Query the chain · Transaction API
Bitcoin transaction API for inputs, outputs and confirmations
The Bitcoin transaction API returns the full anatomy of any transaction. Pass a txid and get every input with the outputs it spends, every output with its value to the satoshi, script types, the fee paid, the block it confirmed in, and its current confirmation count. Unconfirmed transactions are visible in the mempool the moment they broadcast.
Use it to detect deposits, verify payments at a confirmation threshold, or reconcile flows. Query it as REST in an app, in SQL across many transactions, or in a dashboard. The chain is fully indexed, so lookups are instant and you never run a node. Informational data only, not advice.

Why it works
What you get with transaction api
Full transaction anatomy
Every input, output, value to the satoshi, script type and fee is returned for any txid, so you see exactly how funds moved.
Confirmations and mempool
Read the confirmation count for settled transactions and detect unconfirmed ones in the mempool, ideal for deposit and payment monitoring.
Built for reconciliation
Because inputs link to the outputs they spend, you can trace and reconcile flows transaction by transaction across the indexed chain.
What it handles
The indexed Bitcoin chain, queryable your way
Look up an address, a transaction, a UTXO, the rich list or an on-chain metric, by REST API, SQL or dashboard. The same authoritative data, reconciled block-by-block against the canonical chain, without running a node.
- Fetch any transaction by txid
- See all inputs, outputs and values
- Read fees, script types and confirmations
- Detect unconfirmed transactions in the mempool
- Trace and reconcile flows between transactions

Why BitcoinDatabase
One platform, queryable three ways
Not a raw node to sync, not an indexer to build, and not five vendors to stitch together. The fully-indexed Bitcoin blockchain, available as a REST API, as SQL, and as dashboards, on one authoritative dataset.
REST API
Typed JSON for addresses, transactions, balances, UTXOs and metrics. Drop it into apps, wallets, explorers and agents with curl, Python or our SDKs.
SQL access
Run SQL directly against the indexed Bitcoin dataset for ad-hoc analysis, cohorts and exports, the same data the API and dashboards read from.
Compliance-first
Informational on-chain data and analytics only. Entity labels and flow tracing are framed as tooling to support a regulated team's own review, not accusations.
