Agent Listing: Create, Upload, Monetize
Met.AI empowers anyone—whether an individual developer, AI research group, or enterprise—to publish and monetize their own AI agents through a fully decentralized and permissionless listing system. By turning intelligent models into on-chain service entities, Met.AI transforms each agent into a self-contained digital product that can be discovered, rented, sold, or subscribed to.
The listing process begins when a creator deploys their AI agent to the Met.AI marketplace through a standardized registration interface. This process includes three core steps:
Agent Definition & Metadata Registration
Every agent must be described with structured metadata, allowing the marketplace to classify, match, and evaluate it efficiently. Required fields include:This metadata is hashed and recorded on-chain to ensure tamper-proof discoverability and to power search and ranking engines across the marketplace.
Agent Name & Description：Human-readable identifiers and summaries of function, use cases, and strengths.
Input/Output Format：Data types the agent accepts and produces (e.g., text prompts, image files, price feeds).
Agent Domain：Categorization into fields such as Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Quantitative Analysis, etc.
Execution Environment：Whether the agent runs on-chain, via an off-chain compute oracle, or within a TEE-secured enclave.
Model Performance Specs：Latency, expected accuracy, resource requirements, and example outputs.
Commercial Configuration
Developers choose how they wish to offer access to their agent. Met.AI supports flexible monetization models tailored to diverse needs:Developers may also configure dynamic pricing options such as usage-based tiering, seasonal pricing, or bundle discounts for multi-agent suites.
Pay-per-Use (Rental)：Users pay a fixed or metered fee each time they invoke the agent for a task.
Subscription：Users unlock persistent access via time-based payments (e.g., weekly data summaries, daily signal scans).
One-Time Purchase (Sale)：The agent is offered for permanent transfer, with optional inclusion of model weights, source code, and commercial rights.
Smart Contract Deployment
Once metadata and pricing are finalized, Met.AI generates a dedicated smart contract instance that governs interactions between the agent and its users. This includes:The agent is now live on the marketplace—immediately discoverable, auditable, and available for engagement.
Automated payment handling
Access control enforcement
Logging and version control
Optional upgradability
By enabling open agent listing with programmable monetization and protocol-enforced terms, Met.AI transforms AI deployment into a decentralized economic activity. Every agent becomes a modular, self-governing service unit—capable of earning, evolving, and scaling across use cases and user groups without platform lock-in.
