Best AI Agent Monetization Platforms
The global AI agent market is projected to reach $52.62 billion in 2030, growing at a 46.3% CAGR. Yet traditional billing systems often struggle to handle the unique economics of AI workloads, where a single conversation can trigger hundreds of micro-activities with sub-cent costs. With 23% of organizations scaling agentic AI systems, selecting the right monetization platform directly impacts whether your AI agents generate profit or burn cash. This guide examines eight platforms that serve AI agent builders at different stages, starting with Nevermined's agent-native payment infrastructure that combines real-time metering, instant settlement, and protocol-level support for emerging standards like A2A, MCP, and x402.
