Web3 Tools Keccak-256 Hash
x402
Web3 Tools Keccak-256 Hash is a paid API for AI agents from web3-tools.x402tookit.com, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status down (last checked 2026-10-23).
Computes the Keccak-256 hash of text or hex bytes, returning the hash, the first 4 bytes (function selector), and NIST SHA3-256 for comparison.

How this service works
Keccak-256 hash (the Ethereum one) of text or hex bytes, with the first-4-byte selector and NIST SHA3-256 for contrast.
Output
Returns the full 32-byte Keccak-256 hash as a hex string, the first 4 bytes of that hash (useful as an EVM function selector), the NIST SHA3-256 hash of the same input for contrast, the number of input bytes processed, and the encoding used. May also include source/timestamp metadata and disclaimer fields.
Example use cases
Derive Solidity function selector
“What's the Keccak-256 hash of 'approve(address,uint256)' so I can get the 4-byte function selector for my ABI encoding?”
Hash hex bytes for EVM calldata
“Hash these hex bytes using Keccak-256: 0xdeadbeef — treat the input as hex encoding, and show me the first 4 bytes too.”
Compare Keccak-256 vs SHA3-256
“I need to see the difference between Keccak-256 and standard NIST SHA3-256 for the string 'hello world' — can you run both?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://web3-tools.x402tookit.com/keccak256?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need the Ethereum-flavored Keccak-256 hash specifically (not standard NIST SHA3-256), especially for computing EVM function selectors, event topic hashes, or verifying ABI encoding. Prefer this over general SHA3 tools when the distinction between Keccak-256 and NIST SHA3-256 matters, and when you want both values side-by-side for comparison.
Side effects
- Missing required 'input' query parameter returns an error
- Invalid hex string when encoding=hex causes a parse error
- Empty input may return a hash of empty bytes rather than an error
- Unsupported encoding value (not utf8 or hex) may return a validation error
- Payment failure (x402) prevents the call from completing
