Dappier

Dappier on xpay — Real-time data feeds without the signup friction

Dappier powers AI agents with live news, financial markets, sports updates, and web search capabilities. Instead of building custom scrapers or maintaining data pipelines, developers call Dappier's pre-built models to fetch current information across dozens of verticals—from local weather and breaking news to stock prices and research papers. On xpay, you get all 14 Dappier tools callable as MCP resources, billed per invocation, with no separate Dappier account required.

What's available

• real-time-search — Live web search covering news, stocks, weather, travel deals, and market data. Use this when you need the freshest information across any topic.
• stock-market-data — Real-time financial news, stock prices, and trade data. Ideal for financial advisors, portfolio trackers, and market-aware agents.
• nine-ten-news — Local news, weather, sports, and community updates for Northern Michigan (Cadillac, Traverse City). Perfect for hyperlocal applications.
• sports-news — AI-curated sports updates, scores, and personalized content from major sports outlets.
• research-papers-search — Access 2.4M+ open-access scholarly articles across physics, math, CS, biology, and more. Essential for academic and technical research agents.
• benzinga — Real-time financial news from Benzinga.com for market-moving insights.
• cafemom-parenting, lifestyle-news, methodshop, one-green-planet, wish-tv-ai, stellar-ai — Domain-specific data models for parenting advice, lifestyle trends, tech guides, sustainability content, Indiana local news, and solar/roof analysis.

When Dappier is the right tool

• You need live, current data that changes hourly (news, stocks, sports scores, weather).
• You're building an AI agent that answers time-sensitive questions and can't rely on training data cutoffs.
• You want pre-built, domain-specific models instead of writing custom web scrapers.
• You need hyperlocal or vertical-specific information (parenting, lifestyle, tech, sustainability).
• You're integrating financial or research data into a larger application without maintaining your own data infrastructure.

When to choose something else

• If you need historical data analysis spanning years, Dappier's real-time focus may not be the best fit; consider a data warehouse or time-series API.
• If you require custom data extraction from proprietary or non-public sources, you'll likely need a web scraping service or custom integration.
• If your use case is one-off or low-frequency, the per-call pricing may not justify the integration overhead compared to a manual search or API call.
• If you need guaranteed uptime SLAs with dedicated support, Dappier's xpay routing is best suited for applications that can tolerate occasional latency or rate limits.

Pricing snapshot

All 14 tools fall in the $0.003–$0.02 range. Pricing is transparent and metered; you pay only for calls you make.

Quickstart

Option 1: Dappier alone (recommended for Dappier-focused agents)

claude mcp add --transport http dappier "https://dappier.mcp.xpay.sh/mcp?key=YOUR_XPAY_KEY"

Replace YOUR_XPAY_KEY with your xpay API key (get one free at https://xpay.tools after email or Google signup). Once connected, your Claude Code agent can call Dappier tools by name—e.g., "Use real-time-search to find the latest AI funding news" or "Call stock-market-data to check Tesla's current price."

Option 2: All xpay providers in one connection

claude mcp add --transport http xpay "https://mcp.xpay.sh/mcp?key=YOUR_XPAY_KEY"

This unified endpoint exposes all xpay providers. Agents discover and invoke tools via xpay_discover(), xpay_details(), and xpay_run() meta-tools.

For Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, or VS Code (Copilot): Add a server entry to your mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dappier": {
      "url": "https://dappier.mcp.xpay.sh/mcp?key=YOUR_XPAY_KEY"
    }
  }
}

Why route Dappier through xpay?

• No Dappier signup. xpay holds the upstream credentials; you authenticate once with your xpay key and gain access to all 14 Dappier tools immediately.
• Pay-per-call, no subscription. Every invocation costs $0.003–$0.02. No monthly fees, no minimum spend. Ideal for experimental or low-volume use.
• MCP-native integration. Dappier becomes a callable resource in Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible editors—no custom API wrappers needed.
• Unified billing across providers. If you use other xpay providers (Tavily, Apollo, etc.), one invoice covers all of them.
• Transparent pricing and usage tracking. See exactly which tools you called, how many times, and what you spent at https://xpay.tools/dashboard.
