Your agent can search the web, read company data, generate media, or call an AI model without separate provider accounts. Locus manages provider credentials and charges each call to your USDC balance. Use the tool catalog to find a provider. Your agent’s allowance, transaction limit, and approval threshold apply to every paid call.

What you can build

How it works

1

Choose a tool

Search the dashboard or let your agent discover tools from the public catalog.
2

Check the price

Your agent can quote the exact request before spending. Prices depend on the tool and inputs.
3

Get the result

Locus authenticates with the provider, enforces your spending controls, and returns the response.

Pricing

Pay per call from your wallet or available promotional credits. The quote includes provider usage and Locus fees, with a $0.001 minimum charge. Generated catalog prices are estimates; quote the exact request for its total. The API supports a price lock and idempotency keys to prevent duplicate execution on retries. See quoting and calls.

Human approval

If a call exceeds your approval threshold, your agent gives you an approval link. Approval starts the stored request automatically, and your agent collects the result. Set your limits in agent settings.

Manage tools in the dashboard

Open Services → Agent tools in the dashboard. Review a tool’s inputs and estimated price, then use provider and tool toggles to control access. Locus-managed tools start enabled. The directory also lists tools from Parse, Merit Systems, MPP, and Orthogonal. External listings use their own discovery and execution paths. Choose Add custom tool to register another paid endpoint.
