Research with Keryx
researchResearch a question under a USDC creator-payment budget. Keryx selects sources, pays access tolls and weighted citation rewards on the configured Arc network, then returns qualified source excerpts and a receipt. Complete synthesis and per-assertion entailment remain unverified. This remote surface uses Keryx's treasury; anonymous research is sponsored, not caller-funded usage. Public research may send your question to our search provider. The source USDC budget is separate from model and search operating costs. For retained or repository bibliography use free paper_lookup with an exact identifier. An ordinary explicit exact-original bibliography request can also return a separate metadata-only record and references without a model call or creator payment; page status and full-paper evidence remain separate. New runs record remote MCP ingress. A verified ask-scoped API key attributes the run to its wallet; anonymous runs have no wallet owner. Editable client names establish no identity or spending authority.
