Market & company intelligence, inside your assistant

AI-powered market and company intelligence on how companies around the world grow, change and compete. Fokals derives advanced signals from company data, covering everything from technology and hiring to funding, buying intent and company health. Refreshed every day and brought together into a clear view of every market. There are two ways to use it, and they are one product: the same account, the same prepaid balance, the same prices and the same tools.

Two ways in

Getting started

1. Create your account at https://www.fokals.com/signup. It opens with $1 of credit.
2. To use an assistant: in its settings, add a custom connector with the address https://mcp.fokals.com/mcp, and sign in when it asks.
3. To use the API: create a key on your account page and send it with every request.

curl https://api.fokals.com/v1/account \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

curl -X POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/find_companies \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"technology":"HubSpot","hiring":true,"country":"US","limit":10}'

A key is shown once, when it is made. Keep it out of anything you share; a key you no longer trust can be revoked on the account page at once.

Prices

You pay for the companies you get, from a balance you add to by card. These are the standard prices; GET https://api.fokals.com/v1/prices gives today’s, with no key.

Each kind is counted on its own, from the first of each calendar month (UTC). A call that crosses a step pays the lower price only past it.

A call that would cost more than $0.25 does not run: it answers with its price. Send it again with max_usd set to what you agree to pay. Funds are good for 12 months from the day they are added, the oldest spent first. For more than 50,000 profiles a month, a data licence costs less: https://www.fokals.com/contact.

Limits

Answers and errors

An assistant is answered in a sentence or two, followed by the data as JSON. The API answers with the same two things apart:

{ "message": "What was done, in a sentence or two.", "data": { } }

When a call is not answered, the API says why with a status and { "error": { "code", "message" } }:

The whole API is described for a program at https://api.fokals.com/v1/openapi.json.

What the data holds

Companies, and what they publish: their websites, job boards, newsrooms and regulatory filings. Every fact carries the date it was observed. Fokals holds companies only: no people and no contact details.

The tools

Find companies by signal

find_companies · $0.04 a company, $0.08 by buying topic

Finds companies by what they show: a technology they run, a buying topic they show signs of, whether they are hiring, an announcement they made lately (funding, a launch, a partnership, a leadership change), a project their job ads state (a migration, a first team, a certification, an expansion, an AI build), a change on their pricing page, how ready their website is for AI agents, their health this week (a band, or a shift in positioning), their industry, business model or country, and how lately their website changed. The companies whose website changed most lately come first. Each company comes with its website, industry, technologies, open roles, buying topics, agent readiness score, projects and health band. Give at least one filter; count_companies says how many match, free, before this is called. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned; $0.08 ($0.05 past 10,000 in a calendar month) for each company when a buying topic is among the filters, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/find_companies
{
  "technology": "HubSpot",
  "hiring": true,
  "country": "US",
  "limit": 10
}

Count companies

count_companies · Free

Counts the companies that match a set of filters, and says what it would cost to get them. Free. Takes the same filters as find_companies, but not part of a name: to look for one company, use identify_company. Fewer than 10 is given as such. Use it before find_companies, so the person knows the size and the price of what they are asking for.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/count_companies
{
  "technology": "HubSpot",
  "hiring": true,
  "country": "US"
}

Enrich a list of companies

enrich_companies · $0.04 a company

Takes the person's own list of companies, by website address or name, and returns what is held on each: industry and business model, the technologies its website runs, open roles and hiring in the last 30 days, buying topics it shows signs of, its agent readiness score, the projects its job ads state, its health band this week, and when its website last changed. Use it to fill in, score or rank a list of accounts, leads or customers. A website address finds a company more surely than a name. At most 100 companies a call; send a longer list in parts. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/enrich_companies
{
  "companies": [
    "stripe.com",
    "shopify.com"
  ]
}

Company profile

company_profile · $0.10 a profile

One company in depth: what it sells and to whom, every technology its website runs and since when, its open roles by function, seniority and country with the latest postings, the buying topics it shows signs of with the signals behind them, its latest announcements by type, the latest changes on its website, how its traffic ranks, its agent readiness score with the evidence behind it, the projects its job ads state, the back-office software they name that its website does not show, its weekly health with the reasons, and the technologies it is likeliest to add next. Use it to research an account before a call, to explain why a company is on a list, or to compare companies. Costs $0.10 ($0.06 past 10,000 in a calendar month) for the profile, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree. For more than 50,000 profiles a month a data licence costs less.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/company_profile
{
  "company": "stripe.com"
}

What changed at my companies

company_changes · $0.04 a company

What is new at the person's own companies since a date: changes on each website (a technology added or dropped, a new market, language, currency, page or app, a price raised or cut, a plan or a free plan added or dropped, a sales motion or customer size that moved, a title reworded) and the company's announcements by type (funding, launches, partnerships, leadership changes, expansion). Each change comes in plain words. Use it for a weekly check on a list of accounts, or to find a timely reason to get in touch. A company with nothing new costs nothing and is named as such. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/company_changes
{
  "companies": [
    "stripe.com",
    "shopify.com"
  ],
  "since": "2026-10-01"
}

Search job postings

search_job_postings · $0.04 a company

Searches the open job postings of companies: by words in the title, function, seniority, country, remote or on site, a technology the posting asks for, the hiring company's industry, pay, and how lately the posting appeared. The latest postings come first, each with its company, function, seniority, pay where stated, and link. Use it to find who is hiring for a role, to spot a team being built, or to check hiring at a list of accounts. Give at least one filter. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree. A posting itself is not charged: the price is for each company the postings belong to.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/search_job_postings
{
  "title": "data engineer",
  "country": "US",
  "work_mode": "remote",
  "limit": 10
}

Similar companies and competitors

similar_companies · $0.04 a company

Finds companies like a given one, the most alike first, each with what it shares with the one given: the labels in common (business model, offering, customer size, pricing, growth stage, home country) and the technologies in common. Ask for lookalikes to grow a list from a best customer, or for competitors to see who sells the same kind of thing to the same kind of customer. The company given is not charged. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/similar_companies
{
  "company": "shopify.com",
  "kind": "lookalikes",
  "limit": 10

Customers, partners, integrations and investors

company_connections · $0.04 a company

The other companies a company's own website names, and as what: its customers, partners, integrations and investors, each by website and, where held, by name. And the reverse: the companies whose websites name this one, and as what, which shows whose customer or partner it is. Taken from links a page puts under a heading of its own ("Trusted by", "Our partners", "Integrations", "Backed by") and seen in the last 60 days; a company whose pages name nobody that way has none. Only the company asked about is charged. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/company_connections
{
  "company": "stripe.com"
}

Which company is meant

identify_company · Free

Lists the companies a name or a website address could mean, the surest first, each with its website, its country and whether it has been read. Free. Use it when a name is ambiguous or a paid tool said a company is not held, then pass the id of the right one to the other tools. A company that is not held at all can be asked for with request_company.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/identify_company
{
  "company": "Stripe"
}

Market breakdown

market_breakdown · $0.05 a question

Answers a question about a market as a whole: how the companies that match a set of filters divide by one attribute (industry, business_model, country, growth_stage, customer_size, price_tier, sales_motion, pricing_model, region, sic, technology, buying_topic), with the number of companies under each value and the total. Takes the same filters as find_companies, or none for every company held. Use it to size a segment, to see which technologies or buying topics lead in an industry, or which countries a kind of company is in. It returns counts, not companies. Costs $0.05 a question, whatever its size, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a question nothing matches costs nothing.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/market_breakdown
{
  "technology": "Shopify",
  "by": "country",
  "limit": 10

Find companies by description

find_companies_by_description · $0.04 a company

Finds the companies whose websites describe the business described, the closest first, each with how close it is out of 100. Say what the companies do in a sentence, in the person's own words, instead of choosing filters: it finds companies whatever their industry label. Optionally in one country (the head office's country where it is known, otherwise the main market the company's website serves). A company under 50 is not returned. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

  "limit": 10
}

Companies described alike

companies_described_alike · $0.04 a company

Finds the companies whose websites describe the same kind of business as a given company's does, in their own words, the closest first, each with how close it is out of 100. Where similar_companies compares labels and technologies, this compares what each website says, so it also finds companies of the same kind that are labelled or built differently. A company under 50 is not returned. The company given is not charged. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Vendor scorecard

vendor_scorecard · $0.05 a question, $0.10 a figure past 25

A technology vendor's scorecard, month by month: how many companies ran it at the start of each month, how many took it up and how many dropped it, the net change and the churn rate, and the rival tools the companies that took it up came from and the ones that dropped it moved to; with the last 30 days to today beside them. Divide it by company size, industry, growth stage or country to see where it wins and where it loses (industry and growth stage are the companies' labels today), and ask for the other technologies of its category ranked by net gain. A month marked partial was not observed from its first day. Use it for competitive research on a vendor, to see where a rival is losing customers, or to size a vendor's momentum. It returns counts, not companies. Each month of each segment is one figure. Costs $0.05 a question for up to 25 figures and $0.10 for each figure past 25, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a question nothing matches costs nothing. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

  "technology": "HubSpot",
  "months": 6,
  "segment": "size"

Companies like my customers

companies_like_customers · $0.04 a company

Finds the companies that look today the way the person's own customers looked when they bought. Give up to 20 customers, by website, name or id, each with the day it bought where known, and the technology they bought where there is one. Each company comes with its row and the reasons it matches, in plain words: what it has been doing lately that the customers did before they bought, and what it has in common with them today. The answer also says for which customers a buying moment was found, and what most of them did before buying. Results are strongest when the customers' buying dates are known or a technology is given; without either, companies are matched on how alike they are to the customers today. The customers, and companies already running the technology, are left out. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Company health

company_health · $0.08 a company

A weekly health reading for each of the person's companies: a band in words (signs of distress, worth watching, steady, growing, breaking out), a distress score and a breakout score from 0 to 100, the reasons in plain words, the shifts in positioning it shows (moving upmarket or downmarket, turning to AI, selling to a new buyer, prices going up or down), and the scores week by week. Use it to spot accounts at risk or taking off, and to time an approach. A company with no health reading costs nothing and is named as such. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.08 ($0.05 past 10,000 in a calendar month) for each company with a health reading, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Likely next technologies

likely_next · $0.04 a company

What companies are likely to add next. Give the person's own companies to get, for each, the technologies it is likeliest to add in the coming weeks, each with an estimated likelihood (0 to 1), with the support counts behind it: the changes behind it in plain words, how many companies made the same change and how many of them then added the technology. A likelihood is an estimate, never a certainty. Or give a technology to get the companies likeliest to add it next, likeliest first, a page at a time, with the changes that most often come before it. Use it to reach an account before it buys, or to build a list of the next buyers of a product. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile.

Revenue nowcast

revenue_nowcast · $0.08 a company

An estimate of each of the person's US-listed companies' revenue growth for the quarter it has just ended and not yet reported: the estimated growth on the same quarter a year before, as a percentage, with the quarter it is for (about the day it ends), the day the estimate was made and the growth the company last reported beside it. Estimates are made every week for companies that file quarterly results with the US securities regulator, from the end of a quarter until the company puts out its results. The answer says how close the estimates have come on past quarters, beside last quarter's growth taken as the estimate. An estimate is never a certainty. Growth above +200% or below -80% is given at those limits. Use it to see a quarter's likely revenue growth before the results are out, to set it beside expectations, or to rank a list by likely growth. A company whose results are already out, or with no estimate, costs nothing and is named as such. At most 100 companies a call. Costs $0.08 ($0.05 past 10,000 in a calendar month) for each company with a revenue estimate, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Buying intent week by week

intent_history · $0.08 a company

The buying topics each of the person's companies has shown signs of, week by week for up to 12 weeks: for each week, each topic with its score from 0 to 100, whether it was surging (rising sharply against the company's own recent weeks) and how many signals were behind it, with the company's latest signals by date and kind. Give a topic to follow just that one. Use it to see whether interest is building or fading, to time an approach, or to explain a score. A company with no intent held costs nothing and is named as such. Costs $0.08 ($0.05 past 10,000 in a calendar month) for each company with its intent history, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Sales team from job ads

sales_team · $0.04 a company

The sales team each of the person's companies is building, as its own job ads show it: open sales roles now by role (SDR or BDR, account executive, account manager, sales engineer, sales leadership, sales operations, partnerships), by the customer segment they sell to and by country; the median base and on-target pay the ads state, by role; the sales tools the ads name; the last twelve closed weeks; and the latest open sales postings with what each states (base, on-target pay, quota, ramp, where leads come from). Pay is what an ad offers, not what is paid. Use it to size a sales team, see where it is expanding or moving upmarket, or benchmark an offer. A company with no sales postings costs nothing and is named as such. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Funding filings

funding_filings · $0.04 a company

The notices of a private fundraise each of the person's companies has filed with the US securities regulator (Form D), newest first: when it was filed, the amount offered and the amount sold so far, the date of the first sale, the company's industry and place as filed, and whether it amends an earlier notice. A company that has not raised money this way has none. Use it to see how much a company raised and when, beyond what it announced. A company with no filing costs nothing and is named as such. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Headcount over time

headcount_history · $0.04 a company

How many people each of the person's companies employed over the years, oldest first, each figure with the date it is as of and whether it comes from the company's annual report or a public record. Use it to see whether a company is growing or shrinking. A company with no headcount held costs nothing and is named as such. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile.

Website traffic month by month

traffic_history · $0.04 a company

How popular each of the person's companies' websites has been, month by month for up to 13 months: each month, the smallest group of the most visited websites in the world it was in (top 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, 50,000, 100,000, 500,000, 1 million, 5 million, 10 million or 50 million), with the latest month and the trend. A smaller group is more traffic. Use it to see whether a company's audience is growing. A company whose website is not ranked costs nothing and is named as such. Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Market trends over time

market_trends · $0.05 a question, $0.10 a figure past 25

Each figure is a count, the number of companies it is out of, the rate, the rate the window before, the growth between them, and an index. Cut it by industry, sector, country, company size or exchange, and follow one subject such as a technology. Use it to see what is growing in a market and where. It returns figures, not companies. Costs $0.05 a question for up to 25 figures and $0.10 for each figure past 25, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a question nothing matches costs nothing.

Lists the values find_companies and count_companies filter by, with the number of companies under each where it is known: technologies (search by name), buying topics, industries, business models, countries (by the head office's country where it is known, otherwise the main market the company's website serves), and the types of announcement.

Ask for a company to be added

request_company · Free · changes what your account holds

Asks Fokals to add a company it does not hold yet, by the company's own website address. Free. The website is checked and, if it is a company website in the languages Fokals covers, read: that can take a few days, after which the other tools return it. The answer says where the company stands: held already, asked for, or outside what is covered.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/request_company
{
  "website": "example.com"
}

Report a problem

report_problem · Free · changes what your account holds

Sends a report to the people who run Fokals: data that is wrong or missing for a company, a tool that did not work, or an idea. Free. Use it when the person says an answer was wrong, and tell them it was sent.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/report_problem
{
  "kind": "wrong_data",
  "message": "The head office is listed in the wrong country.",
  "company": "example.com"

Enrich a long list into a file

enrich_to_file · $0.04 a company · changes what your account holds

Enriches a long list of the person's own companies and hands the result over as a spreadsheet file (CSV) instead of an answer: one line a company, with its industry, business model, every technology, open roles, buying topics, agent readiness score, the projects its job ads state, and dates. Up to 10,000 companies a call. The person downloads the file signed in on their account page, for 7 days. Use enrich_companies instead when the list fits in an answer (100 companies). Costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company returned, taken from the person's prepaid balance; a company that is not held costs nothing. A company this account has paid for is free to it again for 30 days in an answer of the same kind or a cheaper one: a profile covers the company's list rows, a list row does not cover a profile. A call that costs more than $0.25 returns its price instead of running: tell the person the price and call again with max_usd once they agree.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/enrich_to_file

Watch companies

watch_companies · Free · changes what your account holds

Watches a list of the person's own companies and emails them what is new, every week or every day: website changes (a technology added or dropped, a new page or market, a price raised or cut, a plan or a free plan added or dropped, a sales motion that moved) and announcements. Setting a watch is free. Each digest then costs $0.04 ($0.02 past 10,000 in a calendar month, $0.01 past 100,000) for each company with something new, and nothing when nothing is new, taken from the prepaid balance without asking again and outside the monthly limit: say so, and set a watch only when the person has agreed to that. Up to 1,000 companies an account.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/watch_companies
{
  "companies": [
    "stripe.com",
    "shopify.com"
  ],
  "every": "week"
}

Stop watching companies

unwatch_companies · Free · changes what your account holds

}

Watched companies and the latest digest

watched_companies · Free

Lists the companies the account watches, how often it is sent what is new, and the latest digest with what it held and cost. Free: a digest was paid for when it was sent.

It takes no inputs.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/watched_companies
{}

Add funds with a payment token

add_funds · Free · changes what your account holds

Adds money to the person's Fokals prepaid balance with a Stripe shared payment token, for an agent that pays on the person's behalf. Ask the person first and agree the amount. An agent that can open a web page should pay on the Fokals payment page instead, https://buy.stripe.com/aFa8wPeDKalk0Qf5BL3F600: Stripe's checkout there takes a Link Pay Token from the person's Stripe Link wallet (--credential-type link_pay_token --merchant-account-id <the page's data-stripe-merchant-account>); pay with the email of the person's Fokals account, which the payment is credited to. Otherwise make a one-time token in their Stripe Link wallet, scoped to Fokals (Stripe profile @fokals): npx @stripe/link-cli spend-request create --credential-type shared_payment_token --network-id profile_61Vf0stFYRLwTaqWfA6Vf0stFTA8Y6uis82efPIES3cW --payment-method-id <their card, from payment-methods list> --amount <cents> --currency usd --context "<at least 100 characters: what the funds are for, which the person reads when approving>" --request-approval. Once they approve, pass the token (spt_...) here with the same amount in dollars, from $5.00 to $500.00. The funds are good for 12 months. The call itself is free: it charges the card, not the balance, and the same token is never charged twice. Without a Link wallet the person adds funds on their Fokals account page.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/add_funds
{
  "payment_token": "spt_1QxExample",
  "usd": 25
}

Balance and prices

account_balance · Free

It takes no inputs.

Example:

POST https://api.fokals.com/v1/account_balance
