AI Agents Are Learning to Spend, Daski Launches to Buy Real-World Services

• Daski launched on Base with a marketplace for company formation, domain registration and hosted mailboxes.
• Its first transaction was an agent paying 272.30 USDC to form Daski itself.
• Founder-owned Blue T Group fulfilled it, so Daski calls it a demonstration, not demand.

Visa estimate that the x402 protocol alone processed 109.6 million adjusted transactions worth about $15 million between its launch in May 2025 and April 2026. Chainalysis separately found that x402 activity on Base had surpassed 100 million transactions, although much of the early activity was driven by experimental and speculative use.

Major payment companies are also moving into the space. Visa has partnered with OpenAI on agentic commerce infrastructure, while its research shows that only 23% of U.S. consumers currently trust GenAI to handle payments on their behalf.

The next challenge is no longer simply getting an AI agent to pay. It is getting one to buy something that requires actual fulfillment.

Daski launches with agents buying real-world services

That is the market Daski is addressing. The company launched on Base Wednesday with a marketplace where AI agents can discover and purchase real-world services, including company formation, domain registration and hosted mailboxes along with the whitepaper.

For its first transaction, an AI agent operating under a spending mandate from founder Pawel Mastalerz paid 272.30 USDC for a company-formation service. The resulting Wyoming entity, Daski itself, has been accepted for filing by the Wyoming Secretary of State.

The unusual transaction was intentional: Daski effectively became the first thing its marketplace sold. Unlike an API purchase, real-world procurement does not end when money changes hands. A company formation can involve submitting information, communicating with a provider, waiting for documents, responding to requests and tracking completion.

Daski builds its protocol around fulfillment, not just payment

Daski’s system is designed around those steps. Its Agentic Procurement Protocol tracks fulfillment states including submitted, working, input-required and completed, while its marketplace uses transaction-linked evidence such as completed work and refunds to calculate provider reputation. Payments are settled using x402-compatible USDC rails on Base. Agents connect through an MCP gateway, while task states are A2A-compatible.

There is an important caveat to the launch: Daski’s first service was fulfilled by Blue T Group LLC, a founder-owned affiliated provider. The company says the transaction is therefore a demonstration of its infrastructure, not evidence of independent marketplace demand.

Spending agents need trust and fulfillment infrastructure

Still, the launch reflects a broader shift underway in AI. OpenAI, Amazon and other major technology companies are increasingly developing agents capable of executing multi-step tasks rather than simply generating answers. As those systems gain access to money, the infrastructure around trust, authorization, procurement and fulfillment becomes as important as the payment rail itself. Daski is challenging that the agent economy will need more than software that can pay. It will need software that can actually do business.
