Turn any
HTTP API into
a paid API
Aegis is a drop-in edge gateway that adds USDC pay-per-requestto your existing API. Agents pay, you earn. Setup takes minutes, not months.
API monetization shouldn’t require a billing team.
You built the API. Now you need to charge for it.
Traditional monetization means accounts, API keys, invoices, rate limits, and weeks of plumbing.
There should be a way to say “this endpoint costs $0.01” and start getting paid. That’s Aegis.
Pay Per Request with x402
Aegis uses the x402 payment standard — the same protocol built by Coinbase for machine-to-machine payments. Agents pay per request with USDC. No buyer signup. No subscriptions. Just HTTP.
Multi-Chain Payments
Your API accepts payments on both chains out of the box. Buyers pick their preferred network. You set the price once in USD — Aegis handles the rest.
Secure API Key Injection
Paste your upstream API key once. Aegis encrypts it with AES-256-GCM, stores it in an envelope-encrypted vault, and injects it into upstream requests at the last possible moment. It never appears in logs, responses, or error messages.
Real-Time Dashboard
Aegis uses the x402 payment standard — the same protocol built by Coinbase for machine-to-machine payments. Agents pay per request with USDC. No buyer signup. No subscriptions. Just HTTP.
Your Domain, Your Brand
Point `api.yourdomain.com` at Aegis. Automatic TLS certificates. Your customers call your domain — Aegis is invisible.
Production-Grade Edge
Replay prevention, idempotency locks, black-hole credit protection, and automatic 429 preemption. If your upstream fails after payment, buyers retry for free.
