At the same time, after more than a year of launch and multiple iterations, the RootData API has gradually gained adoption by more and more customers, becoming their effective helper for data analysis, expanding business, and enhancing user activity, helping them seize the initiative in the wave of decentralized economy.

1. Why use the RootData API?

As a professional data interface provided by the RootData platform, RootData API allows users to access their huge Web3 data resources programmatically, including project information, financing records, investment institution data and character background, etc., aiming to improve the user's data acquisition efficiency and better meet customer needs such as data research, product integration, and enrich AI corpus.

Among these cooperative projects, AI projects are the main API partners in recent times, which is mainly due to RootData's structured trusted data. It can serve as a corpus to greatly enrich the professionalism of AI agents in the field of encryption, such as project financing and team information, thereby providing more professional and reliable services when answering user questions.

Products such as wallets and media are also the main customers of the API. This is because the RootData API can provide rich project data information to help them enrich the information on the project page, such as detailed introduction of the project, investors, team members, social media links, etc., thereby inspiring their users to generate more behaviors such as transactions, searches, etc.

In addition, for industry researchers, the RootData API can provide a series of fine-grained data such as popular projects and person lists, token prices and FDV, historical investment and financing data and trends. Any researcher can focus on secondary processing and sorting based on the data provided by these APIs, so as to gain insight into market hotspots, discover alpha opportunities and judge future trends.

Through the RootData API, customers can collect and organize data without having to arrange for dedicated personnel to collect and update data. While reducing costs, they can also efficiently obtain more comprehensive and accurate project data information. The RootData API is embedded in the workflow of various customers like "Lego bricks".

If you need to display introductions and links to a large number of projects in the product, or filter specific projects from a large number of projects, this API interface can help you obtain relevant information efficiently.

2. Character data
