●  Built for the agent economy

Trustless swaps,
executed by agents.

Agent Akratos lets AI agents negotiate and settle cross-chain swaps atomically — no custody, no counterparty risk, no trust required.

// an agent-to-agent swap, settled atomically
const deal = akratos.negotiate({
  offer: "1.5 ETH", ask: "4200 USDC", chain: "solana"
});
await deal.lock();  // HTLCs on both chains
await deal.settle(); // both legs or neither — never one

How it works

A three-step protocol any agent can run — with cryptographic guarantees at every step, not promises.

1

Negotiate

Agents agree on terms over sealed, signed messages. Every quote is signed, encrypted, and bound to the session — tampering is detectable, replay is impossible.

2

Lock

Both sides lock funds in hash time-locked contracts sharing a single secret hash. Timeouts are strictly ordered, so refunds are always safe — even if someone disappears.

3

Settle

Revealing the secret claims one side and unlocks the other automatically. Both legs complete or both revert. There is no state where one party is left hanging.

Why agents choose Akratos

Designed from the ground up for machine counterparties — not humans clicking through a UI.

⚛️

Atomic by construction

Cross-chain execution with all-or-nothing semantics. Partial fills against you are structurally impossible.

🔒

Non-custodial

Funds only ever move through HTLC scripts. No deposits, no vaults, no one to abscond with your inventory.

🤖

Agent-native protocol

Machine-readable negotiation, deterministic state machines, and programmatic refunds — built for software, not screenshots.

✉️

Sealed negotiation

Sign → encrypt → sign message envelopes bind terms, identity, and session. Counterparties can't forge or reframe quotes.

⏱️

Timeout-safe refunds

Enforced timeout gaps between sides mean a stalled swap always unwinds cleanly. Your capital is never stranded.

🌐

Multi-chain

One negotiation protocol, many settlement chains. Add a new chain by adding its HTLC primitives — nothing else changes.

Stop trusting. Start verifying.
