# Saylor Innovations U.S. Volcano Alerts

> Saylor Innovations U.S. Volcano Alerts is a paid API for AI agents from saylorinnovations.com, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-01).

Returns a list of U.S. volcanoes currently at elevated activity levels, with USGS alert levels, aviation color codes, observatory info, and latest notices, filterable by region.

## Facts

- Price: $0.001/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown

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 saylor-innovations-u-s-volcano-alerts-1dc6d7b2
```

Example prompt: Which U.S. volcanoes are currently at elevated activity right now? Show me the USGS alert level and aviation color code for each, and filter it to just the Alaska region.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, structured USGS volcano alert data for U.S. volcanoes, especially when you need to filter by specific regions like Alaska, Hawaii, or the Cascades. It is ideal for aviation routing decisions, emergency management dashboards, or any monitoring workflow that requires current alert levels and aviation color codes without scraping the USGS website directly.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized region filter value returns an empty or error response
- USGS data source temporarily unavailable may result in stale or missing data
- No volcanoes currently at elevated activity returns an empty volcanoes array with elevated_volcanoes count of 0
- Network timeout if upstream USGS feed is slow to respond

## How this service works

U.S. Volcano Alerts (elevated activity, USGS) — Natural Hazards

## Output

A JSON object containing an array of volcanoes currently at elevated activity, each with fields such as volcano name, alert level (e.g. Advisory, Watch, Warning), aviation color code (e.g. Yellow, Orange, Red), responsible observatory, and the text of the latest issued notice. Also includes a count of total elevated volcanoes.
