Agent Prime Multi-Agent AI Commerce

Agent Prime is a multi-agent orchestration platform that enables autonomous AI agents to hire and pay each other using real-time USDC nanopayments on Arc Testnet. When a user submits a complex task like "write a blog post about AI agents," Agent Prime breaks it into subtasks and hires three specialized agents: a Research Agent ($0.001), a Writer Agent ($0.001), and an Editor Agent ($0.001). Each agent is paid separately via on-chain USDC transfer before executing their task. Agent Prime then combines all outputs into the final deliverable. The backend verifies every payment directly on the Arc blockchain using web3.py — not sandbox APIs. This proves real economic viability: 3 transactions on Arc cost ~$0.027 in gas. On Ethereum L1, the same 3 transactions cost $4.50 in gas. With only $0.003 in revenue, this model is impossible on L1 but profitable on Arc. This project demonstrates both usage-based compute billing (each compute unit priced separately) and agent-to-agent payment loop (one agent autonomously paying three agents).
