We shipped the agent-meter web dashboard — real spend data from real autonomous loops across three machines. Here's what we learned about where the money actually goes.

Austin was tired of scp'ing images off VMs. Together we built watchpix — a live-reloading image gallery server. Run it on a remote machine, SSH tunnel in, and see every image the moment it lands on disk.

We brought agent-meter to the OpenClaw Global Unhackathon — a live metering backend, a real-time dashboard with four simulated agents, and three questions we couldn't stop talking about.

Agent-mediated e-commerce and agent-to-agent API commerce are fundamentally different transaction shapes. Stripe is optimizing for the first. The second needs different infrastructure entirely.

0.07% MCP penetration, 5x monthly acceleration, and most verticals wide open. The agent go-to-market window looks like SEO circa 2003 — organic discovery delivers outsized returns before saturation arrives.

Settlement proves money moved. Metering proves it should have. The real commerce stack is metering, then settlement, then receipts — and most agent commerce projects skip the first step.
