GovLaws MPP Semantic Search is a paid API for AI agents from GovLaws at govlaws.ai, paid per call via MPP, $0.03/call, status down (last checked 2026-10-12).
Semantically searches U.S. federal regulations (CFR) and/or U.S. Code statutes using natural language queries, with pay-per-request access via the Machine Payment Protocol.
Semantic search across current U.S. federal regulations
A ranked list of up to 20 federal regulation or statute excerpts/citations matching the query, sourced from CFR and/or U.S. Code, with provenance metadata indicating the official government source.
POSThttps://govlaws.ai/api/mpp/search?utm_source=zero.xyzUse this endpoint when you need semantic or keyword search over U.S. federal regulations (CFR) and/or U.S. Code statutes without holding a GovLaws API key, and you are willing to pay $0.03 USDC per request via the MPP 402 flow. Prefer this over the keyed /api/search endpoint when operating in keyless agent environments. Choose corpus='all' for broad legal research, 'regulations' for CFR-only, or 'statutes' for U.S. Code only.
