# School Signals Edtech Renewal Data API (USDC on Base)

> School Signals Edtech Renewal Data API (USDC on Base) is a paid API for AI agents from pay.adamhaleworks.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.03/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-23).

Returns UK school and trust edtech contract renewal signals filtered by buyer, region, category, supplier, and contract end window, paid per-query in USDC on Base via x402.

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 school-signals-edtech-renewal-data-api-usdc-on-base-ba93fe12
```

Example prompt: Show me MIS software contracts in English schools ending within the next 6 months in the East Midlands region — I want to see which trusts are coming up for renewal and who the incumbent suppliers are.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need fresh, queryable UK school edtech contract renewal intelligence with per-query pricing and no account setup. It is preferable to bulk dataset purchases when you only need a narrow slice (specific region, category, or buyer), and preferable to manual Contracts Finder searches when you need structured, enriched data with reprocurement window estimates. The $0.03/call USDC micropayment model via x402 suits agents that need on-demand access without committing to the 295 USDC England snapshot.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not included or insufficient — 402 Payment Required returned
- Invalid category slug or enum value — returns empty results or validation error
- Buyer ID not found in School Signals index — returns zero results
- ending_within_months outside 1–24 range — may return error or be ignored
- No contracts match the filter combination — returns empty results array
- Supplier name string too short (<3 chars) or too long (>80 chars) — rejected

## How this service works

Buy UK school edtech renewal data (queries from $0.03, England snapshot 295 USDC) and the DfE AI safety evidence toolkit (149 USDC) with canonical USDC on Base. Automatic delivery, no account.

## Output

A JSON object containing a capped list of contract renewal records (up to 25 per call), applied filters, and the query window. Each record includes buyer identity (school or trust name, region, LA), contract title, incumbent supplier, award date, contract start and end dates, awarded/estimated value in GBP, procurement method, frameworks referenced, possible extension details, estimated reprocurement window, and source notice URL from Contracts Finder.
