How this service works
Explore 330 pay-per-call x402 API services and 27 agent-native digital products, with Base USDC pricing, secure Polar checkout, and free discovery.
Output
Returns a structured JSON object containing a transaction_cost_comparison string summarizing the comparison, a list of warnings about data limitations or assumptions, the service_id confirming which service ran, and an evidence_scope field indicating the analysis was based on caller-supplied data. Also includes a full receipt with payment metadata, execution timing, and a result hash for verification.
Example use cases
L1 vs L2 cost comparison for token transfer
“Which is cheaper right now for sending 500 USDC — Ethereum mainnet or Base? Give me a cost comparison so I can decide where to execute.”
Gas fee analysis for smart contract deployment
“Compare the cost of deploying a standard ERC-20 contract on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Optimism — I need to know which chain makes the most sense economically.”
NFT minting fee comparison across EVM chains
“I'm about to mint 100 NFTs and want to know which EVM network is cheapest — can you compare transaction costs on Polygon, Base, and Ethereum for a batch mint?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://signalharness.ai/api/agent/services/evm_transaction_cost_compare/invokeWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an AI agent or user needs to compare gas/transaction costs across EVM-compatible blockchains based on a described scenario, and does not have direct on-chain RPC access or a pre-built gas oracle. It is well-suited for advisory, routing, and decision-support workflows where the agent needs to recommend the cheapest chain for a specific operation type. It accepts natural language or structured descriptions, making it accessible without deep blockchain tooling knowledge.
Side effects
- Malformed or empty transaction_cost_compare_request returns a validation error
- Request string exceeds 65536 character limit causing rejection
- Ambiguous or under-specified request may yield a low-confidence comparison with warnings
- Payment failure via x402 protocol results in no execution
- Network-specific data unavailable may cause partial results with warnings
