Research / one complete agent job

Ask now.
Know what came back.

Research returns current evidence with its sources inside one explicit cost boundary. The first call needs no account, no key and no wallet.

The whole job / one command

This is the entire integration.

No account, no key, no wallet. The free route currently requires an idempotency-key header, so the command below carries one; reuse the same value to replay without a second execution.

What comes back

Evidence you can check, not prose you must trust.

  • Ranked evidence

    Normalized retrieval results in a stable shape, ordered by relevance rather than by whoever paid for placement.

  • Source citations

    Every result carries the source it came from, so the answer can be checked rather than trusted.

  • No synthesized prose

    The publicly available operation returns evidence, not an essay. Synthesis is a separate operation and is not publicly available.

  • A bounded cost

    The maximum charge is quoted before anything runs, and the settled amount is never higher.

What it costs

A ceiling, quoted before anything runs.

What has been paid for

One settlement, one useful result, one safe replay.

The owner funded this to verify payment plumbing. It is not a customer transaction, and no revenue, demand or public commercial traction follows from it.
