# Orthogonal

> Unified API platform that gives AI agents access to hundreds of paid APIs through one skill URL, MCP, SDK, or API integration.

Orthogonal provides a unified gateway for AI agents to access hundreds of premium APIs without managing individual subscriptions. The platform enables developers to integrate web scraping, lead enrichment, social media, email verification, search, and other capabilities through a single skill URL that works with popular AI agents like OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Codex CLI.

The platform offers four integration methods to suit different use cases: Skills for AI agents, MCP for AI tools, SDK for applications, and direct API access for any other implementation. Users can get started in under 30 seconds by adding the skill URL to their AI agent, obtaining a free API key, and immediately accessing the full catalog of APIs.

- **Unified API Access** provides a single endpoint to hundreds of paid APIs including web scraping, lead enrichment, social media data, email verification, and search services without managing multiple subscriptions.

- **Pay-Per-Request Pricing** eliminates subscription fees by charging only for actual API calls made, with transparent per-request pricing for each integrated service.

- **Multiple Integration Options** supports Skills for AI agents, MCP for AI tools, SDK for applications, and direct API access to accommodate various development workflows.

- **Free Credits to Start** offers $10 in free credits for new users to explore the platform and test different APIs before committing funds.

- **Auto Top-Up Feature** (beta) automatically replenishes account credits to ensure uninterrupted agent operations.

- **Detailed Analytics** tracks API usage by service, showing call counts and spending breakdowns to help optimize costs and understand usage patterns.

- **Partner Ecosystem** integrates with established API providers including Olostep, ScrapeGraph, Linkup, Tomba, and many others for comprehensive data access.

To get started, sign up for a free account at orthogonal.com, copy your API key from the dashboard, and add the skill URL to your AI agent. The platform handles authentication and billing across all integrated APIs, allowing developers to focus on building rather than managing API subscriptions.
