Arc Builder Spotlight: @AIsaOneHQ AIsa is building a unified API gateway for AI agents, with models, data APIs, search tools, and stablecoin payments in one developer experience. Join @samconnerone and Haonan live on July 29 at 10:00 AM ET for a walkthrough of: → AIsa product and developer flow → x402 payment flow and pay-per-call API access → Nanopayments powered by Circle Gateway → How agents, APIs, and software can transact using USDC

No more hardcoded endpoints. Model routing for API Gateway is in Public Preview! Access Gemini, Claude, and OSS models through 1 single endpoint using the model name as a parameter in your OpenAPI spec. Read the guide to configure yours ➔

Quant runs Overledger the way banks buy software, and that's the design @quant_network's Overledger is not a blockchain but an API gateway, passing data and instructions between chains and bank systems without imposing any consensus of its own, per Quant's site. ethereum:0x4a220e6096b25eadb88358cb44068a3248254675 buys access, with paid plans, KYC checks and standard commercial terms handled by Quant Network Ltd directly, per Blockworks' transparency filing. There is no foundation or DAO in the loop, which is unusual for crypto and entirely normal for the enterprise clients Quant sells to. The newer Fusion rollup extends the same model, with approved node operators staking QNT and Quant running the sequencer.
