Bazaar Cheapest
by datastand.dev in Search & web
Cost-optimised endpoint selection: name a capability (web search, token safety, enrichment) and get the x402 endpoints that provide it ranked cheapest-first in USDC per call, with adoption stats. Refreshed daily from the Bazaar discovery index. The corpus is the most-used slice of the Bazaar, so read `price_floor_complete` and `corpus.cutoff` for whether the price floor you get is the Bazaar's or only ours — both are free on the catalog listing.

Example request
From the listing.
GET https://datastand.dev/api/bazaar/cheapest?capability=web+search&limit=20&min_payers=1&offset=0Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
capability | string | Yes | What the endpoint must do, e.g. 'web search' |
limit | string | No | Rows per page, 1-100 (default 20) |
min_payers | string | No | Minimum unique 30-day payers (default 1). Cannot go below corpus.cutoff.payers_30d — the index holds no rows under it, so a lower value is reported back raised in filters.min_payers_effective. Strictly above the cutoff gives price_floor_complete: true. |
offset | string | No | Skip this many ranked candidates (default 0). Use page.next_offset from the previous response. A page past the end costs nothing. |

The curl command shows the payment challenge. The JavaScript and Python versions pay and call, and never pay more than $0.005.
