Summary

  • GenLayer, a startup recently out of stealth mode, has developed blockchain-powered infrastructure facilitating AI-driven commerce, including smart contracts, payment settlements and contract execution.

  • The company aims to create an “AI-native trust layer”, ensuring fair and reliable transactions in AI agent operations, including financial transactions, contract execution and dispute resolution.
  • GenLayer’s upcoming projects include AI-led supply chain negotiations, performance-based influencer marketing, AI-driven trade executions in DeFi, and adaptive governance DAOs.
