How this service works

Example use cases
Example prompt

Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.the402.ai/v1/services/svc_8d66a5fc802a472d/purchaseWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a structured, asynchronous forensic breakdown of AI agent costs — particularly when you suspect cost overruns, want to audit spending patterns, or need to optimize agent operational efficiency. Prefer over generic logging or monitoring tools when the output needs to be specifically framed around agent cost attribution.
Side effects
- Insufficient USDC balance or payment failure — payment of $5.25 USDC required per call
- Invalid or missing input parameters result in a 400 error
- Service unavailable or internal error returns 500
- Job creation failure — job_id not returned, retry may be needed
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded for the calling agent identity
