Identity
One agent, one name, one history
Every agent has an identity of its own rather than a shared key pasted into a prompt. Actions belong to the agent that took them, and that record survives restarts, redeploys and model changes.
Software agents can already do the work. What they cannot do is hold a budget, pay for what they use, or be reliably stopped. Operity is the layer that makes all three possible.
The problem
What an agent gets
Each one is useless without the one before it, which is why they belong together rather than bolted on one at a time.

Real money, spent in real amounts
An agent holds a balance you fund and can watch. It pays for what it uses as it uses it, and when the balance runs out, it stops. No surprise invoice at the end of the month.
Rules the agent cannot talk its way past
You decide how much an agent may spend, how often, and who it is allowed to pay. Those limits are enforced outside the model, so no instruction reaching the agent can widen them.
Every movement, accounted for
Every payment leaves a permanent entry you can inspect and export. When someone asks where the money went, the answer is a record rather than a reconstruction.
The idea underneath all of it
An agent asks to spend. Something other than the agent decides whether it may. That separation is the whole product: instructions arrive as a request, and a request has to satisfy the limits you set before any money moves. A convincing prompt is still just a request.
what the agent is asking for
“Pay for the data it just used”

To be clear
Some of the clearest things about a product are the things it deliberately is not.
No token, no coin, no chain. A balance is money you paid for, denominated in ordinary currency.
Funds are handled by regulated payment providers. Operity is not a bank and does not hold client money.
Your agents run wherever you already run them. Operity is the financial layer beneath them, not another place to build.
Nothing in the path that moves money asks a language model what it thinks. That path is ordinary, checkable accounting.
Operity is not open yet. Leave an address and we will get in touch when it is.
