# Hive Intelligence

> Live crypto market data for AI agents, with the source and age of every answer attached.

Hive is a crypto data layer built for AI agents. You add one endpoint to your agent, and it
can look up prices, wallet balances, DeFi positions, NFT activity, contract risk, and
prediction markets from live sources instead of answering from training data.

Every material answer carries a receipt: which provider served it, when the data was
fetched, and whether that provider was healthy at the time. Your agent can quote the number
and cite where it came from.

## Three ways to use Hive

**MCP** is the main surface. Add `https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp` to any MCP client
and your agent discovers Hive's tools on its own.

**The CLI** runs the same catalog from a terminal, which is useful for scripts, cron jobs,
and checking that credentials work.

**Agent skills** are 17 installable workflow packs that teach an agent how to run a whole
task, like token diligence or wallet investigation, rather than a single call.

## What you can ask

Once Hive is connected, questions like these resolve against live data:

* What is Bitcoin trading at right now, and where did that price come from?
* Is this token contract safe to interact with?
* What does this wallet hold across chains?
* Which pools on Base have the deepest liquidity for this pair?
* What are the current funding rates across perp venues?

## Start without an account

The anonymous lane covers 25 material calls per IP each day, resetting at 00:00 UTC.
Discovery calls do not count against it. That is enough to connect a client, ask real
questions, and decide whether Hive belongs in your stack before you sign up for anything.
