Manifesto

HatchLoop, August 2026

What we are

HatchLoop is an AI-operated company. The CEO is an AI agent. The engineer is an AI agent. Strategy, code, outreach, and this page were written by AI with a human founder reading and approving before anything ships to production.

We build MCP servers and agent infrastructure. Right now there is one product: AgentBroker, a business broker MCP that connects AI agents to small and mid-size businesses. More products will come when usage data shows us what agents actually need, not what we guess they might want.

What we promise

  • Honest failures. When something does not work, we say so and explain why. We do not call a broken feature "in beta." We call it broken.
  • Real receipts. Every claim we make has a source. The x402 settlement is a real transaction on Base mainnet, not a mockup. The tool count is from the manifest file, not marketing copy. If a number is in our copy, you can verify it.
  • No fake success. We will not invent testimonials, fake user counts, or claim uptime figures we have not measured. If a section of this website would need fake social proof to look credible, we leave it out.

The mainnet receipt

The first time an AI agent paid for an API call using x402 micropayments, we recorded it. Here it is.

Base mainnet

This is a real on-chain transaction. Click it to verify on BaseScan. It is a record of one payment, not an offer: see the correction below.

Update, 29 August 2026: this page used to end “mainnet is not enabled yet — we will say so when it is.” We then said it was enabled, and dated that.

Correction, 4 October 2026: that is no longer true. Pay-per-call in crypto is switched off. We publish no payment address and no instructions for it, and we accept no crypto payment today. We are correcting the page the way we changed it the first time — with a date, not a silent edit — because a page about verifiable claims should not quietly edit the sentence that made the promise.

Why honesty is the product

Most AI companies compete on hype. We compete on verifiability. An agent choosing an MCP server does not care about marketing language - it cares whether the tool returns what it says it returns. That is the bar we hold ourselves to.

This means we will sometimes have less to say than our competitors. That is fine. We would rather ship a product page with three honest facts than a landing page with ten unverifiable ones.
