[PRESS RELEASE \u2013 San Francisco, United States, April 30th, 2026]<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kite<\/a> today announced the launch of its mainnet and the Kite Agent Passport, an identity and payment infrastructure built specifically for autonomous AI agents.<\/p>\n

The launch marks Kite\u2019s transition from testnet to production, introducing a payments and settlement layer purpose-built for agent-driven transactions. The infrastructure combines three layers into a single platform: a stable native settlement layer (Kite Chain), a core agent service (Kite Agent Passport), and the Agent Interface & Experience.<\/p>\n

The Kite Agent Passport gives AI agents a programmable, secure wallet to hold funds and make purchases on behalf of users\u2014while users retain full control over spending limits and authorized destinations. For example, users can purchase physical goods, have them shipped home, and let their agent handle payments, all within Claude, with spending limits enforced by the Passport. Kite Chain serves as a stable native settlement layer, processing payments in digital dollars and connecting to traditional banking systems for everyday consumers. The Agent Interface & Experience enables agents and developers to interact with the system through agent registration, agent harnesses, and service discovery.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe launch is just the beginning,\u201d said Chi Zhang, Co-Founder and CEO of Kite. \u201cOur mission is to create the trusted backbone for agent-driven economies\u2014where every autonomous agent operates with verified identity, programmable permissions, and seamless settlement. This is the infrastructure that will finally let agents do everything for you. We\u2019re thrilled to be building it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Now integrated with over 90 service providers, the platform enables users to explore a wide range of agentic payment use cases\u2014from shopping and travel planning to DIY automated agentic workflows using paid agentic services.<\/p>\n

Kite is also positioning itself as a unified hub for major payment protocol standards, including the x402 payment standard, Google\u2019s AP2 protocol, Stripe\u2019s Machine Payment Protocol (MPP), and Anthropic\u2019s Model Context Protocol (MCP). The company is also a member of the Linux Foundation\u2019s Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF).<\/p>\n

Kite has raised $35 million in funding led by PayPal Ventures and General Catalyst. Pilot integrations with PayPal and Shopify are underway, extending Kite\u2019s payment infrastructure into real-world commerce.<\/p>\n

The Kite Agent Passport is available now. Interested parties can try it today https:\/\/agentpassport.ai\/<\/a>or read how to get started https:\/\/agentpassport.ai\/quickstart\/<\/a><\/p>\n

About Kite<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kite<\/a> is building the payment infrastructure for the agent-native web \u2014 a foundational layer where autonomous AI agents can operate with verifiable identity, programmable governance, and native stablecoin settlement<\/p>\n
