Solana Foundation and Google Cloud introduced Pay.sh, a service that allows AI agents to autonomously discover, connect to, and pay for APIs using stablecoins.

How Pay.sh functions

Agents do not require traditional accounts, subscriptions, or manual billing to access services on the platform, simplifying integration and monetization for programs.

After funding a Solana wallet, an agent can browse a marketplace of APIs and execute payments for individual requests on demand.

Billing model and pricing granularity

Payments are processed per request and can be charged down to fractions of a cent, enabling fine-grained consumption-based billing for automated agents and services.

The system relies on wallet-based settlement, so agents pay only for measured API usage without intermediary account management or recurring fees.

Standards and integrations

Pay.sh operates on the x402 standard with participation from Coinbase, ensuring compatibility with existing crypto infrastructure and custody options.

• Gemini
• Claude Code
• Codex
• Other AI service providers

The platform supports integrations with multiple AI providers to enable agents to select appropriate models and endpoints programmatically through the marketplace.

Access and partner roles

Solana Foundation and Google Cloud jointly position Pay.sh as infrastructure that connects on-chain wallets to off-chain AI services, facilitating automated economic interactions.

Coinbase participation is indicated as part of the implementation, and the announced integrations aim to provide a range of compute and model options for agent workflows.
