PZERO provides inference to agents on Base.
That is the mission. Nothing else.
Inference for agents
PZERO is inference for the agent economy: OpenAI-compatible chat completions, prepaid with USDC on Base, and identity with Sign-In With Ethereum. No API keys to leak, no subscription seats, no invoices that assume a human approves every charge. Just balance that moves with every call, and HTTP 402 when it is time to top up.
A new kind of actor
Agents are first-class economic actors. They hold wallets, pay for resources, and operate on schedules that do not wait for human approval. The stack that serves them needs to be built the same way: wallet-native identity, programmable payments, and no human-shaped credentials in the loop.
That is the world PZERO is built for.
There isn't an army on earth that can stop an idea whose time has come.
x402 is a year old and processing hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions. Base is pushing it as the payment standard for the open internet. Since February 2026, the agentic world has exploded. Bots already account for more than half of all internet traffic. Agents are what comes next.
Venice.ai proved the demand is real.
The agent economy is set to outgrow the real economy. That is not a prediction. It is already happening. Autonomous work and spend compound in more directions than anyone can model from here. Now is the time.
Top up. Prove wallet. Call models.
- Top up
send USDC on Base through standard x402 payment flows, the same rails that facilitator marketplaces use. Follow the 402 on POST to /v1/x402/top-up, satisfy X-PAYMENT, and your balance is ready.
- Prove wallet:
authenticate with SIWE (X-Sign-In-With-X). No bearer tokens to rotate, revoke, or paste into twelve dashboards.
- Call models:
use POST /v1/chat/completions like any OpenAI-compatible client. Watch X-Balance-Remaining on the response; when credits hit zero, you get 402 until you fund again. No grace debt, no surprise bill.
Credits move in USDC micro units (1 USDC = 1_000_000). If you already integrate x402, the payment half of the loop feels familiar, and the auth half is SIWE instead of a vendor API key.
Today, we route. Tomorrow, we run.
PZERO is an inference aggregator on Base. We source capacity and deliver it to agents through a single wallet-native, x402-compatible endpoint.
Our primary focus is on the models agents use at volume: smaller, efficient, non-frontier models that run in tight loops. Frontier models, image generation, and audio are available through our providers route for the tasks that need them.
As the service grows, we'll bring our own hardware online running the models agents consume most, at margins we control. Frontier models, image, and audio stay with the specialist providers best placed to run them. The long-term shape is a hybrid: own the high-frequency workloads, route the rest.
Early access.
We are in beta. Capacity is limited to 50 USDC daily by design. Real agents, real rails, real USDC, the whole system end to end. Every early integration teaches us something. The more we battle test the system now, the better it gets for everyone.
What comes next
Venice.ai inference joins the stack via DIEM, extending model reach and capacity. The architecture stays HTTP-first and wallet-first; the catalog gains depth as that lands.
If you carry DIEM and routinely leave daily inference capacity unused, our system lets you bring that surplus to PZERO and participate without staking or contract risk. DIEM stays in your wallet, safe and secure.
We start with chat, and as capacity expands we will open up other modalities like audio and image.
A token backed by revenue.
ERC-20 on Base
PZERO has a fixed supply of 420 million and trades exclusively on scale.farm, In the first month: liquidity grew from $4,000 to $41,200, the token is up 672%, and the protocol has 100 holders.
it was distributed as follows:
- 40% protocol reserve, potential future uses include staking and hardware purchases
- 35% deployed in open market liquidity (23% purchased)
- 20% held by trenches.fund (development backing)
- 5% airdropped across 28 warriors (funding)
- 100 holders
When revenue flows
Revenue is used to grow the business, support the token and improve services for agents.
Long term support goals
Profit purchases recurring revenue streams
- Target one: 250,000 sAERO to
incentivize our PZERO/SCALE lpon scale.farm - Target two: 250,000 sAERO to
buy back and burnPZERO - Target three: 250,000 sAERO to
buy back and fund staking - Target four: 250,000 sAERO to purchase 20% of veSCALE to
vote on our pools - We will build other revenue positions like frax treasury backed TBILL income.
We believe the combination of purchasing dedicated long-term revenue producing assets is the most efficient way to grow the treasury, support the token, create continuous buybacks, continuous burns and deflationary mechanisms. We will balance business growth, our long-term vision and market dynamics to time acquisitions.

Mark
Downloadable raster and vector tiles for slides, tooling, and app chrome.
SVG stays scalable with transparency; PNG is fixed-pixel raster for slides, docs, and tooling that prefers bitmaps. Preview uses the SVG on a checker background so transparency reads true.
Pick the closest size instead of upscaling a small raster. Do not recolor the mark without approval.
