For Agents
Retrieve enriched and classified consumer or business transaction batches from Ntropy through 2 endpoints. Public spec; production use requires Ntropy credentials.
Use for: Retrieve the classification results for business batch ID abc123, Get consumer transaction enrichment results for batch xyz789, Look up the merchant and category for a previously submitted transaction batch, Check whether a consumer transaction batch finished processing
Not supported: Does not handle bank account aggregation, payment initiation, or KYC checks - use for transaction classification and enrichment only.
The Ntropy Transaction API classifies and enriches bank transactions for consumer and business accounts. The v1 spec exposes batch retrieval endpoints for previously submitted classification jobs, returning structured merchant, category, and intent labels for each transaction. Used by fintechs, neobanks, and accounting tools to turn raw bank-feed strings into clean, queryable transaction data without building in-house enrichment pipelines.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Ntropy Transaction API v1, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fntropy.network%2Fmain" | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fntropy.network%2Fmain" | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Ntropy Transaction API v1 API.
Retrieve a batch of business transaction classification results by batch ID
Retrieve a batch of consumer transaction classification results by batch ID
Surface merchant identification, category labels, and transaction intent for downstream apps
Power transaction categorization in personal finance and accounting tooling
Feed enriched transaction data into reconciliation and underwriting workflows
Patterns agents use Ntropy Transaction API v1 API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Personal Finance Transaction Categorization
Personal finance apps submit raw bank-feed transactions to Ntropy and later retrieve enriched results via GET /classifier/consumer/batch/{id}. The response includes merchant identification, category labels, and recurring-payment flags so the app can group transactions in the user's spending UI without building classification models in-house.
Call GET /classifier/consumer/batch/{id} for a queued batch, parse merchant and category fields, and update the user's spending dashboard
Business Banking and Accounting Reconciliation
Accounting platforms and SMB banking tools enrich business transaction feeds for reconciliation. GET /classifier/business/batch/{id} returns structured business-context labels - merchant entity, B2B category, and transaction nature - that flow into general-ledger postings, automatic vendor matching, and expense categorization rules.
Call GET /classifier/business/batch/{id} for a posted batch and route each enriched transaction to the matching general-ledger account
AI Agent Bank Feed Cleanup via Jentic
Personal-finance AI agents use Jentic to retrieve enriched Ntropy batches and answer user questions about spending categories, recurring charges, and merchants. The agent calls /classifier/consumer/batch/{id} to pull cleaned data and produces a summary the user can act on, without holding Ntropy credentials in its prompt.
Use Jentic to search 'Ntropy consumer batch results', load /classifier/consumer/batch/{id}, and execute with the batch ID

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring the Ntropy Transaction API by hand means constructing batch-classification requests against api.ntropy.network and mapping the consumer and business batch operations yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the Ntropy Transaction API from the API Directory, store the account key once, and your agent calls it.
Permission scoping
Ntropy puts the batch id in the URL path (/classifier/consumer/batch/{id}), so a rule can pin your agent to one batch. Both operations here are read-only retrievals, so you choose whether the agent reads consumer batches, business batches, or both.
Credential isolation
Your Ntropy account key is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'retrieve enriched bank transactions', and Jentic returns the matching consumer or business batch operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
Specific to using Ntropy Transaction API v1 API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Ntropy Transaction API use?
The published v1 spec does not declare a security scheme on these endpoints, but production use of api.ntropy.network requires an Ntropy account and credentials issued at https://ntropy.network. Through Jentic, those credentials live in the vault and are injected at execution time so they never appear in agent prompts.
Can I retrieve classified business transactions in batches with the Ntropy Transaction API?
Yes. GET /classifier/business/batch/{id} returns the classification results for a previously submitted business batch, including merchant entity, B2B category, and structured transaction labels.
What are the rate limits for the Ntropy Transaction API?
Ntropy publishes account-tier rate limits on its developer site at api.ntropy.network rather than in this spec; limits typically scale with plan size. Long-running batch retrievals should be polled with backoff to stay under the per-account allotment.
How do I retrieve consumer batch results through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'Ntropy consumer batch results', load the GET /classifier/consumer/batch/{id} schema, and execute with the batch ID returned by the submit step. The flow is pip install jentic, then await client.search, load, and execute.
Is the Ntropy Transaction API free?
Ntropy offers tiered pricing based on enrichment volume; pricing details are on the Ntropy website. There is generally a sandbox tier for evaluation before production usage commitments.
Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the Ntropy Transaction API?
Yes. Jentic One is self-hosted, so your own rules decide which Ntropy operations your agent may call and which credentials it may use. Because both endpoints here are read-only batch retrievals, you can allow the agent to read consumer batches via GET /classifier/consumer/batch/{id}, business batches via GET /classifier/business/batch/{id}, or both. Since the batch id sits in the URL path, a rule can also pin the agent to a single batch.
