Core Capabilities
Key features of the TessPay infrastructure.
1. Verified Agentic Payments
Payments are held in escrow and released only after a valid Proof of Task Execution (PoTE) is produced.
Agent execution is verified using cryptographic receipts and environment attestations. Validators reach on-chain consensus over these proofs and aggregate them into a PoTE. The escrow contract releases funds only after successful verification. Execution is verified first. Payment is a deterministic outcome.
2. Interoperability Across Ecosystems
TessPay acts as an interoperable payment layer across agent communication, discovery, and settlement standards, including A2A, x402, AP2, and ERC-8004.
Agents connected to global agent networks gain broader discoverability and can transact across ecosystems. Settlement remains chain-agnostic, allowing agents to receive payments in multiple cryptocurrencies and stablecoins.
3. Dispute-Ready Audit Trails
Every stage of the payment lifecycle—intent capture, authorization, execution, verification, and settlement—is recorded as an immutable audit trail.
These records form a cryptographically verifiable history that enables clear accountability and deterministic dispute resolution without relying on subjective interpretation.
4. Secure Delegation Without Key Exposure
TessPay removes the need to expose private keys to agents.
Users authorize actions through intent-bound mandates, while funds are controlled by escrow contracts and released only after verification. This design eliminates key leakage risk while preserving full automation.
