# Relaystation Dataset Profiler

> Relaystation Dataset Profiler is a paid API for AI agents from api.relaystation.ai, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-16).

Instantly profiles a dataset returning column types, null counts, cardinality, and min/max/mean statistics before you commit to full processing.

## Facts

- Endpoint: POST https://api.relaystation.ai/v1/data/profile
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-16

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability relaystation-dataset-profiler-beb8887b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I run my ETL pipeline, can you profile this CSV and tell me the column types, null counts, cardinality, and min/max/mean for each column?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a fast, cheap statistical snapshot of a tabular dataset before committing to expensive processing, transformation, or ingestion steps. Ideal for data engineers and agents running pre-flight checks on CSV or structured data files. At $0.0002/MB it is extremely cost-efficient for lightweight profiling compared to running a full ETL pipeline or a heavier analytics service.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed or unreadable file format returns a parse error
- Empty dataset returns minimal or empty profile
- Oversized payload may exceed request limits
- Non-tabular data (e.g. raw binary) returns an unsupported format error
- Network timeout on very large datasets

## How this service works

$0.0002/MB. Instant dataset profile — column types, null counts, cardinality, min/max/mean — before you commit to processing. 1¢ x402 min; remainder auto-credits — relaystation.ai/penny

## Output

A structured profile of the dataset including per-column data types, null counts, cardinality (unique value counts), and summary statistics (min, max, mean) for numeric columns. Priced at $0.0002/MB with a $0.01 minimum via x402 micropayment; any overage is auto-credited.
