Structured varietal data and verifiable research provenance for 150+ honey varieties, including the obscure long tail foundation models get wrong. Every compositional datum resolves to a real, published source (DOI/PMID). Per variety: color grade (USDA Pfund band with measured or estimated source), intensity, flavor profile, texture, use cases, best-for pairing tags, primary and secondary countries, and a citation_count pointing to the paid citations endpoint. Melvea IP only.
# 1. Ask the endpoint what it costs (no payment, no wallet needed): curl -i -X GET 'https://api.melvea.com/v1/catalog' # -> HTTP/1.1 402 Payment Required # the response carries the price, asset and pay-to address. # 2. Pay and retry with any x402 client: npx x402-fetch 'https://api.melvea.com/v1/catalog'
Endpoint: https://api.melvea.com/v1/catalog. Operated by api.melvea.com, not by Animica. Price and availability were correct at the last probe on 2026-10-01 and are set by the operator, who may change them.
