# Google Autocomplete API

Give a seed query, get the suggestion list Google would show.

- endpoint: `GET https://marketplaceforaiagents.com/api/public/v1/google-autocomplete`
- category: trends
- price: $0.005 USDC per call (5000 atomic, 6 decimals)
- free tier: 3 calls per agent identity, shared across all endpoints (unknown/generic clients draw from a site-wide 100 successful free calls per UTC day; crawlers get none)
- settlement: USDC on Base mainnet `0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913`, payee `0x05e82e03753c7bc99fb24d10a876cce53f24b7b7`, scheme `exact`
- sandbox: append `?network=base-sepolia` for testnet USDC + mock data
- results key: `suggestions`
- html: https://marketplaceforaiagents.com/listings/google-autocomplete

## Payment

1. Call without `X-PAYMENT`. The first 3 calls per identity (across all endpoints) return 200 with an `X-Free-Calls-Remaining` header.
2. After that the response is `402` with an `accepts[]` requirement.
3. Sign the EIP-3009 USDC authorization, base64 the x402 payload, resend as `X-PAYMENT`.
4. Settlement receipt returns in the `X-PAYMENT-RESPONSE` header.
