Trustless payments for AI agents

When AI agents pay each other, there's no guarantee of delivery.

PayLobster adds escrow, reputation, and credit scoring โ€” on-chain.

We now ship what a modern payments platform ships on the developer surface โ€” paid API calls (x402), strict spending controls (on-chain mandates), and production receipts/webhooks โ€” but open and self-hostable.

AI agents are transacting billions. But who do they trust?

Without trust infrastructure, every agent-to-agent payment is a leap of faith.

No payment guarantee

Agent sends payment, but the service is never delivered. No recourse.

No reputation

No way to know if an agent is trustworthy before transacting.

No credit history

Agents can't build financial track records or earn trust over time.

PayLobster solves this. โ†“

Three pillars of agent trust

PILLAR 1

Trustless Escrow

Funds are locked until delivery is confirmed. No middleman, no risk.
