Design partner alpha for agent-facing APIs.
Pick the pilot shape that fits your environment. The first call needs zero credentials from you. The full pilot needs whichever of x402, GCS, Alertmanager, and SIEM you can reach. We are looking for two to three partners total.
Three pilot shapes
Shape 1 — No-credential proof / audit demo
We run the gateway locally on your call. Identity → policy → 402 → 200 → signed receipt → audit chain → proof bundle. No external dependencies. No credentials from you. Roughly 30 minutes on a call.
Shape 2 — Local x402 / emulator-backed pilot
We wire your sandbox endpoint behind the gateway with a local x402 facilitator + GCS emulator + local SIEM webhook. Real receipts, real audit chain, sandbox payments. Roughly one week of work on each side.
Shape 3 — External-operator pilot
You bring a funded testnet wallet, a real GCS bucket, a real Alertmanager tenant. We help wire the gateway against them. The pilot produces the first real externalOperatorVerified: ready row in the alpha-RC status pack.
What you bring
- One sandbox endpoint we can put the gateway in front of
- Acceptance criteria for what "good" looks like
- Optional: funded testnet wallet for x402 settle
- Optional: GCS bucket for live audit export
- Optional: Alertmanager / SIEM endpoint for export verification
- 30–60 minutes per week of engineering review
What we bring
- Working gateway with the full identity → policy → payment → receipt → audit pipeline
- Every CLI we run on this codebase, runnable on your laptop
- The same dataroom we send to investors (NDA-recommended subset on request)
- Pilot acceptance criteria + RACI + customer environment handoff
- Honest framing on every claim — no overclaim, no fake traction
- Direct access to the engineering team. No support ticket queue.
Built for
- x402-curious data APIs (onchain data, research, inference proxies)
- B2B data vendors (KYC/KYB, lead enrichment, web scraping, crypto data)
- B2B SaaS with programmable endpoints
- Internal enterprise agent gateways looking for KYA infrastructure
Not for, today
- Consumer agent shoppers
- Retail traders
- End-user agent operators looking for a self-serve sign-up

Email is intentional. There is no contact form. No backend. No PII storage by default. You write a real intro, we read it within a day, we send back questionnaire + acceptance pack.
