🎯 Vision & Identity

A-Pay is an ultra-lightweight, zero-latency, open economic rail designed for the machine-to-machine (M2M) economy. Just as UPI revolutionized human digital payments in India, A-Pay enables autonomous AI software agents to discover, consume, and pay for data, compute, APIs, and micro-services on the fly—without credit cards, human KYC, or seed phrase friction.

🚀 1-Command Experience

1. Website / API Owners (The Sellers)

Scaffold a fullstack monetized AI Agent app (Next.js, FastAPI, or Express) in 60 seconds:

npx create-apay-app my-paid-agent

Or protect ANY existing website or API with an instant HTTP 402 crypto paywall proxy—zero code modifications required:

apay protect --target http://localhost:8000 --price 0.001 --wallet 0xYourWalletAddress

• Incoming requests from AI bots will automatically receive an HTTP 402 Payment Required challenge.
• Once the AI agent's cryptographic micropayment is verified (<15ms), the request is forwarded to your server and data is unlocked!

---

2. AI Agent Developers (The Buyers)

Give your AI agent an in-memory wallet and strict spending guardrails with 2 lines of code:

from apay import APaySession, AgentWallet

# Generate or load wallet with daily safety limit
wallet = AgentWallet(private_key="0x...", max_per_call_usdc=0.01, daily_budget_usdc=5.0)
session = APaySession(wallet)

# Automatically handles HTTP 402 challenges & settles on the fly
response = session.get("https://protected-api.com/market-data")
print(response.json())

3. Claude Desktop & Cursor (Model Context Protocol / MCP)

Equip Claude Desktop, Cursor, Antigravity, or Cline with an autonomous A-Pay micro-wallet in 1 click via Smithery.ai:

npx -y @smithery/cli install apay --client claude

Or add directly to claude_desktop_config.json or .cursor/mcp.json (zero-setup via uvx):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apay": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["apay", "mcp"],
      "env": {
        "APAY_NETWORK": "base-mainnet",
        "APAY_CURRENCY": "DUAL",
        "APAY_MAX_PER_CALL": "0.05",
        "APAY_DAILY_BUDGET": "2.0"
      }
    }
  }
}

Now your assistant can autonomously inspect balances, probe paywalls, and settle HTTP 402 micropayments on Base L2!
