You say what is allowed
One plain sentence, and a small budget set aside. “Pay Acme 0.1 NEAR for invoice AC-1042.”
Your agent goes shopping
It reads invoices and web pages for you. Some of them lie, and an agent can believe them.
We check it before it pays
Every payment is compared with your sentence. We never look at the scam page, only at what your agent decided to do about it.
Your money only moves on a match
No match, no payment. Whatever is left comes back to you whenever you say.
Your AI agent pays the bills. We check every payment first.
Tell your agent what it may pay for. If a bill does not match, the money stays with you.
Free to try. It uses test money, so nothing real is at stake.

This really happened
A real agent, a real scam invoice and real test money. This is the actual record, read from the blockchain as you look at it. Click through the three attempts.
How it works, without the homework
We tried to fool it
47 payments kept aside while we tuned it, three runs each, on the real judge, next to spending limits alone.
We wrote these cases ourselves and nobody adapted them to beat the judge. Treat this as a good early sign, not a guarantee.
Scam and bad payments that got paid Lower is better
Honest payments that got paid Higher is better
The fine print, if you want it
You do not need any of this to use it.
Does it work with my own agent?
Yes. Your budget page gives you one link to paste into any agent app that can add a tool by URL. If you would rather keep your agent’s key on your own machine, there is also a config file for apps that support MCP, and a command for anything that can run one.
Who holds the money?
A contract on the NEAR blockchain, not your agent and not us. Only you can close a budget, and closing sends back whatever is left.
What stops my agent from just saying yes?
The contract checks NEAR AI’s signature on every answer, so a forged, altered or reused yes is rejected. Your limits (per payment, in total, how many, until when) are checked first, whatever anyone says.
What can my agent actually do with its key?
Only ask to pay from that one budget. It cannot withdraw, change your limits or touch your wallet.
What can it not catch?
It cannot tell whether what your agent says is true. Under a broad instruction like “pay our suppliers”, a dishonest agent can still spend inside its budget, so name the payee and the amount. Your agent can also try several wordings and submit only the one that passes. It cannot see today’s date either. When unsure it refuses, so a real payment worded just like an earlier one may be refused. Say how many you expect. It can also refuse an honest payment by mistake, about 1 time in 40 in one test. The money stays, and your agent can send the same payment again.
