Show HN: MonkePay – Charge AI Agents per API Request in USDC
I built MonkePay. It is a thin wrapper on top of the x402 protocol and Coinbase CDP. It lets you gate any Express/Hono/Fastify/Next.js endpoint behind per-request USDC payments.<p>The problem: x402 is solid but using it raw means provisioning wallets, verifying on-chain receipts, building payout logic, tracking payments, 2-3 weeks of plumbing before you've monetized anything.<p>MonkePay abstracts all of that. Three lines of middleware, wallet provisioned automatically, USDC verified on-chain before your handler runs, daily payouts to your personal wallet.<p>Looking for developers to try it and share feedback, especially if you're building agent-facing APIs or working with x402. Happy to help with integration directly. Drop a comment or reach me at hello@monkepay.xyz<p>SDK: npm install @monkepay/sdk Docs: docs.monkepay.xyz Source (SDK): github.com/AliBaig-xD/monkepay-sdk
