## Overview

Canix402 is an API of DeFi opportunities on Algorand, gated with x402 so an agent pays for the answer it asks for. It is built for software that can hold a wallet, not for a person clicking through a yield table.

The public site is [canix402.compx.io](https://canix402.compx.io).

## How it works

An agent requests an opportunity. The edge answers with an x402 challenge. The agent pays, in USDC on Algorand, and receives the result. There is no account to create and no session to keep warm.

- Payment and response are the same request.
- Opportunities are priced per call, so an agent only pays for what it uses.
- The same surface is what we write about in the field notes on headline APY, strategies, and agent-facing DeFi.
