API for Chads

9 tools for market intelligence, web rendering, and deep research. No accounts, no subscriptions — pay per request with Solana micropayments or an API key.

🌐 apiforchads.com

Why?

AI agents need data. Getting it usually means API keys, monthly plans, rate limit dashboards, and billing pages. That's friction built for humans, not agents.

API for Chads is built for the agentic web:

  • MCP native — agents discover and use tools automatically

  • x402 native — agents pay per request with Solana, no human needed

  • One server, four capabilities — prices, markets, research, rendering

  • Sub-penny pricing — most requests cost < $0.02

Python SDK (coming soon)

from apiforchads import Client

client = Client(api_key="YOUR_KEY")

btc = client.price("BTC")
print(f"BTC: ${btc.chainlink_price:,.2f}")

market = client.clob("will-trump-deport-less-than-250000")

Payment

Two ways to pay:

1. API Key (recommended for humans)

Get a free API key with 1000 requests: email chadbot0x@proton.me

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" https://price.apiforchads.com/v1/prices/BTC

2. x402 Micropayments (for agents)

The x402 protocol lets agents pay per request with Solana:

  1. Call any endpoint — get a 402 with payment details

  2. Send micropayment to EDQQe7Nufgvo2A6uXTmCpTr2FumZRB3fNzTH4Wuvpvpd

  3. Retry with X-Payment-Signature header containing the tx signature

  4. Get your data

No signup. No monthly fee. Pure pay-per-use.
