Make a video about our x402 Feature

Pitch an x402 Use Case with Swap.io

About Swap.io

Swap.io is a swap platform on Solana. Its Agent API lets AI agents get swap quotes and build swap transactions, paying per call in USDC through x402. There’s no API key and no subscription, and each call costs a fraction of a cent.

The Task

Make a 60 to 120 second video pitching one specific way an AI agent could use x402 with Swap.io.

Show us the idea, how it works and why it matters. You don’t need to write code: mockups, slides, storyboards, diagrams or screen recordings are all welcome.

Your video should:

1. Pitch one concrete scenario. “AI agents can trade through x402” is too broad. “A Telegram bot that charges users per swap and pays Swap.io per quote” is the level we want.

2. Explain the x402 flow simply: the agent makes a request, gets a 402 (payment required), pays in USDC, and gets the answer.

3. Say why x402 beats the alternatives (API keys, subscriptions) for your use case.

Need inspiration? A trading agent that pays per quote before every trade, a rebalancer that only pays when it actually trades, a research agent that buys data per request, a Telegram bot that rebalances your portfolio.

Bonus: Make It Work (up to +20)

Show your idea actually running: a real paid call to the Swap.io Agent API, with the transaction link on Solscan. Partial credit for a demo that runs part of the flow.

No idea where to start? The x402 setup guides walk you through your first paid call.
