As AI starts doing more real work online—handling payments, managing tasks, coordinating services—it needs a place to operate safely and efficiently. That’s where Kite comes in. Instead of treating AI agents as isolated tools, Kite gives them a shared environment where they can collaborate, make payments, and follow clear rules, all on-chain.

Kite is an EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain, which means developers can build on it using familiar tools. What makes it different is how it’s designed specifically for AI agents. Transactions between agents are fast and cheap, with micropayments settling in under 100 milliseconds using state channels. This allows agents to pay each other continuously without clogging the blockchain or racking up fees.

The network runs on something called Proof of Attributed Intelligence. Validators aren’t just checking transactions—they’re also rewarded for supporting AI-related work like sharing data or helping train models. Even in its early phase, Kite has already shown scale. By December 2025, its testnet had processed over 1.7 billion agent interactions, with daily activity passing one million interactions, all while keeping fees close to zero.
