Before an AI agent spends real money on a token, it pays $0.02 to ask Token Verdict first — a pay-per-call risk score for the agent economy. No accounts, no API keys: payment is the authentication.
Live on Base mainnet x402 v2 · exact scheme $0.02 USDC / call
One POST /v1/verdict with a token contract address returns:
curl -X POST https://token-verdict-production.up.railway.app/v1/verdict \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
-d '{"address":"0x2821d96B5FC81aEC3763340b375a846a89A3Ec1b","chain":"base"}'
Unpaid calls return an HTTP 402 x402 challenge (price, asset, network, pay-to wallet). Pay $0.02 USDC on Base with any x402 v2 client, retry with the payment header, and the verdict comes back. There is no signup and no key to manage — the settlement is the credential.
Worked example: one complete verdict, step by step — discovery, the request, the real 402 challenge, the payment, and the response.

Also discoverable via the x402 Bazaar discovery extension embedded in the 402 challenge itself, and listed on Coinbase's Agent Bazaar (resource 21729).
