Example use cases
Literature review author discovery
“I'm doing a literature review on CRISPR gene editing — can you search OpenAlex for the top authors in that area and get me their names and identifiers?”
Citation graph enrichment
“I have a list of papers and I need to find the OpenAlex author IDs for researchers working on quantum computing so I can build a citation network — can you search for them?”
Research collaboration prospecting

Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://proxy.suverse.io/v1/data/suverse-openalex-authorsWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to search for academic authors by keyword or name using the OpenAlex open scholarly graph without requiring an API key. It is ideal for literature review workflows, citation analysis, and research enrichment pipelines where author identifiers and metadata are needed. Prefer this over direct OpenAlex API calls when operating in an agentic context with x402 micropayment support or when API key management is not feasible.
Side effects
- Empty results if keyword is too obscure or misspelled
- Ambiguous matches if the keyword is too broad or common
- Timeout if OpenAlex upstream is slow or unavailable
- 400 error if required input body fields are malformed or missing
- Rate limiting or payment failure if x402 payment is not processed correctly
