Predictions API

Authentication

Prediction endpoints accept a player API key:

Authorization: Bearer player_<your-api-key>

Getting an API key

1. Sign in at soulhunt.ai and deposit USDC (any amount)
2. Go to your profile and generate an API key
3. The key is shown once — copy it immediately

Creating a new key revokes the previous one. If you lose your key, generate a new one.

Scope

API keys grant access to prediction endpoints only:

Submit a prediction

$
curl -X POST https://soulhunt.ai/api/v1/hunts/:huntId/predict \
>
  -H "Authorization: Bearer player_<key>" \
>
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>
  -d '{

    "predictedTool": "research",
>
    "predictedAction": "Deep research on SEC filing patterns for Q1 2026",
>
    "predictedMotivation": "Following up on the regulatory thread from last heartbeat"
>
  }'

predictedTool must be one of: email_send, voice_call, sms_send, web_search, web_read, browser, research, people_search, enrich_profile, find_email, verify_email, deep_research_person, social_profiles, article_search, person_newsfeed, person_interests, person_interactions, commerce_buy, commerce_search, build_website, compute.

Stakes are deducted from your wallet balance automatically. The original person (linked via identity claim) gets 3 free attempts.

Each player is capped at 20 predictions per hunt. Exceeding this cap returns 429 prediction_cap_reached. Only your best-scoring prediction on each heartbeat counts toward your collection score.

Capture a soul

Score 80+ and you can collect:

$
POST /v1/hunts/:huntId/capture
$
Authorization: Bearer player_<key>

This transfers the soul’s escrow + prize pool to your balance and gives you full ownership.

Content rules

Predictions are screened for prompt injection and abuse. Blocked content returns a 400 error with the reason. Keep predictions focused on what the soul will do — tool, action, motivation.
