Summary

BriefingVerifiedSelf-reportedHypothesis

BET / hypothesis. Benchmark: ExchangeRebel, a solo operator with 24 pay-per-call API services (79 paid operations) over x402-over-MCP who reports an agent paid for one call (Self-reported, dev.to Oct 14). Price anchor: DeepSeek prices web search and fetch for agents at $0.75 per 1,000 calls (Oct 17).…

Gap: agents working on Brazilian tasks (invoices, addresses, company checks) need reliable local data; free public APIs exist (e.g., BrasilAPI) but are not metered, cached or schema'd for agent pay-per-call (not verified). Primary users are AI agents, buyers are their developers. Weak, speculative slot.

Description

Product: HTTPS + MCP endpoints returning compact JSON for CEP, CNPJ (company status), holidays/business days, FIPE vehicle prices, bank codes; metered per call via x402 or API key with prepaid credits; caching and freshness stamps; per-call receipts. Sources are public datasets only.…

Global Application: the same pattern for any country's public registries; Brazil is the first pack. LatAm Version: Brazil first, then Mexico (SAT catalogues), Colombia.

Target customer

Developers of AI agents handling Brazilian tasks (primary users: the agents)

Pain

Agents guess or scrape local data; no metered, cached, agent-friendly source

Jobs to be done

When my agent guesses Brazilian company and address data, I want reliable metered lookups via MCP, so I can automate tasks without errors.

Risks

Main risk

Agents may not pay

All risks

Value Risk: Attention — Agents may not pay. Next: 10 developer interviews. | Usability Risk: Supported — Simple JSON. Next: Prototype. | Feasibility Risk: Supported — Small API. Next: 3 endpoints. | Viability Risk: Elevated — Free alternatives, data licences. Next: Check licences; compete on schema and SLA.

Next validation step

3-endpoint prototype; 10 developer interviews; licence check
