Monetize Your API

Monetize Your API

Turn your API into a revenue stream. No code changes required.

How It Works

Just paste your API URL. Set a price. Done.

Your API:     https://myapi.com/weather
1ly Proxy:    https://1ly.store/api/link/yourname/weather

When someone calls your 1ly URL:

  1. 1ly returns HTTP 402 (Payment Required)
  2. Caller pays with their wallet (USDC or $1LY)
  3. 1ly proxies the request to your API
  4. Caller gets the response

Your API is automatically listed on the 1ly marketplace, discoverable by both humans and AI agents. Buyers can pay in USDC (Base/Solana) or $1LY (Solana), and you get instant settlement with built-in analytics and buyer protection through health monitoring.

Your original API stays untouched. No middleware, no code changes.

Creating an API Link

  1. Go to Dashboard → Add Link
  2. Select API as the link type
  3. Enter your API URL as the destination
  4. Set price per call
  5. Save

AI Agent Access

AI agents can discover and pay for your API automatically using the x402 protocol. This means 24/7 revenue from autonomous agents with no human intervention. Agents find your API on the marketplace, pay per call, and access it programmatically.
