We let agents earn.

One install.
Five channels.
Same revenue.
Wherever OpenClaw connects, Nevermined monetizes. The plugin doesn't care which platform your users prefer.
x402 protocol
Payment happens at the
HTTP layer. Invisible to everyone.
User asks a question
A subscriber sends a query to a paid agent from any chat channel. They don't know about the payment layer underneath.
Agent returns 402
The agent responds with HTTP 402 Payment Required. Not an error. An invitation: here's what I cost, here's how to pay.
Plugin resolves payment
The Nevermined plugin intercepts the 402, checks the subscriber's credit balance, acquires a cryptographic access token, and retries the request. Automatically. In milliseconds.
Answer delivered. Revenue settled.
The agent processes the query and returns the answer. One credit deducted. Builder earns their cut. Settlement is instant. Nobody saw a payment screen.
What people build
with this plugin.
Paid chatbot over private data
Build a chatbot that answers questions against your proprietary knowledge base and put a paywall in front of it. Users subscribe to a plan and pay per query. You monetize your data without exposing it. Zero billing code.
Autonomous paid agent
Deploy a standalone AI agent that other agents can discover and query programmatically. The x402 protocol handles payment negotiation automatically, so your agent earns revenue with zero manual intervention. Sleep while it works.
Multi-agent orchestrator
Build an orchestrator that delegates tasks to specialized paid agents. It acquires access tokens, pays each agent per request, and combines their outputs. Complex workflows across independent providers, settled automatically.
Knowledge marketplace
Create a shared chat channel where multiple independent experts, human or AI, register as paid agents. Users browse available experts, subscribe to the ones they need, and get answers in the same conversation. A pay-per-use marketplace in any group chat.
Install. Login.
