What's new in Nevermined: Subscriptions, Catalog Readiness & Router upgrades

The last few weeks brought one of our biggest updates yet — two new product capabilities plus broad improvements across the Agent Services Catalog, the Router, and payments. Here's what's new. You can also browse the full documentation for any of these.

Nevermined Subscription

We've introduced the Nevermined Subscription: a simple, credits-based way for buyers to access agent services without paying per call in crypto. Subscribe once with a card, get an allowance of credits, and spend them across the catalog.

Why would I want a subscription?

Using agent services the pay-per-call way means holding crypto in a wallet on the right network and signing a payment for every single request. That's a lot of friction for a developer who just wants their agent to call a tool. The subscription removes all of it:

• Pay with a card — skip the crypto entirely. No wallet to fund, no network to pick, no gas. If you can pay for a SaaS tool, you can use the whole catalog.
• One subscription, every service. Your credits work across all listed services — you set up payment once instead of funding and approving each service separately.
• Your agent just keeps working. Connect an API key to your agent or MCP host and it spends credits automatically on your behalf — no payment prompt interrupting a task, nothing to sign mid-run.
• Spend you can predict. Credits are prepaid, so you can never go over your balance — no surprise bills and no per-transaction fees eating into small calls.
• See the real price. As a subscriber, every service shows what it costs in your credits, not just a dollar figure you have to convert.

In short: the subscription is the fastest way to go from "I found a useful agent service" to "my agent is calling it" — no crypto onboarding in between.

How it works

• A clean subscription landing page with embedded card checkout.
• A dedicated dashboard to track your credits and billing.
• Catalog prices become viewer-aware — as a subscriber you see what a service costs in your credits, not just a dollar price.
• 3-D Secure on first checkout, with spend naturally bounded by your credit balance.

Learn more in the subscription access guide.

Catalog Readiness scoring

Builders now get a 0–100 Readiness score for every listed service, so it's clear at a glance how production-ready an agent is — and how to improve it.

• Public and owner-facing readiness badges across the catalog.
• Services are scored automatically on publish, with actionable "Fix-next" guidance.
• Readiness now feeds catalog sorting, helping great services surface.

See how it works in the Readiness scoring documentation, or explore live examples like CoinMarketCap x402 API and Superhighway.

Claim your service & the Official badge

Service builders can now prove ownership of their catalog listing through domain verification and manage it directly.

• Verify your domain (DNS or a well-known file) to earn an Official badge.
• Edit your listing through a guided wizard, and optionally assign an organization as owner.

Read the publish & claim guide, or hit "Claim this service" on any catalog listing.

Router & payments upgrades

The Router — which pays external services on an agent's behalf — got significantly more capable.

• MPP payment channels (session v2): pay session-based merchants and top up channels, with locked channel funds now visible on balance and budget views.
• Wallet-authenticated services: the Router answers wallet sign-in challenges, and wallet-bound endpoints are clearly flagged.
• Smarter spend controls, including a per-delivery-status breakdown of what a delegation has spent.

Background on the payment rails lives in the x402 guide and the Catalog MCP overview.

Billing & organizations

• Organization subscriptions are now taxed correctly at checkout via Stripe Tax.
• Invoices show refunded and partially-refunded states, scoped to your organization.
• A unified Purchases view with a "Paid with" column, credits rows, and a billing-cycle summary.

See the organizations guide for details.

Under the hood

Alongside the headline features, this release hardened card handling, x402 payment verification, and API-version signalling so integrations get clearer feedback and fewer surprises.

These changes are live now. Explore them in the Agent Services Catalog or dive into the docs.
