What is OrcaTrace?
Free indexes, sample response shapes, movers briefs and track-record routes let a developer inspect the service before choosing a paid endpoint. The whale scorecard ties logged calls to resolved market outcomes, offering context for past calls rather than every future wallet trade.
Signals, current digests, historical digests and deep research are different responses with different prices. Paid calls settle in USDC on Base through x402. A small request can be inexpensive, but an autonomous loop still accumulates charges across calls; retain identifiers and track the aggregate.
