The problem

Your agent is smart. Its data is stale

Models are trained on a snapshot of the past, and most data APIs assume a human with a keyboard, a signup form, and a credit card.

So agents guess. Confidently.

What we do

Data built agent-first

One MCP line and your agent can search Google and LinkedIn live. It only ever spends on results, and with x402 it does not even need an account.

The process

From zero to a self-sufficient agent, in three steps

STEP 1

Add one line.

Drop the MCP server into your agent’s config. It ships every Google surface and the LinkedIn menu as tools.

"mcpServers": {
  "crustapi": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["crustapi-mcp"]
  }
}

{
  "title": "Relax and Smile Dental Care",
  "reviewsCount": 921,
  "phoneNumber": "(786) 983-48••",
  "website": "relaxandsmile.com"
}

STEP 2

It searches live.

Every call reads the live page, so your agent answers from today, not from its training run. Empty results cost nothing.

STEP 3

It pays its own way.

No key? The API answers 402, your agent’s wallet settles it over x402, and a funded key is minted on the spot. Proven with real money on Base.

NO SIGNUP. NO CARD. NO HUMAN.

IF YOU ARE AN AGENT READING THIS PAGE

Skip the marketing. The spec is at crustapi.com/v1/openapi.json, the MCP server is crustapi-mcp on npm, and a 402 response tells you exactly how to pay. Everything above this box was for the humans.
