How this service works
We curate ~20 disruptive papers every week from arXiv in AI, quantum, biotech, energy, and more — then write plain-English explainers free for people. AI agent…
Output
A JSON feed object containing a list of curated arXiv papers, each with the paper's ID, title, authors, abstract, PDF and abstract URLs, topic tags, week ID, rank within its week, and a detailed disruptiveness object including an overall score plus sub-scores for novelty, field heat, controversy, practicality, and impact potential, along with a human-readable rationale and scorer metadata. Also includes feed-level metadata: schema version, generation timestamp, and item count.
Example use cases
Weekly AI research briefing
“Give me the 5 most disruptive AI papers from this week's feed — I want the title, disruptiveness score, and the rationale explaining why each one is significant.”
Biotech breakthrough monitoring
“Check the Disruptive Concepts feed for the latest biotech papers and flag any with a disruptiveness score above 0.8 — I want to know what's about to shake up the field.”
Broad science digest across fields
“Fetch the latest 20 papers from the Disruptive Concepts weekly feed across all topics and give me a ranked summary sorted by impact potential score.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://disruptive-concepts.com/api/v1/feed/disruptive.json?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an agent needs a pre-curated, scored, and ranked list of disruptive research papers with plain-English context — rather than raw arXiv search, which lacks curation and disruptiveness scoring. Ideal for science monitoring agents, research briefing workflows, or any use case where novelty, impact potential, and field heat scores are needed alongside the paper metadata. The x402 micropayment model makes it practical for automated agent pipelines at $0.05 per call.
Side effects
- Payment not included or insufficient (HTTP 402): agent must attach $0.05 USDC via x402 protocol before the request is accepted
- Invalid topic string returns empty items array or mismatched results
- limit parameter out of range may return fewer items than requested or an error
- Feed may lag by up to a week if curation hasn't run yet for the current period
- Network timeout if the feed generation is slow server-side
