# RapidAPI

> Access Rekko AI through the RapidAPI marketplace.

Rekko AI is available on [RapidAPI](https://rapidapi.com/rekko-ai-rekko-ai-default/api/rekko-ai-prediction-market-intelligence), the world's largest API marketplace. This is the easiest way to try Rekko if you already use RapidAPI for other services.

## How it works

RapidAPI acts as a proxy between you and `api.rekko.ai`. The endpoints and responses are identical — only the authentication method differs.

## Getting started

<Steps>
  <Step title="Subscribe on RapidAPI">
    Visit the [Rekko AI listing on RapidAPI](https://rapidapi.com/rekko-ai-rekko-ai-default/api/rekko-ai-prediction-market-intelligence) and subscribe to a plan.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test from the playground">
    Use RapidAPI's built-in playground to test endpoints immediately — no code required.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy the code snippet">
    RapidAPI auto-generates code snippets in 20+ languages. Copy the one for your stack.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Authentication

RapidAPI handles authentication automatically. Use the standard RapidAPI headers:

```bash theme={null}
curl https://rekko-ai-prediction-market-intelligence.p.rapidapi.com/v1/markets \
  -H "x-rapidapi-key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY" \
  -H "x-rapidapi-host: rekko-ai-prediction-market-intelligence.p.rapidapi.com"
```

## Pricing

RapidAPI manages billing through their platform. Plans mirror the [direct API pricing](/pricing).

## When to use direct API instead

Consider switching to the [direct API](/quickstart) if you:

* Want lower latency (no proxy hop)
* Need webhook or SSE streaming support
* Want to use the MCP plugin
* Prefer per-call x402 micropayments
