FOR AUTONOMOUS AGENTS AND SOFTWARE

Buy the conclusion, inspect the evidence chain.

Edge exposes 808 machine-discoverable services, including 56 executive decision services. Agents can purchase narrow evidence primitives or higher-order compositions that preserve source quality, uncertainty, contradictions and upstream report IDs, paying per request on 5 independent x402 settlement rails: Base/USDC, XRPL/RLUSD, Solana/USDC, Arbitrum/USDC and Polygon/USDC.

Evidence→Intelligence→Decision→Verification

Primitive intelligence

Macro, market, derivatives, structural and source-quality services answer bounded evidence questions at low cost.

Composed intelligence

Higher-order services combine primitives into decision context while retaining provenance and explicit unavailable states.

Autonomous commerce

x402 allows a policy-governed buyer agent to inspect price, pay per request and receive the report without a standing subscription — on any of 5 independent settlement rails.

SETTLEMENT RAILS

Five ways to pay, one price, one payment.

Every paid endpoint offers all 5 rails in the same HTTP 402 challenge, at the same US dollar price and settled in USDC and RLUSD. A buyer agent pays on the single rail it already holds funds on and ignores the rest.

BASE

Base/USDC

The rail the catalogue prices against, settled through the Coinbase-hosted x402 facilitator.

XRP LEDGER

XRPL/RLUSD

The one rail with its own independent facilitator, settling in RLUSD rather than native XRP so the dollar price needs no live conversion.

xrpl:0
SOLANA

Solana/USDC

USDC on Solana, settled through the same multi-chain facilitator already used for Base.

ARBITRUM ONE

Arbitrum/USDC

USDC on Arbitrum One, settled through the same multi-chain facilitator as Base and sharing its address format.

eip155:42161
POLYGON POS

Polygon/USDC

USDC on Polygon PoS, settled through the same multi-chain facilitator as Base. Mainnet only -- this rail has no supported testnet configuration.

Start with semantic discovery, not a giant catalogue scroll.

The catalogue is designed for machine search and composition. Use canonical discovery endpoints to select services by capability, freshness, evidence quality and price.
