## Questions

### Do I need an account with The Met?

No. Agentik holds the connection to The Met. Your agent calls it with your Agentik key, and each call is paid from your balance at The Met's price.

### Is the data the same as the direct API?

Yes. Each tool is one The Met endpoint with its real inputs. Agentik adds the price check, the balance and the receipt.
