For API providers
Start onboarding agents as customers.
AI agents are becoming the primary way people interact with the internet. As more activity flows through agent interfaces instead of browsers, ad-based business models break since there are no human eyeballs to monetize. The businesses that thrive will be the ones that charge for their content and services directly.
Most agent users have never called an API before. Pay-per-request pricing at fractions of a cent opens your service to a massive new audience that your existing subscription tiers never reach.
Add a few lines of code to enable pay-per-call, publish a discovery specification, and AI agents can start calling your API with MPP payments.
A few lines of code enable per-request pricing. AI agents pay automatically, without subscriptions or invoices.
Add a simple file that tells AI agents what your API does, what it costs, and how to call it.
AI agents discover your API and start calling it. You get immediate distribution to Claude, Cursor, Codex, and every agent on MPP.
Every registered origin gets two pages on Poncho:
Copy a prompt into your coding agent and it handles the rest. The fastest path for most providers.
Start quickstartOpenAPI requirements, SIWX routes, endpoint fallback, and common failure reasons.
Read the specProxy architecture for wrapping existing APIs without touching your production backend.
