How this service works
VIA is a paid buyer-side router for AI agents and humans. Compare APIs, services, products and sourced research with x402 USDC payments on Base.
Output
Returns a JSON object with a recommended service title and source, a list of alternative options, the payment settlement details (network and transaction hash on Base), the toll fee paid in USD, and a flag confirming the payment was processed.
Example use cases
Finding the right OCR API
“I need to extract text from scanned invoice images — can you search for the best OCR or PDF text extraction API and compare the top options for me?”
Comparing email delivery services
“I'm building a SaaS app and need to pick a transactional email service — can you compare the main options available and recommend the best one for a US-based startup?”
Discovering travel booking tools
“I'm building a travel agent and need an API to search and book flights — can you find and compare the best travel APIs available, focusing on the travel market?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://via-router.floot.app/_api/product_search_compare?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when an AI agent or developer needs a single call to discover, compare, and receive a recommendation for APIs or services across multiple markets, with built-in USDC micropayment settlement via x402 on Base — especially when the agent lacks its own service discovery layer or needs a buyer-side routing decision without manually querying multiple marketplaces.
Side effects
- Intent string too short or missing — returns validation error
- Invalid market enum value — rejected at schema validation
- Invalid country code format (must be ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) — returns 400
- Payment not settled or x402 handshake fails — call does not proceed
- No matching recommendation found — alternatives list may be empty
- Language not supported beyond 'en' or 'pt' — returns validation error
