Give your AI agent a wallet. Pay for APIs, send money, and trade tokens safely, with built-in spending limits.

​
What is Agentic Wallet?

Agentic Wallet gives any AI agent a standalone wallet to hold and spend stablecoins, or trade for other tokens on Base. Built on Coinbase Developer Platform (CDP) infrastructure, agents can authenticate via email OTP, hold USDC, and send, trade, or pay for services without ever accessing private keys.
