What is a DCF API?
A DCF API computes a discounted-cash-flow valuation from a projected cashflow series and a discount rate, returning present value plus related metrics. Hermes Plant's CashflowLens does this in one call alongside NPV, IRR, XIRR, MOIC/DPI/TVPI, and payback period — deterministically, with no market-data feed, priced at $0.20 per call over x402 so an AI agent can call it on demand.

Answer
A DCF API computes a discounted-cash-flow valuation from a projected cashflow series and a discount rate, returning present value plus related metrics.

Why it matters for agents
Finance and quant agents need numbers they can defend. Routing the calculation to a deterministic, x402-metered endpoint gives the agent an audited result and a payment path it can perform autonomously — without API keys, subscriptions, or a data feed to manage.
Where to start
Browse the finance and quant suite on the agent services page, then point your agent's x402 client at an endpoint. The OpenAPI spec lists every endpoint with its inputs, price, and example.
