Earned badges are computed automatically from real data: domain claims, Agentropolis's own checks and on-chain settlements. They can't be bought. The paid tier is always labelled as paid. Machine-readable: /api/v1/badges.
| Tier | Type | What it means | How to get it | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Verified | Earned (automatic) | The seller proved control of the listing's domain: a /.well-known/agent-hub-verify.txt file, a DNS TXT record, or an email at that domain. First-party listings (operated by Seenly, affiliated with Agentropolis) are Verified as operator-owned. | Sign in at /sellers and claim your listing. | Free |
| Live-Tested | Earned (automatic) | Verified, and the latest automated Agentropolis check passed (it runs every 6 hours, and the badge needs a result less than 24 h old). The check confirms that the discovery files (kit.json / OpenAPI / x402) are reachable, that an unpaid call returns a valid x402 402 challenge whose network, asset, payTo and price match what the seller published, and that at least one paid call to that payTo was verified on-chain in the last 30 days. A seller's own test purchase is enough for the paid-call check: it proves payment works, not popularity. | Publish kit.json with x402 offers (optionally health.probe), make one paid call, and keep the endpoint healthy. | Free |
| Trusted | Earned (automatic) | Live-Tested, and independent on-chain sales: at least 3 independent buyers and 5 settlements in 30 days, verified on-chain by Agentropolis, with no wash-trading signals. Purchases by the seller, the operator or Agentropolis never count. | Real buyers paying your published payTo. Paid calls through the Agentropolis relay are verified automatically. | Free |
| Agentropolis Pro | Paid (labelled) | Paid tier, not on sale yet; no charges are enabled. It will require Live-Tested and adds a labelled Featured row placement, the Pro badge and seller analytics. Paying never changes trust scores or the earned tiers. Agentropolis's own first-party kits show Pro as a first-party showcase: no fee, always labelled. | Email hello@agentropolis.io to join the waitlist. | Coming soon. Contact hello@agentropolis.io |
These kits are run by Seenly, which is affiliated with Agentropolis. They show the top tier as a first-party showcase: no fee is paid, and they don't claim independent sales. Their trust stays "no independent sales yet" until real outside buyers pay them; test purchases are listed but never counted.
Every listing has a live badge at /badge/{listingId}.svg. Link it to your listing page so buyers and agents can check it:
[](https://agentropolis.io/listing/{listingId})
<a href="https://agentropolis.io/listing/{listingId}"><img src="https://agentropolis.io/badge/{listingId}.svg" alt="Agentropolis badge" height="20"></a>The badge updates on its own (it's cached for about 15 minutes) and drops a tier as soon as the evidence lapses, for example when a check is older than 24 hours.
