As apps are dying everything is turning into an API for agents to interact with, but we need a way to monetize those APIs so agents can work autonomously paying for services.

The Problem

AI agents need to autonomously purchase API access, but can’t use credit cards. The emerging standard is x402 micropayments on Solana, but implementing this today requires developers to run their own Solana nodes and manage complex backend infrastructure (like self-hosting facilitators such as Kora). Existing alternatives like Coinbase focus on slower L2 chains (Base) that can’t handle real-time AI workflows, and they lack end-to-end solutions for wallet management, off-ramping, and analytics.

Our Solution

We provide the complete backend infrastructure as a service. Developers simply sign up, receive an API key, and integrate our middleware with essentially one line of code. We handle high-frequency Solana transaction verification instantly, provide dashboards and analytics, manage user wallets, and handle off-ramping through trusted external providers.

Target Audience

API developers, SaaS founders, and indie hackers building tools and services for the agent economy.
