NodusAI - Public Documentation

Probabilistic likelihood assessments powered by real-time data analysis

Note: This repository intentionally excludes NodusAI's proprietary oracle engine. The core assessment logic, scoring algorithms, and production infrastructure are not included.

NodusAI is an outcome-focused research and verification platform designed to provide evidence-backed likelihood assessments for prediction markets and decision systems.

Rather than generating opinions or predictions, NodusAI produces structured research signals grounded in publicly available information, with clear sourcing, timestamps, and uncertainty.

What NodusAI Does

NodusAI helps users and developers assess how strongly current public evidence supports a specific outcome, such as outcomes listed in prediction markets or event-based questions.

Core capabilities include:

• Outcome-specific research assessments (YES / NO outcomes evaluated independently)
• URL-grounded analysis for prediction market questions
• Structured, machine-readable outputs (not free-form chat)
• Source citations and time relevance
• Pay-per-request access using x402 micropayments (USDC)

---

What NodusAI Is Not

To avoid ambiguity, NodusAI is intentionally not:

• A prediction engine
• A trading or betting tool
• Financial, legal, or investment advice
• A chatbot or conversational AI
• A system that guarantees correctness or outcomes

Outputs are probabilistic research signals, not assertions of fact.

x402 Micropayments

NodusAI integrates x402, enabling:

• Pay-per-request pricing
• USDC payments across supported networks
• No subscriptions required
• Deterministic payment → response flow

This model allows access to research signals without relying on tokens, ads, or data extraction.

API Example

// All examples use mock endpoints - replace with your actual API URL const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/v1/assess', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' }, body: JSON.stringify({ query: 'Will the Federal Reserve raise interest rates in Q1 2026?', sources: ['news', 'government', 'financial'] }) });

const result = await response.json(); console.log(result.assessment); // e.g., "Unlikely" console.log(result.likelihood); // { estimate: 0.35, lower_bound: 0.25, upper_bound: 0.45 }
