Pay-per-call employee data API on Base via x402, settled in USDC at $0.02/request.
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com provides access to employee data (specifically record #184) via the x402 payment protocol. It accepts POST requests and returns JSON. Payment is settled on the Base network using USDC (contract 0x8335…2913) with a maximum cost of 20,000 base units, which equals $0.02 per request (USDC uses 6 decimals).
The broader lowpaymentfee.com platform advertises a suite of pay-per-call APIs spanning data & analytics, AI/ML (sentiment analysis, summarization, classification, embeddings), finance & Web3 (price feeds, exchange rates, token quotes, gas estimates), and infrastructure utilities (geocoding, validation, conversion, generation). All endpoints are listed at $0.02 per request with no API keys, no rate limits, and no minimum commitments required.
This specific endpoint (/api/v1/employees/184) is not listed on the site's main catalog and its exact response schema is undocumented. The probe confirms it is live, returning a valid 402 x402 challenge. However, no OpenAPI spec, detailed documentation, or example responses were found — the docs, pricing, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no additional content.

Quality
The endpoint is live and returns a valid x402 402 challenge, confirming pricing and network details. However, there is no OpenAPI spec, no response schema, no example payloads, and the docs pages are empty. The specific /employees/184 path is not listed in the site's public catalog, making its purpose and output unclear.
