NAME
slop-filtered-brief — research a topic without the ai-generated slop
SYNOPSIS
POST https://x402.agentutility.ai/slop-filtered-brief
Content-Type: application/json
X-PAYMENT: <signed-transferWithAuthorization>
{ ... }↳ first call → 402 Payment Required. Sign USDCtransferWithAuthorization, retry with theX-PAYMENT header.
DESCRIPTION
Research a topic without the AI-generated slop. Get back a brief from web, news, and X sources that pass ai-content-detector, with AI-flagged sources dropped before you see them. Composite: one call runs web-search plus news-search plus x-search, then scores candidate sources through ai-content-detector, excluding anything scored 0.65+ for probability of AI-generated. web-search is required, failing the call on error; news-search and x-search (skip with include_x: false) degrade instead, same for any single ai-content-detector call that times out, kept unscored rather than dropped. Short sources are kept unscored too, a style-signal heuristic, not forensic AI-detection. Returns the brief grouped by source type plus an excluded_ai_generated count. Use it as an AI-slop-filtered research API, human-sourced topic brief, clean research digest, or pre-citation research tool.
