APIbase.pro — The API Hub for AI Agents

One MCP + REST endpoint to 1385 tools from 400 providers. No signup, no subscription, no API key to start — pay per call in USDC (x402 on Base or MPP on Tempo).

Latest release: see the tag that equals package.json version; release notes in docs/releases/.

Quick Start

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apibase": { "url": "https://apibase.pro/mcp" }
  }
}

That's the Claude Desktop config. Cursor, Windsurf, OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, Google ADK, CrewAI, Microsoft Copilot Studio, and plain REST: apibase.pro/connect.

For Merchants — Integrator

AI payment for merchants: a merchant gets its own MCP storefront, and a buyer's agent gets a quote and pays in USDC (x402 on Base, MPP on Tempo) straight to the merchant wallet. Non-custodial; fee 0% during the pilot.

• Overview — what it is and how to connect
• Agent guide — step-by-step connection for a merchant's agent
• WooCommerce plugin — catalog sync and paid-order webhook
• Demo shop — a live storefront
• Integrator guide (source: static/integrator/docs.md); operator notes: docs/integrator.md

For paying agents: what protects your money

• Fixed price before payment — the 402 response states the exact amount and recipient; see payments.
• Payment identifier / idempotency — persist the id and signed payload before you send, re-send after a crash: agent guide.
• Public receipts — https://apibase.pro/r/<id>.json, see receipts.
• Several agents, one budget — buyers.
• Tool definition fingerprint — discover-tools and /api/v1/tools/manifest.

Self-Hosting

git clone https://github.com/whiteknightonhorse/APIbase.git && cd APIbase
cp .env.example .env   # set POSTGRES_PASSWORD, X402_PAYMENT_ADDRESS, provider keys
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d

Architecture

Single Node.js/TypeScript API server, PostgreSQL as the append-only financial source of truth, Redis for cache/rate-limiting only, multi-container Docker stack on one Hetzner server. Every tool call runs the same multi-stage pipeline (escrow-first, idempotent, content-moderated, fail-closed on payment, cache and rate limit; the idempotency stage fails open on Redis errors) — dual-rail payments (self-hosted x402 facilitator + MPP), error-code contract, and full container/pipeline detail (exact counts, live): docs/architecture.md.
