Introduction
The payment infrastructure for AI agents. Enable any AI to pay for any API, instantly.
What is Dexter?
Dexter is the payment infrastructure for the AI economy.
We make it possible for AI agents to pay for APIs instantly, without credit cards, subscriptions, or API keys. Any AI can pay for any resource, and any developer can monetize their API - all settled on-chain in milliseconds.
The Problem We Solve
Today, AI agents are locked out of most valuable APIs:
- No credit cards: AI agents can't sign up for Stripe
- No identity: They can't verify email or pass KYC
- No subscriptions: They need pay-per-use, not monthly plans
- No discovery: How do they even find APIs to use?
Dexter solves all of this.
How It Works
This is the x402 protocol - a new HTTP standard where APIs respond with 402 Payment Required and clients pay instantly via crypto.
