How much does one call cost?

from $0.123 in USDC on Base, per successful call, depending on resolution (480p: $0.123, 720p: $0.244). No sign-up, subscription or API key.

What happens if the call fails?

You are not charged. TollNode checks your signed payment first, runs the node, and only collects the payment if the result is usable. A failed, empty or timed-out call is never settled, so there is nothing to refund.

How does an AI agent pay?

With x402. The first request returns HTTP 402 and the exact price. Any x402 wallet signs the USDC payment and retries automatically. In Claude Code or Cursor, run npx agentcash add https://tollnode.com once.

Can I use an API key instead?

Yes. Create a free account, add funds in USDC on Base, create an API key and send it as Authorization: Bearer. Each successful call is deducted from your balance at the same price; failed calls cost nothing.

Warm morning sunlight from a window on the left, soft steam rising from the cup, shallow depth of field, background softly blurred. The camera slowly pushes in toward the cup. Photorealistic, natural motion, 35mm film look.”
