How it works
- POST a URL to
/api/v1/read
- The API responds with HTTP 402 advertising the price
- Your agent pays in USDC on Base via x402
- You receive clean markdown plus structured metadata
Pages
- Pricing — $0.002 per call, no signup
- Documentation — POST /v1/read with curl, JavaScript, and Python examples
Skim requires JavaScript for the interactive site, but the API itself works headlessly. See the docs to call it directly from any agent.
