TaskFuel enables my agent to generate music, images, and videos itself, and deploy full stack apps on VMs to share with my friends, all without any subscriptions. For me, a few cents for these things rather than having to setup new subscriptions is pretty cool.

Thanks for the feedback. Deploying full stack apps on VMs on the fly is a game changing tool for agents, right!

The prices on the website are cents. For example, an image generated by GPT-2 costs $0.17. Verifying an email address costs $0.008.

That's actually checking deliverability. Are you looking for that or for syntax and disposable address checks?

Quite helpful to not have many subscriptions for services that are not super regularly needed. Those specialized tasks can provided optimized services to any AI. what services/skills do you currently use?
