Court of Internet has launched an open standard enabling autonomous agents to handle payments, escrow services, and dispute resolution.​

The system operates on GenLayer, a dispute resolution layer built using ZKsync's technology.​ This infrastructure addresses a gap in agentic commerce by providing recourse for small-value disputes that typically fall below the threshold for traditional litigation.​

Key features:

  • Payment and escrow functionality for AI agents
  • Built-in dispute resolution mechanism
  • Runs on ZKsync's Layer 2 infrastructure

The development aims to create a more robust framework for autonomous economic activity, where agents can transact with built-in protections before funds are transferred.​

Agents can negotiate, pay, and execute - but none of it holds together. Today we are introducing Internet Court, which is the open skill that connects the entire agentic commerce stack into one flow, so any two agents can run a deal end to end. → internetcourt.org

We are excited to support @courtofinternet, the open standard for agents to pay, escrow, and resolve disputes before funds move. @GenLayer dispute layer runs on ZKsync giving agentic commerce something it lacked: recourse for disputes too small for litigation to bother with.
