Two ways to connect

AI agents pay per-call in USDC with zero setup. Developers get a free key for testing and low-volume use.

AI Agent Access
x402

No signup, no account. Any x402-compatible agent wallet pays per request in USDC on Base mainnet and receives data immediately.

$0.005  / request
≈ $5 per 1,000 calls — USDC on Base mainnet
  1. Agent calls any /v1/* endpoint
  2. Server returns 402 with USDC payment details
  3. Agent pays 0.005 USDC, retries with X-Payment header
  4. Data returned, no account required
Developer Access
Free

Get a key for testing and low-volume use. Pass it as an X-API-Key header on any request.

Reference

Endpoints

All endpoints accept an X-API-Key header or x402 payment. JSON responses served from Cloudflare’s edge.

GET /v1/signals
Federal Register regulatory signals — export controls, sanctions, and import restrictions on critical materials.

MCP Configuration

Add SemiData as a tool in Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible agent. Five tools: signals, deposits, entities, tradeflows, SEC filings.

x402 — agent flow (no config required)
# 1. Agent makes a normal GET request
GET https://semidata.dev/v1/signals?material=Germanium
#    <- 402 Payment Required (amount, asset, address on Base)

# 2. Agent wallet signs and sends 0.005 USDC on Base
# 3. Agent retries with X-Payment header
GET https://semidata.dev/v1/signals?material=Germanium
X-Payment: <signed-payment-payload>
#    <- 200 OK + data. No account, no API key needed.
