How this service works
Live Steam best-sellers, deals, per-app detail and IGDB metadata, Twitch hype scores, and agent utilities for verification and extraction. From $0.001 a call, free samples on every endpoint, auth-then-capture. MCP and HTTP.
Output
A simple ping/pong-style response confirming the endpoint is reachable and the x402 payment was processed successfully. The response structure is minimal, primarily confirming connectivity.
Example use cases
Verify paid API connectivity before bulk queries
“Before I pull a huge batch of Steam market data, ping the Boris Inc API to make sure it's actually up and my micropayment setup is configured right.”
Troubleshoot x402 payment authorization issues
“I'm getting errors on my paid API calls—can you hit the health check endpoint to see if the problem is my x402 credentials or if the gateway itself is down?”
Monitor API uptime during market data syncs
“Check if the Boris Inc API is reachable right now so I know whether my agent can safely start pulling live Steam market prices, or if I should wait and retry.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.borisinc.com/paid/ping?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to verify that the Boris Inc API gateway is live and that your x402 micropayment credentials and flow are correctly configured. It is the lowest-cost way to test end-to-end connectivity and payment authorization before calling more expensive endpoints on the same host.

- Network unreachable: API host down — returns connection timeout or 503
- Invalid HTTP method: using POST or PUT instead of GET/HEAD/DELETE — returns 405 Method Not Allowed
