x402 · HTTP 402 · USDC

APIs your agent can pay for. No account. No API key.

TariffMonkee is a catalog of small, single-purpose web tools priced per call. An agent hits an endpoint, gets a 402 with the exact price, pays in USDC over the x402 protocol, and gets its answer. No sign-up flow, no credit packs, no keys to provision or leak.

How it works

Four steps, no humans in the loop

Call the endpoint

Your agent requests any tool under /paid. Full parameter docs live at /docs and /llms.txt.

Get the price

The response is HTTP 402 with a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header stating the exact amount, asset, and accepted networks.

Pay in USDC

Any x402 v2 client signs and settles the payment. Settlement runs through the Coinbase CDP facilitator on Base and Solana.

Get the result

Retry with the PAYMENT header and receive a 200 with your data. Repeat calls within 24 hours hit cache.

Why this model

Built the opposite way around

No sign-up wall

Most agent tool platforms make you register, generate an API key, and pre-buy credits before the first call. Here the first call is the sign-up: the 402 response is the whole onboarding.

Pay for exactly what runs

Per-call pricing from $0.001. No minimums, no expiring credit balances, no subscription you forget to cancel.

Priced for machines

Every endpoint states one flat price up front, machine-readable, so an agent can budget a task before spending a cent.
