How this service works
Find academic papers in any field - title, authors, year, venue, DOI, citation count, open-access link and abstract - from OpenAlex (~250M works incl. arXiv and PubMed; Crossref answers if OpenAlex is down). Filter by year range and open access; sort by relevance, citations or date. Send {} to search the published example query. A search with no result is not charged. Pay-per-call via x402.
Output
A ranked list of up to 25 papers, each containing: title, author list, publication year, venue/journal name, DOI, citation count, open-access PDF link (if available), and abstract. Results are sourced from OpenAlex (~250M works including arXiv and PubMed) with Crossref as a fallback.
Example use cases
Literature review for a research proposal
“Find me the 15 most cited papers on transformer-based neural networks published between 2017 and 2023 — I need the title, authors, DOI, and abstract for each to build a literature review.”
Finding open-access papers on a medical topic
“Search for recent open-access papers about antibiotic resistance mechanisms published from 2021 onwards — I only want ones I can actually read for free, sorted by most recent first.”
Discovering foundational AI safety research
“Can you find me up to 20 academic papers on AI alignment and safety, sorted by citation count so I can see the most influential works in the field first?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://fiatdock.com/v1/papers/search?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs to discover, summarize, or retrieve metadata for academic and scientific papers at scale, especially when citation counts, DOIs, abstracts, and open-access links are needed. It is ideal for literature reviews, research discovery, and bibliometric analysis across all fields. Prefer over general web search when structured scholarly metadata is required, or when filtering by year range and open-access availability matters.
Side effects
- No results found for the query — not charged; returns empty result set
- OpenAlex unavailable — Crossref fallback used automatically, may return fewer fields
- Query too long (>200 characters) — request rejected
- Invalid year range (fromYear > toYear) — may return empty or error
- Payment failure — call not processed if x402 payment is rejected
