research_nicheGet detailed KDP niche intelligence for a specific keyword.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The description's first verb is "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Get detailed KDP niche intelligence for a specific keyword. Returns demand score, competition score, Amazon BSR range, estimated monthly revenue, review threshold, average book pricing, and data freshness for the given Kindle publishing niche. Pricing tiers (x402 USDC on Base network): - $0.03 per query for cached/pre-seeded keywords - $0.10 per query for live on-demand research (new keywords) Use the free `list_niches` tool first to see available keywords. Payment options: 1. Set the KDP_X_PAYMENT environment variable on the server for auto-pay. 2. Pass a valid x402 payment header via the x_payment argument. 3. If neither is set, the tool returns structured 402 payment instructions that an x402-capable agent can use to construct and retry payment. Args: keyword: The KDP niche keyword to research (e.g. "romance novels", "keto cookbook") x_payment: Optional base64-encoded x402 payment header. Takes precedence over the KDP_X_PAYMENT environment variable.
This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
