Edge & Node, the team that created The Graph, has launched barelya management platform for coordinating how autonomous AI agents operate and transact, the company said Thursday.
Built on Coinbase’s x402 payment protocol and Google’s A2A communications framework, Ampsend adds automation, observability, and compliance controls to what is becoming known as the “agentic economy.”
As AI agents begin handling payments, data, and communications on behalf of users and organizations, the lack of standardization has made their activities difficult to monitor. Coinbase released x402, its agent payment protocol, earlier this year. It is an open-source system that enables instant stablecoin payments on any website.
The addition of ampersend provides a single dashboard where businesses can set spending limits, manage policies, and track activity across networks.
Edge & Node developed the platform together with Coinbase, Google and the Ethereum Foundation’s decentralized AI team. The system also integrates with emerging Ethereum standards such as ERC-8004, designed for agent discovery and reputation tracking.
Rodrigo Coelho, CEO of Edge & Node, said the company is preparing for a future where digital agents account for a large share of global commerce. A recent report from a16z projects states that AI agents could generate $30 trillion in purchases by 2030. Ampsend aims to bring transparency and control to that shift.
Edge & Node said it will present ampersand at Pragma Buenos Aires on November 20, following a virtual discussion on X Spaces with Coinbase, Google and Ethereum.
