The Problem

AI agents are increasingly capable of reasoning, planning, and executing complex tasks. But when they need to interact with the real world — sending an email, fetching market data, processing a payment — they hit a wall. There’s no standard way for agents to:
  • Discover which services exist and what they can do
  • Evaluate which service is best for their task
  • Pay for usage without human intervention
  • Execute calls with a consistent, reliable interface
Every integration is hand-wired. Every payment requires a human. Every new service means more custom code.

​
The Solution

ACN is the capability layer for the agentic internet. It’s a marketplace where:

Agents Discover

Natural language search finds the right service from a curated catalog of providers. No browsing, no API docs — just describe what you need.

Agents Pay

USDC micropayments on Base via the X402 protocol. Agents pay per-call, autonomously, with no human in the loop.

Agents Execute

A single, consistent API to call any provider. ACN handles auth, routing, schema validation, and payment settlement.

Providers Earn

Service providers list their APIs and earn revenue from every agent call. New distribution channel with zero integration overhead.

​
Who is ACN For?

You’re building AI agents that need to interact with external services. Instead of hard-coding integrations, your agent discovers and pays for services through ACN’s unified API.
  • Single integration point for hundreds of services
  • Autonomous payments — no human approval needed per call
  • Quality scores and pricing transparency to make smart choices
  • Works with any agent framework (Claude, LangChain, CrewAI, and more)
You have APIs or services that agents could use. ACN gives you a new distribution channel — every agent on the network is a potential customer.
  • Set your own per-call pricing in USDC
  • Automated settlement — get paid daily
  • Zero integration overhead — we handle discovery, billing, and routing
  • Quality metrics that reward reliability

​
How It Works (30 Seconds)

  1. Discover — Agent describes what it needs in natural language
  2. Choose — ACN returns ranked results with pricing and quality metrics
  3. Pay & Execute — Agent calls the chosen service; payment is handled atomically
  4. Settle — ACN batches payments and settles with providers daily
