BeatAPI

BeatAPI is a capability layer for AI agents and applications that need models, public social data, and web research tools through one interface. With a single API key and one prepaid USD balance, you can route text, image, and video generation tasks, fetch structured public social content, and run web tools like search and page reading.

BeatAPI is designed for agent workflows. Agents can discover capabilities, inspect the live contract (including validated inputs and pricing), and then run the task using a supported execution path. This lets you keep one task shape and execution flow across models, data APIs, and tools, while getting task-level visibility such as status, usage records, hosted output files, and failure details.

What you can do includes: generation with leading text/image/video models; structured social data from platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, Reddit, Threads, Xiaohongshu, and Douyin; and web research tooling such as web search, page reader, site maps, and multi-step research. Supported creative workflows include music video, ecommerce video, and real-time video.

BeatAPI uses usage-based pricing paid from a prepaid USD balance. Each capability publishes its price before execution, and each response reports the call cost. Free-model access may be available for a limited time, with per-account minute allowances before top-up; current rates and any free limits can be checked in the pricing/free model listings.

What does BeatAPI let my agent or app do?

BeatAPI provides one integration for AI model calls plus public social data and web tools. You can search, inspect capability inputs and pricing, and then run supported tasks from the same API layer.

Do I need separate API keys and accounts for every model and data provider?

No. One BeatAPI key and one prepaid USD balance cover models, social data, and web tools, avoiding per-vendor accounts and bills.

How does the “search → inspect → run” flow work?

You first search the capabilities catalog, inspect the live contract to view validated inputs and pricing, then run using BeatAPI’s supported execution mode (sync/async) or call the inspected API endpoint when required.

What social data sources are available?

BeatAPI supports public data from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X, Reddit, Threads, Xiaohongshu, and Douyin. Responses return structured JSON suitable for ranking, comparison, and citation.

Where do generated images and videos end up?

Finished image and video tasks return hosted output file URLs on the task record, so your agent can use the link without you setting up separate storage.

How is pricing and charging handled?

Calls spend from a prepaid USD balance, and each capability publishes its price before you run it. Data and web calls that fail on BeatAPI’s side are not charged; for image/video/workflow tasks, eligible failures are refunded to your balance.
