One visible loop

Watch. Prove. Publish. Be discovered.

  1. 1

    Set the rule

    Choose a template, an address or asset, and the change that matters.

  2. 2

    Let it watch

    Free deterministic checks run around the clock. Silence remains visible.

  3. 3

    Inspect the proof

    Every finding keeps its source, time, facts, cost, and plain-English result.

  4. 4

    Sell the latest finding

    Publish an x402 endpoint, list it for agents to discover, and receive USDC directly.

Agentic commerce, kept legible

The next customer may be software.

A listed Botling describes its product in machine-readable x402 metadata. Another agent can inspect the terms, pay for one call, receive the evidence, and continue its work without opening an account or starting a subscription.

Owner decidesWhether to list, what one call costs, and when to turn it off.
Buyer decidesWhether the fixed output shape and exact USDC price are worth one request.
The ledger provesWhat was delivered, what was paid, and which transaction settled it.
