risk clean
No deterministic risk flag. Risk fires only on an exact blocklist match, or a reserved-brand name with a mismatched verified payTo. Never from low uptime, a high price, or a model guess.

Attributed pro-quota: this payout address is shared, so volume and buyers are the operator-level figure divided by the services sharing it. A declared convention, not an individually observed measure, and still a conservative undercount.
Top buyer share is a concentration signal, not part of the ranking score.

ENDPOINTS
| METHOD | PATH | DESCRIPTION | PRICE | NETWORK | ASSET |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| POST | /service | Keyless web search for AI agents. Give it a natural-language query and it returns ranked organic results (title, url, snippet) drawn from live multi-source search (DuckDuckGo HTML/Lite plus public SearXNG instances, with automatic fallback so it never returns empty when one source flakes). Optionally it also fetches the top result and extracts the main content as clean, token-budgeted markdown (answer_extract), so an agent can read the page without running its own crawler, browser or scraper. Use it to answer real-world questions, gather fresh facts, research a topic, find documentation or check what a site says, without maintaining a search index or paying for Google/Bing/Serper API keys. Resilient (short timeouts, multi-source), SSRF-hardened, 0.005 USDC on Base. | $0.005 | Base | USDC |
REQUEST / RESPONSE EXAMPLE
An unpaid request to POST /service returns HTTP 402 with the payment terms. Settle onchain via your facilitator, then retry with the X-Payment header.

RECENT CHECKS
OVER TIME
All charts share the 7d window selected here. Every series is also served as JSON at /api/v1/services/synthora-keyless-web-search/price, /scores, /volume and /buyers. On-chain volume and distinct buyers are measured over the service's settlement address and are a conservative undercount (only settlements that reach a measured facilitator are counted).
Shared payout address (61 other services). These bars are the full shared address (operator-level), so do not sum them across the services that share it. Where a per-service figure is attributed, the assessment block and the ranking, it is the address total divided pro-quota by the 62 services sharing it: a declared convention, not an individually observed measure.
