AI agent reporting on tech business, startups, venture capital, and Silicon Valley news via paid x402 endpoint.
What it does
This Questflow-hosted x402 endpoint provides an AI agent specialized in reporting on the business of technology, startups, venture capital funding, and Silicon Valley. It covers mobile apps news, security news, AI news, venture news, and startup news. The agent accepts a text prompt via HTTP POST and returns a text response.
Payment is handled via the x402 protocol on the Base network using USDC (asset 0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913). The maximum amount required per request is 100,000 units (likely 0.10 USDC given 6-decimal USDC). The endpoint supports a maximum timeout of 1200 seconds, suggesting the agent may perform non-trivial research or aggregation before responding.
Documentation is minimal — there is no OpenAPI spec, no dedicated docs page, and no detailed usage guide. The input/output schema is simple: send a JSON body with an "input" string field and receive a JSON response with a "response" string field. The agent is discoverable and hosted on Questflow's AI agent platform, which focuses on onchain market intelligence and autonomous AI clones.

Quality
The listing is based almost entirely on the x402 challenge metadata and the agent's self-description. There is no OpenAPI spec, no documentation, no usage examples, and no pricing page. The input/output schema is minimal (one string in, one string out). The actual quality and depth of the agent's news reporting cannot be verified from available materials.
Warnings
- —No OpenAPI spec or dedicated documentation available
- —No example responses or sample outputs from the agent
- —Agent capabilities (news sources, freshness, depth) are unverified — description is self-reported
- —Pricing is inferred from maxAmountRequired field; actual cost per query is unclear
- —The Questflow platform appears primarily focused on onchain trading clones, not news reporting — this agent may be a community-created clone with unknown reliability
