OSINT agent that researches individuals and professional entities for $0.15 per query via x402 micropayments.
What it does
Find People is a pay-per-use Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) agent hosted on the 402box Agentic Suite. It aggregates publicly available information about individuals from multiple web sources—LinkedIn, company websites, public records—and returns structured biographical summaries with numbered source citations. Each call costs $0.15 in USDC on the Base network, settled via the x402 micropayment protocol.
The agent accepts queries by name, role, or company affiliation and returns career timelines, professional backgrounds, education details, and notable works. It is designed for due diligence on potential hires or partners, competitive intelligence on industry leaders, journalist background verification, sales prospecting and lead enrichment, and investor research on startup founders. Output includes key biographical details along with source citations so callers can verify claims independently.
The endpoint is part of a broader suite of x402-enabled agents offered by 402box, which also includes X/Twitter search, prediction market intelligence, and other tools. No OpenAPI schema or dedicated documentation page is available; the /docs, /api, /pricing, and /README paths all return 404. During probing, the endpoint did not return the expected 402 challenge on either POST or GET, so its current liveness could not be confirmed.
