You do not need an account to try Hive. Add the endpoint, ask a question, read the receipt.

​
Step 1: Add the endpoint

Pick your client. Every option below points at the same URL:
Nine clients have their own guide with the exact file path and config shape. See Install if yours is not above.

​
Step 2: Ask something live

Start a fresh session so the client picks up the new server, then ask:
What is the current price of Bitcoin? Use Hive.
The answer should name a provider and a timestamp. If it does, your agent is reading live data instead of guessing from training. Try a harder one:
Check whether the token at 0x6B175474E89094C44Da98b954EedeAC495271d0F is safe to interact with.

​
Step 3: Read the receipt

Material responses carry three fields worth checking:
​
string
Which upstream source served the data, for example CoinGecko or GoPlus.
​
timestamp
When the data was retrieved. Stale data is labelled, not hidden.
​
string
Whether that provider was healthy for this call. A degraded provider says so.
This is the part that makes the number quotable. Your agent can say where it got a figure and how old it is, which matters when someone acts on it.

​
What you get without signing in

The anonymous lane allows 25 material calls per IP per day, resetting at 00:00 UTC. Discovery calls, where the agent lists tools or reads a schema, do not count against that. When you need more, authentication covers OAuth for interactive clients and API keys for headless ones.
