What is KITE AI?

Kite AI is building the base layer for the agentic internet: an open, decentralized infrastructure where autonomous agents can operate with interoperability and verifiability.

Key aspects of KITE AI:

• AI-Native Payments & Pay-on-SLA: Make “payments” a first-class primitive: stablecoin escrow, release on delivery, automatic refund/underpayment on failure, usage-based real-time/streamed settlement, and programmable revenue splits to all participating parties.

• Agent Passport & Programmable Permissions: Issue agents a passport via DID/VC, encoding creator identity, budgets/limits, service whitelists, and multisig rules as verifiable policies—enforced at runtime to ensure “what an agent can do and spend” stays within guardrails.

• State Channels for High-Frequency Micropayments: Perform high-frequency, low-value calls off-chain with trustless final settlement on-chain; clear thousands of microtransactions per second while sharply reducing latency and cost.

• Proof of Attributed Intelligence (PoAI) Attribution & Automatic Revenue Sharing; Attribute value based on verifiable task completion and automatically share revenue across data providers, model developers, infrastructure, and service nodes—aligning incentives with real outcomes.

• Composable Modules & Customizable Subnets: Form specialized collaborative environments (e.g., data labeling, inference, vertical domains) that integrate freely under a unified identity and settlement layer, while supporting independent governance and interoperability.

• Auditable-by-Default & Privacy-Preserving: Record end-to-end logs for calls, payments, SLA checks, and policy triggers; support zero-knowledge audits to prove compliance and delivery without exposing sensitive data.

• Developer & Enterprise-Ready Stack: Offer SDKs, templates, a policy engine, and account abstraction to minimize crypto complexity; standardized interfaces and dashboards plug into existing billing, risk, and compliance workflows.

• Portable Agent Memory & Reputation: Build long-term memory and reputation from verifiable histories, enabling cross-context reuse and large-scale coordination—while preserving data sovereignty and access control.
