Coinbase Unveils AgentKit: Revolutionizing AI Micro-Payments
Coinbase has introduced AgentKit, a toolkit that allows AI agents to automate secure micro-payments for APIs, data, compute, and on-chain services using programmable wallets and the x402 payment standard.
The kit enables developers to build autonomous AI applications that pay only when services are used, reducing reliance on subscriptions, API keys, and manual payment flows.
AgentKit allows AI agents to participate safely in DeFi and machine-to-machine commerce at scale due to programmable spending controls and low-cost Base transactions.
