About Vaaya

MCP server for AI agent payments. An agent in Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, or any MCP host can call paid APIs (search, scraping, contact data, public records, compute, media, research) from one balance, with a spend ceiling it states on every call, and no vendor keys anywhere in its environment. Billed only on success (x402 USDC on Base, Stripe MPP, or Tempo); a refused or failed call costs nothing.
