# Composer > Composer runs priced, multi-step research workflows and returns a synthesized answer — you pay Composer, and Composer pays the underlying providers. Two workflows today: competitor pricing and a company/person diligence pack. ## How to use Composer is an MCP server. Add it as a connector and call two tools: - `plan_workflow(goal)` — free. Returns a priced plan (`plan_id`, steps, `total_cost` in USDC). - `run_workflow(plan_id)` — paid via x402. Pay the quoted price; Composer runs the workflow and returns the synthesized result. - MCP endpoint: https://composer.agenticpaywall.com/mcp - Agent card: https://composer.agenticpaywall.com/.well-known/agent-card.json - Machine-readable index: https://agenticpaywall.com/index.json ## Workflows ### Competitor pricing comparison (`competitor-pricing`) Composer runs a neural web search for the category's leading competitors, extracts the pricing tiers and plan names from their pricing pages, and synthesizes a single comparison you can act on — not just a list of links. Example goals: - Compare pricing for project management tools like Jira, Asana, and Monday.com - Show me how AI coding assistants price — Claude vs Copilot vs Cursor - Get a pricing comparison for all-in-one HR and payroll platforms Inputs — required: `category` (the product category to compare, e.g. 'project management software'). Optional: `num_results` (how many competitors to pull (default 5)). Indicative price: ~0.02 USDC (live quote authoritative). ### Company / person diligence pack (`diligence-pack`) Composer enriches the subject (org data), gathers recent funding/risk news, and — if you supply a token address — adds an on-chain price signal, then synthesizes a short diligence brief crossing all three. Example goals: - Run diligence on Anthropic — company profile and recent funding/risk news - Diligence pack on Stripe for an investment memo - Diligence a crypto project (ApeCoin) including its token price signal Inputs — required: `subject` (the company or person to diligence, e.g. 'Anthropic'). Optional: `num_results` (how many news/web results (default 5)), `token_address` (ERC-20 token address — adds the on-chain price leg when provided), `chain` (chain for the token (default 'base')). Indicative price: ~0.03 (more if the on-chain leg runs) USDC (live quote authoritative). ## Payment You pay Composer's quoted price for the outcome; Composer pays the underlying providers from its own wallet (principal/reseller — no escrow, no per-leg pass-through). Settlement is x402 (USDC on Base). The live quote from `plan_workflow` is authoritative. ## Providers Composer draws on a curated set of ~5 providers across data enrichment & intelligence (1), onchain & crypto data (1), web search (3). Individual providers are internal — you call Composer, not them. ## Scope Two fixed workflows today. Open-ended “compose any goal” requests are not supported yet — Composer routes your goal to one of the two below.
