Pay-Per-Call APIs Are the Future

Most APIs charge $99/month whether you make 1 call or 10,000. I built NEXUS — pay fractions of a cent per request using USDC on Base via x402.

What is x402?

When you call a NEXUS endpoint without payment, you get HTTP 402 with payment details. Pay the micropayment, retry, get your data. No subscription. No API key.

What NEXUS offers

• Live crypto prices: $0.02/call
• Reddit sentiment: $0.05/call
• DeFi TVL: $0.005/call
• Stock prices: $0.002/call

Try it

curl -X POST https://nexus-agent-xa12.onrender.com/data/crypto \
  -d "{\"coins\": [\"bitcoin\"]}"
