Financial Intelligence API
Kronos provides a JSON API for multi-asset financial forecasts. Every endpoint is accessible via x402 micropayments — no API keys, no signup, no subscriptions. Pay per request with USDC on Solana or Base.
Quick start
curl -H "X-PAYMENT: <x402-payment-header>" \

How does authentication work?
No API keys. All paid endpoints use x402 — the HTTP 402 status code. The client sends a USDC payment in the X-PAYMENT header, the server verifies the on-chain transfer, and returns the data. Free endpoints require no payment.
What are the API rate limits?
| Endpoint | Limit | Window |
|---|---|---|
| Predict (cached) | 10 | per minute per IP, 20/min per wallet |
| Predict (?refresh=true) | 2 | per minute per IP (refresh), 20/min per wallet |
| Playground | 3 | per 5 minutes per IP, 3/5min per wallet |
| Decision by ID | 30 | per 5 minutes per IP |
| On-demand discovery | 10 | new symbols per hour per IP |

Which assets does the Kronos API support?
Crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, and 50+ altcoins), commodities (gold, silver, oil), forex, and pre-market equities. The /predict endpoint also supports on-demand discovery for any valid Gate.io symbol.
SDKs and integrations
- curl — any HTTP client works. x402 is just HTTP with a payment header.
- Python —
requestsorhttpx. Use the official x402 Python SDK for automatic 402 handling. - JavaScript —
fetchor axios. Drop-in wrappers:@x402/fetchand@x402/axios. - LLM agents — fetch skill.md for agent-ready instructions, or read the OpenAPI spec directly.
See pricing & plans for the full price table — from $0.005 to $0.05 per request, no subscriptions.
