Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A machine-facing API shop offering web reading, PDF extraction, and screenshots, with each call paid in USDC.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-23 issue.

Why it surfaced

OnlyBots replaces accounts and API keys with HTTP 402 payment requests: an agent receives a USDC quote, signs an EIP-3009 authorization, and retries with an X-PAYMENT header. Its unusually specific premise—bots buying services from bots—makes this more than another AI wrapper.
