Best x402 APIs for AI agents, by task

Updated 2026-10-21

The best x402 API for an AI agent depends on the job: search, inference, onchain data, market data, trust checks or media. Below are x402 APIs from our directory grouped by the task an agent is doing. Each one returned valid x402 payment terms or was confirmed from the provider’s own site or docs on the date shown. 280 of our listings accept x402 today.

How we order them: within each task, by listed starting price per call, cheapest first. We don’t rank by usage, and paid placements never change the order. Prices change, so check the provider’s 402 reply before paying (see how to pay for an API with USDC).

Search the web and read pages

For agents that need fresh information: search results, page-to-Markdown conversion and scraping, paid per request. All 24 x402 listings in this group are on Web Search & Scraping, with a comparison table at best web search & scraping.

What to look for in an x402 API

  • A clear 402 reply. An unpaid call should return HTTP 402 with the price, network, token and payTo address. If it doesn’t, the agent can’t pay it automatically.
  • Networks you hold funds on. Most listings take USDC on Base; many also accept Solana. Filter by network on Base or Solana.
  • Machine-readable docs. An OpenAPI file, an MCP server or input and output examples in the 402 reply save your agent guesswork.
  • A real operator. Check the homepage, docs and terms before you send money. Our verification notes explain what we check for each listing.
