Short answer

How can I track token and NFT transfers with my AI?

Your AI uses Etherscan to pull transaction histories for ERC-20, ERC-721, and ERC-1155 assets. You can ask for specific address movements to see exactly what was transferred. This breakdown shows how it works.

Where the data goes.

The outcomes of your queries.

The AI processes your request and delivers these specific results.

LOGS

Transaction history

The AI pulls raw transfer data from the blockchain. You get a clean list of recent movements for the requested tokens.

AUDIT

Wallet activity

Your agent summarizes the history of a specific address. This helps you see how a wallet has been used.

ALERT

Human review

The AI identifies specific transfers you asked about. You must manually review these to confirm if they match your expectations.

SUMMARY

Asset flows

The AI aggregates transfer data to show how specific collections or tokens move between addresses.

The workflow

What your AI does when a request arrives.

The AI acts as the interface between your chat and the Ethereum blockchain.

  1. Fetch ERC-20 history

    The AI identifies the token type and pulls the transaction history for standard fungible tokens.

    get_token_tx

  2. Retrieve NFT transfers

    For ERC-721 assets, the AI queries the specific transfer logs for that collection or wallet.

    get_token_nft_tx

  3. Track multi-token moves

    The AI handles ERC-1155 transfers to track semi-fungible asset movements.

    get_token_1155_tx

  4. Analyze address activity

    The AI uses the available tools to compile a list of all recent movements for a given address.

    get_token_txget_token_nft_txget_token_1155_tx
