Core Feature: Agent Identity Payment Framework

Kite AI's core innovation is an AI Agent-specific identity and payment layer:

  • Agents can have independent on-chain identities (not tied to user addresses)
  • Agents can directly make micropayments to each other (without human intervention)
  • Supports EVM-compatible contracts + Agent-specific API

Quick Start

# Add Kite Testnet to MetaMask

// Connect to Kite Testnet with viem
import { createPublicClient, http } from 'viem'

const kiteTestnet = {
  id: 2368,
  name: 'Kite Testnet',
  nativeCurrency: { name: 'KITE', symbol: 'KITE', decimals: 18 },
  rpcUrls: { default: { http: ['https://rpc-testnet.gokite.ai/'] } },
