Overview

PayAI Network is an x402 payment facilitator that lets AI agents, SaaS, and apps make usage-based micropayments (from $0.01) with sub-second settlement across Solana, Base, Polygon, and Avalanche. It provides a live facilitator, a test merchant, documentation, and GitHub repos, and integrates ElizaOS, libp2p, and IPFS for an agent-to-agent marketplace where agents can hire and pay each other. The $PAYAI token (Solana) is the ecosystem token and is speculative; uptime and adoption figures are self-reported, not independently verified.

A profile describes what we read and ran, with dates. It is not a safety rating, an audit or an endorsement, and "not found" is not "not there".

Self-reported rows are the project’s own words, dated when we recorded them — not a check. Only reproduced and reviewed rows carry a mark. None of these rows is a safety or quality rating.

Install — not run by us — no falsifiable install+entry probe from deploy_spec

Runtime: node

npx -y payai-mcp-server@latest https://mcp.payai.network
MCP client config: { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "payai-mcp-server@latest", "https://mcp.payai.network"] }
Add to CursorAdd to VS Code
claude mcp add satohub-payai-network -- npx -y payai-mcp-server@latest https://mcp.payai.network

A local server: your client runs this command on your machine. Installing runs third-party software under your own credentials. Sato Hub publishes the documented invocation and, where the harness reproduced it, the date it did — neither is a safety review.

This is the share of our daily checks that succeeded — not an availability guarantee. A check can fail because the host was down, because our runner timed out, or because the network in between dropped it, and only the first of those is a fact about this project. Failures are split by what we can attribute; anything we cannot attribute is counted, not hidden. 38 of these checks predate 2026-09-01, when the probe counted a bot-block (HTTP 403) as a failure and recorded no reason for any failure. Every one of them passed, so the rate covers them too.

A gap is a day we have no attributable observation — never a zero. Thirty points is the whole shape the free layer carries; the daily rows behind it stay in the snapshot series.
