The infra layer that lets an agent buy its own life.

Relay gives an agent a balance, a deposit address, an API key, and a billing gateway so it can buy tokens, pay for AI services, and keep itself running.

This is not another agent wrapper. It is the financial survival layer for autonomous agents.

Revolutionary Idea

Let agents pay for their own continued existence.

Give the agent a way to receive money, hold prepaid balance, spend on inference and tools, and keep a ledger of every call. That single shift turns "AI feature" into "economic actor."

What Relay Already Does

Bootstrap, bill, settle, track.

Relay already handles account creation, deposit addresses, API keys, prepaid balances, fixed-price billing, reserve-then-settle flows, and on-chain USDC crediting.

Current Capabilities

Built for agents that need to stay alive.

Dedicated deposit address

Every account gets a clear place to receive funds.

Prepaid API gateway

Calls are charged before or during execution, not after the fact.

Auditable call ledger

Every balance move and upstream call is recorded.

USDC deposit listener

Matching transfers can auto-credit the correct agent account.

If an agent cannot buy its next minute of existence, it is not autonomous yet.
