AML alerts endpoint on Base, pay-per-call via x402 with USDC
What it does
This endpoint at lowpaymentfee.com provides access to AML (Anti-Money Laundering) alert data at the path `/api/v1/aml/alerts/73`. It is part of a broader platform offering dozens of pay-per-request APIs spanning data analytics, AI/ML inference, finance, crypto, and utility services. All endpoints on the platform use the x402 payment protocol, settling in USDC on the Base network.
The specific endpoint probed (`/api/v1/aml/alerts/73`) returns an x402 challenge requesting up to 20,000 base units of USDC (i.e., $0.02) per call. The platform advertises a flat $0.02/request pricing across all its APIs with no API keys, no rate limits, and instant access. Payment is made via the x402 `exact` scheme, meaning each request requires a one-shot USDC micropayment on Base.
Documentation is extremely thin — the docs, pricing, API, and README pages all render only a "Connect wallet" prompt with no substantive content. There is no OpenAPI schema, no request/response examples, and no description of what the AML alerts endpoint actually returns. The endpoint path suggests it retrieves a specific AML alert by ID (73), but the actual data format and fields are unknown. The platform accepts POST requests based on the outputSchema in the x402 challenge.

Quality
The endpoint is live and returns a valid x402 challenge, but there is no documentation, no OpenAPI schema, no request/response examples, and no explanation of what AML alert data is actually returned. The listing is effectively a stub with only pricing and protocol details confirmed.
Warnings

- —No OpenAPI or JSON schema describing request body or response format
- —Unknown what data fields the AML alerts endpoint returns
- —The specific alert ID '73' in the path is hardcoded; unclear if other IDs are valid
