The payment layer for agent-consumed APIs

Get paid by AI agents.

Wrap any data endpoint with the Rate SDK and set a price per call. When an AI agent needs your data, it pays you through x402 or MPP. No new billing system. No new account for every agent.

How Rate works

Three steps. No new billing system to build.

You already have an API. Rate adds the pieces an AI agent needs that a human developer never did — quote, pay, receive, receipt.

Step 01 · Install SDK
$ npm i @rate/sdk
import { Rate } from "@rate/sdk";
const rate = new Rate({
payout: "0x9c1a…",
});
your code is untouched
STEP / 01

Wrap

Drop the SDK around your endpoint

Install @rate/sdk and wrap any route handler. Your code, your hosting, your auth — untouched. Rate adds the agent-payment handshake around it.

Step 02 · Set policy

Price

Set what each call is worth

Flat per-call, tiered by query depth, or session-based. Define the schema agents see and the policy they have to follow. All as config — no code branching.

Earn

Agents pay, you get paid in USDC

Agents discover your endpoint through the catalog or a direct link. They quote, pay over x402 or MPP, and your handler runs. USDC arrives in your wallet on the next block.

One SDK. No rewrite.

Wrap your endpoint.
Start earning from agents.

Drop the Rate SDK around the handler you already have. Set a price, and Rate adds everything an AI agent needs to pay you — quote, payment handshake, and signed receipt. Your business logic, your auth, and your hosting stay untouched.

  • Set a different price per endpoint, or by query depth
  • Agents pay over x402 or MPP — you collect USDC
  • Signed receipts logged for every call, exportable as CSV
  • Built-in replay protection and idempotent retries

// wrap your existing route handler.
 
import { Rate } from "@rate/sdk";
 
const rate = new Rate({
apiKey: process.env.RATE_KEY,
payout: "0x9c1a3d…f80e", // your USDC wallet
});
 
// your existing handler — business logic untouched
app.get("/v1/business",
rate.charge({
price: "$0.85", // per call
rails: ["x402", "mpp"], // agent payment methods
}),
async (req, res) => {
const data = await lookupBusiness(req.query.ein);
res.json(data); // rate signs the receipt
}
);
Who this is for

Enterprise data products,
now consumable by AI agents.

Your existing endpoint is already machine-consumable and naturally priced per record. Rate adds the last mile: a way for an agent to discover it, pay for one call, and trust the response.

BUSINESS VERIFICATION
01 / 06

KYB & beneficial owners

EIN lookups, corporate registries across jurisdictions, officer histories, sanctions hits, UBO traces.

Example agent flow
An underwriting agent verifies a counterparty before approving a wire — pulls registry, officers, and sanctions in one call.
CREDIT & RISK
02 / 06

Credit signals & risk scoring

Commercial credit pulls, trade-line lookbacks, fraud signals, and risk scoring on businesses and individuals.

Example agent flow
A lending agent runs a risk pull mid-onboarding to choose between auto-approve, manual review, or decline.
BACKGROUND & IDENTITY
03 / 06

Background screens & ID verification

Background checks, watchlist screens, identity verification, and adverse-media sweeps.

Example agent flow
A hiring agent runs the screen the moment a candidate accepts a verbal — surfaces flags before the offer letter.
B2B ENRICHMENT
04 / 06

Company & contact enrichment

Firmographics, technographics, contact data, intent signals, and account-level intelligence.

Example agent flow
A GTM agent enriches a target account before drafting outreach — routes high-intent matches to a human AE.
PROPERTY & PARCEL
05 / 06

Property records & assessor data

Parcel records, mortgage history, valuations, assessor data, and ownership chains across US counties.

Example agent flow
An investment agent pulls parcel + mortgage during diligence on a target portfolio — flags liens before LOI.
MARKET & MEDIA
06 / 06

Adverse media & market intel

Adverse-news search, court-record sweeps, market intelligence runs, and structured research outputs.

Example agent flow
A compliance agent sweeps adverse news on every new client during onboarding — blocks based on policy.
