    Financial infrastructure for AI agents to pay, trade, and move money with built-in risk controls.

    About

    Squid Pay is financial infrastructure built for autonomous AI agents. We enable agents to pay for services and compute, send and receive money, trade assets, and execute financial actions across multiple networks without requiring a human to manually approve every step. Instead of simply giving an agent access to a wallet or API key, Squid adds a risk and policy layer that evaluates transactions before execution. Our goal is to give AI agents the financial infrastructure they need to operate independently, while keeping their actions secure, programmable, and auditable.

    How it's made

    Squid Pay is built as a modular execution and risk layer for AI agents. We use TypeScript/Node.js for the core infrastructure, React/Vite for the interface, Supabase for authentication, data and transaction logs, and Vercel for deployment. For onchain execution, we integrate Solana and EVM infrastructure, using technologies such as Helius for Solana RPC, Jupiter for swaps, and 0x for EVM liquidity and routing. Agents interact with Squid through an SDK/API, while every financial action first passes through our policy and risk engine, which evaluates permissions, limits and transaction risk before execution. We are also building a learning layer that uses transaction outcomes and usage patterns to continuously improve risk decisions as more agents use the network.
