How this service works
Pay-per-call data endpoints for AI agents. USDC on Base via x402. No account, no API key — one micropayment per call.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a 'verdict' string (e.g. 'MONITOR', 'CLEAR', 'DANGER'), an 'activeAlerts' integer count of currently active severe weather alerts, and a 'highestSeverity' string indicating the most severe alert level found (e.g. 'Moderate', 'Extreme').
Example use cases
Pre-deployment field crew safety check
“Before I send my crew out to the job site today, can you scan for any active severe weather alerts in the area and tell me if it's safe to proceed?”
Travel route weather hazard assessment
“I'm about to drive through the Midwest this afternoon — are there any active severe weather warnings along the way that I should be worried about?”
Automated event cancellation trigger
“Check right now if there are any severe weather alerts active for the outdoor venue location — I need to know the verdict and severity so I can decide whether to cancel the event.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.polyform.org/v1/geo/severe-weather-scan?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, lightweight severe weather risk verdict without requiring an API key or account setup. It is ideal for AI agents that need to autonomously assess weather safety on a per-call basis using USDC micropayments. Prefer this over full weather forecast APIs when you only need a binary or graded safety verdict and active alert count, not detailed forecast data.
Side effects
- Payment not included or insufficient USDC — returns HTTP 402 requiring micropayment
- Location parameter missing or malformed — returns error with no scan result
- No active alerts in region — returns verdict 'CLEAR' with activeAlerts: 0
- External weather data source unavailable — may return 5xx or stale data
- Rate limiting if micropayment processing is delayed
