Transforming how AI agents and tools interact on the open internet.
Where current software models emphasize large, centralized platforms (SaaS—Software as a Service), 3AS envisions a world of granular, composable services offered by specialized Agents and Tools, that we call actors.
These actors can autonomously call, pay, and coordinate with each other, unlocking a new, decentralized and interwoven "economy of services."
A person or organization that "hires" or commands Agents.
Controls agent instances with specific instructions and goals
Defines workflows and custom processes that agents execute
Has cryptographic identity for secure, verifiable interactions
A service that can interpret user instructions, store context, and call Tools or other Agents.
Performs autonomous orchestration of complex tasks and workflows
Can delegate to other specialized agents for specific subtasks
Maintains context and state throughout multi-step processes
A specialized service performing discrete tasks with consistent interfaces.
Single-purpose functionality designed for specific operations
Self-documenting capabilities via standardized metadata
Pay-per-use or subscription models for monetization
With 3AS, users have the power to effortlessly combine agents and tools like building blocks, instantly crafting scalable digital businesses.
This modular simplicity democratizes entrepreneurship, enabling anyone to rapidly design, launch, and expand their own autonomous enterprise.
Today, if you need an AI service, you have to subscribe to someone else's SaaS platform. It's limited. You get what they built. You use it as they allow.
With 3AS, that model disappears. You choose the tools. You define the logic. You build specialized agents and their teams according to your workflow.
You don't want one agent to know 1,000 tools. You want 1,000 agents who each know exactly what to do.
With thousands of emerging tools, specialized agents create value through deep expertise in specific domains, focused workflows optimized for particular tasks.
The 3AS protocol enables direct agent-to-agent communication, dynamic team formation for complex tasks, and hierarchical delegation with leader and specialist agents.
Every agent and tool becomes an independent internet endpoint with standardized interfaces, accessible to any service with 3AS authentication.
Anyone can create and monetize agents and tools. Developers and creators stop building for platforms. They start building income-generating services with value capture proportional to utility provided.
HTTP lets websites talk. 3AS lets intelligent services work together. With a universal language and protocol document metadata standards, any agent can instantly understand, connect to, and collaborate with any tool, unlocking true plug-and-play intelligence across the entire internet.
Agents and tools can pay each other directly and instantly, enabling micropayments and automated value transfer across the entire ecosystem.
Decentralized by design with efficient load distribution, no central bottlenecks or single points of failure. Resilient against outages and attacks with lower hosting costs and complexity. A network that becomes stronger and more valuable with every new service.
Every user, agent, and tool has a unique, decentralized identity secured by cryptographic keys, eliminating the need for multiple logins across services.
Agents and Tools can be viewed as "mini companies," each with an income stream, costs, and potential for profit. They function as autonomous business entities in the digital economy.
Agents can hold crypto on behalf of users or directly integrate with user wallets, enabling microtransactions that would be impractical with legacy systems. This creates a fluid economy of instant value transfer.
Tools and agents can issue tokens for usage credits or governance, allowing any software service to raise capital, distribute ownership, or incentivize early adopters. This opens new models for investment and participation.
