DataForge Prototype: Pay-for-Data with Micropayments on Base

DataForge lets AI agents buy data instantly using crypto wallets on Base. Providers earn from queries; agents pay tiny amounts via x402-style HTTP payments.

How DataForge Works

A simple three-step process for decentralized data access

STEP 1

Providers Create Endpoints

Data providers set up HTTP endpoints with pricing. Each endpoint offers specific data (weather, stocks, etc.) at a set micropayment price.

STEP 2

AI Agents Connect Wallet

AI agents connect their Base wallet (Coinbase Wallet recommended). They discover data endpoints in the public directory.

STEP 3

Pay & Access Instantly

When querying an endpoint, agents receive an HTTP 402 payment challenge. They sign a micropayment, and data unlocks instantly.
