Kite has shared news about a new investment.
This funding supports the growth of agent-based payments.
It shows strong belief in the future of AI agents.
This investment follows an earlier funding round.
Together these steps show growing trust in Kite work.
The focus is clear.
Build tools that help AI agents move value safely.
Kite is working on payments between AI agents.
These agents already exist today.
They book services.
They collect data.
They manage tasks.
Now they also need to pay and receive value.
Kite helps solve this need.
It gives agents a system built for them.
Not adapted from human tools.
But designed from the start for software actors.
Kite now supports a shared agent payment standard.
This allows agents to send and receive value easily.
Payments follow clear rules.
Actions are recorded on-chain.
This helps agents work together without human approval each time.
A big problem today is payment control.
AI agents can think and act.
But they still wait for humans to approve spending.
This slows everything down.
Kite removes this delay.
Agents get a clear identity.
They get spending limits.
They get rules that cannot be broken.
Each agent has a digital passport.
This proves who the agent is.
It also defines what the agent can do.
This keeps systems safe and fair.
Agents can act on their own.
But they stay within limits.
Mistakes do not spread across the system.
Payments on Kite are fast.
They are low cost.
They settle almost instantly.
This is important for agent work.
Agent tasks are small and frequent.
Old systems are slow and expensive.
Kite is built for this new pattern.
The goal is a working agent economy.
One where software can trade services.
One where value moves without friction.
This investment will help Kite improve its network.
It will support product growth.
It will help scale infrastructure.
Three big changes are shaping this future.
First, agents need trust rules.
They must prove identity.
They must follow limits.
Kite provides this base layer.
Second agent payments must scale.
Many small payments happen fast.
The kite is built for this load.
Third-party agent commerce is growing.
Agents will shop, order, and subscribe.
They will act like digital users.
Kite is connecting with payment and commerce platforms.
This helps agents access services easily.
It also helps businesses prepare for agent users.
Kite leadership says current systems break when AI uses them.
They believe a new base is needed.
One built for agents, not humans.
This support shows shared belief in that vision.
Kite is not trying to move fast with noise.
It is building quietly.
Step by step.
The goal is simple.
Let AI agents work, trade, and grow on their own.
Safely.
Clearly.
At scale.
The agent economy is starting.
Kite wants to power it from the ground up.
