AI Payment Infrastructure for Autonomous Agents

QBT Labs builds the payment stack for autonomous agents. Not wallets. Not checkout flows. Infrastructure — policy, settlement, receipts, and audit — so agents can pay for APIs and tools without human intervention.

What the Stack Covers

Who This Is For

  • AI agent builders who need production-grade payment infrastructure beyond a wallet
  • API providers who want to monetize their endpoints for autonomous agents using x402
  • MCP server operators building paid tools for Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf
  • Teams deploying multi-agent workflows that require spend policy and settlement across chains
Source-backed architecture

Built around open standards, not private billing assumptions

The AI payments stack follows the public x402 HTTP 402 payment model, MCP's tool-integration pattern, and stablecoin settlement rails. QBT Labs adds the missing production controls around those standards: budgets, allowlists, signer isolation, receipts, and audit logs.

“A wallet can sign. Production infrastructure decides whether the agent should sign, records why it signed, and leaves a receipt finance can audit later.” — Aggelos Kappos, Founder @ QBT Labs

How to Get Started

The x402 tooling installs in under 5 minutes:

npm install @qbtlabs/x402
