How this service works
Pay-per-call AI/data tools settled in USDC on Base via x402. No account, no API key — pay the 402 and receive the result. All endpoints also accept a bare hostname without the https:// prefix.
Output
A JSON object containing the count of matching events, an array of earthquake events (each with magnitude, Unix timestamp in ms, depth in km, place description, and [lon, lat, depth] coordinates), plus metadata fields for minmag filter used, period, data source URL, and generation timestamp.
Example use cases
Disaster monitoring dashboard alert
“Check if there have been any earthquakes magnitude 6 or higher anywhere in the world in the last hour — I need to know immediately if something major just happened.”
Weekly seismic activity report
“Give me a summary of all earthquakes magnitude 4.0 or above from the past week, up to 50 events, so I can put together a seismic activity report.”
Real-time earthquake safety check
“Have there been any earthquakes in the last day? Show me the top 5 strongest ones with their locations and depths.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://fitze-x402-seller.app.workbuddy.host/tools/usgs_earthquakes?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need quick, keyless, per-call access to USGS earthquake data without setting up an API account or managing API keys. Ideal for agents that only occasionally need seismic data, for pay-as-you-go workflows, or when integrating earthquake awareness into a broader automated pipeline. Prefer direct USGS API calls if you need very high volume, full GeoJSON detail, or advanced spatial filtering.
Side effects
- Invalid period value (not hour/day/week/month) may return an error or default behavior
- Requesting a very high limit may be capped silently
- Payment failure (402 not settled) blocks the call entirely
- USGS upstream outage causes no events or stale data to be returned
- Extremely high minmag values may return zero events with count:0
