What is Agent Gateway?

Agent Gateway, listed here as Frostbyte Crypto API, is a hosted API that puts dozens of small web services behind one key for AI agents and the developers who build them. The page lists services including DNS lookup, screenshots, web scraping, code execution, geolocation, PDF handling and live crypto prices, which it says come from the Hyperliquid DEX for more than 275 perpetual futures markets. Payment is designed for software: when credits run out, an endpoint can answer with HTTP 402, and the agent sends USDC on the Base network and retries with the transaction hash. A free key allows 50 requests a day, and extra credits cost $1 USDC for 500 credits that never expire. The site also publishes agent.json and llms.txt so agents can discover what is available, and a live status section shows whether each service is online.

  1. Create a free key with a POST to the key endpoint, or call services without a key inside the daily free limit.
  2. List the available services and try one, such as a DNS lookup or a price request, with the key as a bearer token.
  3. Check your remaining credits with the balance endpoint as your agent makes calls.
  4. When free requests run out, top up credits with USDC on Base, or let the agent answer the 402 response by sending payment and retrying.
