How this service works
Public data and utility APIs paid per call in USDC on Base (x402). No accounts, no API keys. 174 routes: crypto/equity data, onchain reads, DNS/email/security intel, geo/weather, x402 payment diagnostics, dev utilities and more.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the queried URL and an array of snapshot records, each with a timestamp (formatted as YYYYMMDDHHmmss) and HTTP status code at the time of archival.
Example use cases
Verify domain age and history
“What does the Wayback Machine show for the archive history of oldnewspaper.com? I want to know how far back it goes and what status codes were returned.”
OSINT investigation on a suspicious site
“Can you check the Wayback Machine history for phishy-site.ru and tell me when it was first archived and what status codes showed up over time?”
Check if a deleted page was ever archived
“I'm looking for a webpage that's been taken down — can you search the Wayback Machine history for myblog.com/old-post and see if there are any snapshots saved?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://anibalb.duckdns.org/x402/wayback-history?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to retrieve the full archive crawl history of a URL from the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, especially for OSINT investigations, domain history verification, checking if deleted content was ever cached, or auditing when a site was first indexed. Prefer this over direct Wayback Machine API calls when you need a pay-per-call, keyless approach via x402 on Base.
Side effects
- URL has never been archived — returns empty snapshots array
- Invalid or malformed URL input causes a 4xx error
- Wayback Machine CDX API is unavailable or rate-limited, causing a timeout or 5xx error
- Domain exists but has no public archive entries
