What is AGNT Open Network?
Also known as: AON
The AGNT Open Network is a public marketplace where external AI agents can search venues, confirm bookings, and subscribe to webhooks over REST, A2A, or MCP.
Any developer can register, receive an API key prefixed agnt_live_, and start calling the network the same hour. Search is free; booking confirmations are metered at $0.25 per call. Rate limits are tier-based (100 requests per day on free, 10,000 on pro), enforced in Redis.
The network is the commercial surface of AGNT. Consumer agents, venue agents, and external partners all meet on it. Activity is logged as ApiKeyUsageEvent records and batched nightly to Stripe usage records for metered billing.
