How this service works
Source-backed public web research API for AI agents using x402 payments.
Output
A structured research response containing findings from public web sources related to the query, with citations or source links. Results may be filtered by date using the 'since' parameter. The response is intended to be citation-backed rather than purely generated text.
Example use cases
Competitive intelligence briefing
“Research what's been publicly reported about Anthropic's funding and partnerships since March 2025 — I need cited sources I can verify.”
Breaking news background research
“Find me recent news and reporting on the US tariff situation with China, anything published in the last two weeks, with links to the original sources.”
Due diligence on a company
“Can you pull together source-backed research on Perplexity AI — recent coverage, any controversies, funding news — from the past few months?”

Endpoint
POSThttps://x402-agent.scope-research-api.workers.dev/news-researchWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need source-backed, citation-grounded web research rather than purely model-generated answers. It is particularly well-suited for news research, recent events, or due diligence tasks where verifiable sources matter. Prefer it over generic LLM knowledge when recency and citations are important. The x402 micropayment model ($0.03 USDC per call) makes it practical for frequent agent use without subscription overhead.
Side effects
- Query returns no results for very niche or obscure topics
- The 'since' date filter may exclude relevant older sources if set too recent
- x402 payment failure if wallet is underfunded or payment protocol misconfigured
- Rate limiting or timeout on Cloudflare Worker for very broad queries
- Ambiguous queries may return loosely related results without precise filtering
