Grokbot x402 Preflight
x402
Grokbot x402 Preflight is a paid API for AI agents from x402-preflight-grokbot.netlify.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).
Inspects an x402 pay-per-call endpoint before payment, returning offers, pricing, verdict, and warnings so an agent can decide whether to pay.

How this service works
Pay-per-call tools for AI agents: read a web page safely with prompt-injection warnings ($0.002), or check an x402 endpoint before paying it ($0.01). USDC on Base, no account.
Output
A JSON object with a verdict enum (pay, caution, do_not_pay, or not_x402), an array of payment offers including amount in atomic units and USD, the recommended offer, an array of warnings and reasons, the HTTP status returned by the target, round-trip latency in milliseconds, and whether the endpoint is listed on the Bazaar registry.
Example use cases
Verify price before paying unknown API
“I found an x402 endpoint at https://data.example.com/prices?ticker=ETH that says it costs money to call — can you do a preflight check on it with GET and tell me the verdict, the exact USDC amount it wants, and whether it looks safe to pay?”
Enforce agent budget ceiling
“My agent is about to call https://news.someprovider.io/api/headlines via GET on x402 — preflight it with a max price ceiling of $0.005 USD and flag it if the offer exceeds that so I don't overspend.”
Audit x402 listing legitimacy
“Check whether https://api.weatherpay.xyz/current?city=London is a real x402 endpoint and if it's listed on Bazaar — do a GET preflight and give me the full verdict including any caution flags.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-preflight-grokbot.netlify.app/api/preflight?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an AI agent encounters an x402 payment-gated URL and needs to evaluate it before committing USDC — especially when you want an independent verdict on pricing fairness, Bazaar listing status, or suspicious payment parameters. Prefer this over blindly calling the target endpoint, as it costs only $0.01 and can prevent wasted or fraudulent payments.
Side effects
- Target URL is not an x402 endpoint → verdict returns 'not_x402'
- Target endpoint is unreachable or times out → latencyMs will be high, httpStatus may be absent
- Offer price exceeds max_usd ceiling → flagged in warnings array
- Malformed or missing 'url' query parameter → request rejected
- Target returns non-standard x402 headers → parsing errors or caution verdict
