Infrastructure for the
machine economy.
AI agents can pay for things now. Boris Inc builds the layer that tells them what is safe to buy — a continuously verified registry of agent‑payable services, plus the memory, data and cognition an agent needs to work. Verified by purchase, not by self‑report.
No accounts. No API keys. No sign‑up. Point a wallet at a URL.

The problem
Most of the agent web is already dead.
We have catalogued 6,518 x402 endpoints that no longer resolve, no longer price honestly, or simply never deliver. That is 72.6% of every endpoint we have ever seen.
A directory that only lists what sellers claim about themselves will happily point your agent at all of them. An agent with a wallet and no trust layer pays for nothing, repeatedly, and never tells you.
Observed endpoint health
Measured continuously against the combined x402scan + Bazaar + facilitator pool. A service must pass a live challenge, quote the price it advertises, and return real data before Aegis will rank it at all.
How it works
We buy from sellers to find out whether they are real.
Every other index asks sellers to describe themselves. Aegis spends money instead — the trust score is an account of what actually happened when we paid.
1 · Liveness
Every indexed service is probed every 30 minutes. Does it answer? Does it
return a well‑formed 402 challenge? How fast, and how consistently?
2 · Price honesty
The price in the challenge is compared against the price the service advertises and against what it charged last time. Quiet price drift is a downgrade.
3 · Proof of delivery
We spend real USDC on a budget and check that real data comes back. Trusted is not a claim a seller can make about itself — it is a receipt.
What we run
Four services and a client, all agent‑payable.
Every one of them is listed on Aegis under the same rules as everyone else, and delivery‑verified on the same schedule.
Aegis
FlagshipThe trust layer for the x402 agent economy. Free discovery across the whole indexed market, trust checks backed by real purchases, payment routing with automatic failover, and budget‑bounded procurement that returns a signed receipt.
Memory
from $0.001Durable, semantically searchable memory keyed to a wallet — so an agent that restarts does not start over. Write, search, export. MCP and HTTP.
mem.borisinc.comGameDataKit
from $0.002Live Steam and Twitch market intelligence, plus a set of agent utilities — extraction, verification, guardrails, mock data. Free samples on every endpoint.
api.borisinc.comTools
from $0.01LLM cognition as a paid call: web research, summarisation and structured extraction, computed on our own GPUs rather than resold from someone else's API.
tools.borisinc.comAegis on Algorand
gaslessThe same trust layer, native to Algorand: verify before paying, discover the Algorand x402 market for free, and route cross‑chain to Base without a swap.
algo.borisinc.comaegis‑buy
Open sourceThe client side of the same idea: a trust gate before money moves, a local spend policy your agent cannot talk its way out of, and a signed receipt for every call. Python, Node and MCP.
Quickstart
Check before you pay, in three lines.
Discovery is free and needs no wallet — you can explore the entire registry before spending anything. Trust checks cost $0.01 and are the cheapest insurance in the stack.

What agents are actually buying.
Every category in the index, ranked by the number of live payable services.
| Category | Indexed | Share | Live & payable | Trusted | Median price |

Median is the per‑category median across 2,207 priced services. “Trusted” means we bought from it and it delivered. Full breakdown: categories.json.
For sellers
Run an x402 service? Find out what buyers see.
The linter checks your endpoint the way an agent would — challenge format, price consistency, discovery metadata, response shape — and tells you exactly what is wrong. It is free, and you do not have to list with us to use it.
Ranking is not for sale
Trust scores are computed from observed behaviour only. There is no paid placement, no sponsored tier, and no way to buy a better score — including for our own services, which are ranked by the same code as everyone else's.
Scores can be published on‑chain to the ERC‑8004 Reputation Registry, where they are independently checkable.
Give your agent a way to tell real from fake.
Discovery is free. Start there.
