sort enum value (not 'relevance', 'cited', or 'recent') causes a 400 error
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance returns HTTP 402
- Very broad queries may return large total_matches but limited results per call
- No results found for highly specific or obscure queries returns empty results array
