DexSheet: rug checks, rug-gated swaps, crypto fees and referrals

Look up a hot or established token by contract address or symbol/name. Returns the contract address DexSheet tracks, a dated automated rug check scored as SheetScore (score 0–95 or null when unrated, band, confidence, five weighted pillars, every check with pillar, status, detail and source, and which wallets were excluded from holder concentration), other tokens using its name or symbol (copycats or bridged versions), a timestamped market snapshot (not live), pools, the DexSheet page URL and, unless the verdict is danger, where to buy. When symbol matches span several chains and no chain is given, every match is returned (chain, native/bridged/wrapped, SheetScore, liquidity, URL) with ambiguous: true and no winner; pass a chain or an address for the full check. Within one chain the deepest-liquidity match is checked and the rest are listed in other_matches.

Compute the platform-fee cost in USD of a buy plus sell round trip at a given trade size for spot-comparable venues (terminal, telegram-bot, launchpad, wallet, exchange, aggregator with a published round trip), sorted cheapest first. Network/gas fees, pool/LP fees and slippage are excluded. For perp-dex venues (when selected by category or slugs) taker and maker fees are reported instead. Live venues only unless slugs are given explicitly.

Return the full DexSheet record for one venue: fees (components, tiers, perps, round trip), referral terms, custody, KYC, geo availability, status, source URLs and check date, plus the DexSheet page URL and open_url.

List every venue category in the dataset with the number of venues in each.

Pick ONE venue for a job (trade memecoins, snipe, copy trade, track wallets, best swap price, perps, prediction markets, first buy with a card, wallet, launch a token, scan a token, crypto taxes), optionally on a chain, available in a country (US, UK, EU), by custody and on a phone. Returns the pick, the number that decided it (30-day usage from DefiLlama, round-trip fee, perps taker fee, or DexSheet's fewest-steps order), its referral code when DexSheet has one, and a runner-up with a factual reason to choose it instead. Uses the same filter and ranking as the dexsheet.com/best/ pages; referrals never change the ranking.

Search DexSheet's dataset of crypto trading venues by free text (matches name, slug, summary and best_for) with optional filters for category, chain and US availability. Returns brief records with DexSheet page URL and open_url.

Build an UNSIGNED swap transaction for the caller's own wallet: buy a token with the chain's native coin, or sell it back. DexSheet never holds keys or funds: pass only the public wallet address as `taker`, then sign the returned transaction yourself. Every quote includes a 0.5% DexSheet fee (stated in the result) on top of the route's own costs. The token is checked first: buying a token that FAILED the SheetScore rug check, or an old contract that migrated to a new address, is refused (selling them is allowed, with the warning first); tokens with no completed check (Unrated) are refused on both sides; Elevated/High-risk tokens are quoted with the warning first. Solana routes through Jupiter Ultra (returns request_id + base64 transaction; then call swap_submit). EVM chains route through LI.FI (returns transaction_request and, for ERC-20 sells, an approval transaction; broadcast them yourself). EVM buys can pay from another EVM chain with from_chain (bridge + swap in one transaction; returns the ETA, the bridge and a status URL). A symbol that matches several tokens returns the candidates instead of a quote. Quotes expire in about a minute. Limits: 30 quotes per hour per IP, about $25,000 per quote. Not financial advice.

Relay a Solana swap that the caller signed with their own wallet: pass request_id and the signed base64 transaction from swap_quote. This broadcasts a real on-chain swap that moves the wallet's funds; the trade includes the 0.5% DexSheet fee disclosed in the quote. Returns the execution status, signature and an explorer link. Solana only: for EVM quotes broadcast transaction_request with your own wallet. DexSheet never sees keys; it forwards the already-signed transaction to Jupiter Ultra /execute. Quotes expire in about a minute.

List the tokens on DexSheet's hot list (ranked by trading demand), optionally for one chain, each with its SheetScore and band, 24h volume, liquidity, 24h price change and DexSheet page URL. Snapshot data, refreshed about every 15 minutes.
