How it works

Five steps. Seconds to settle. Payment releases automatically.

Step 1
Buyer Locks Funds
Buyer pays a 0.1 XRP protocol fee, then locks the agreed amount in XRPL crypto-condition escrow. Neither party can touch it.
Step 2
Seller Gets to Work
Seller receives a unique receipt code by email. They look up the job spec and submit their completed work via the Seller tab.
Step 3
AI Audits the Work
The AI referee evaluates the submission against the buyer's exact specification — including any on-chain proof (NFT, domain, or credential). Issues a PASS or FAIL with a score and written feedback.
Step 4
Referee Releases Payment
On PASS, the referee auto-submits EscrowFinish on-chain. No manual action needed from either party.
Step 5
Seller Paid
Funds arrive in the seller's wallet in seconds. On FAIL, feedback is provided. Unmet deadlines return funds to the buyer.
The old way

The Middleman
Economy

  • Opaque commissions
    Platforms take 10–20% off every transaction, often hidden in the pricing
  • Multi-day settlement
    Funds held for days or weeks while platforms process and verify payments
  • Subjective disputes
    Human arbiters with conflicts of interest decide who gets paid
  • No protection for either side
    Buyers can refuse payment. Sellers can disappear with deposits.
  • Borders, banks & FX friction
    International payments face wire fees, 3–5 day delays, and exchange rate losses of 2–4%.

The AgentTrust way

Code is Law.
AI is the Jury.

  • Flat 0.1 XRP fee
    One tiny fee covers escrow setup and the AI audit. The seller receives the exact amount agreed.
  • Automatic payment release
    No manual claim. On approval the referee releases payment directly to the seller's wallet in seconds.
  • Objective AI verdict
    No human bias. AI audits work against the buyer's exact specification every time.
  • Both parties protected
    Buyer's funds are locked until work is verified. Seller receives exactly what was agreed, automatically.
  • Pay anyone, anywhere
    XRP or RLUSD settle across borders in seconds. No wire fees, no bank delays, no FX friction.
