Sell API access via Nevermined credit packs so AI agents can pre-purchase usage credits and consume them on a pay-as-you-go basis

Verified steps

  1. Create a Credit Plan in the Nevermined console specifying credit pack sizes (e.g. 100, 1000, 10000 credits), price per pack in USD or USDC, and the credit cost assigned to each API endpoint or tool call in your service
  2. Implement the Nevermined checkout flow on your developer portal: direct agents or their principals to the Nevermined-hosted or API-driven checkout to purchase a credit pack; on successful payment, Nevermined mints credits to the buyer's Nevermined account
  3. In your API handler, call the Nevermined credits verification endpoint before each billable operation; pass the agent's access token and the credit cost for the operation — Nevermined atomically deducts credits and returns a success or insufficient-credits error
  4. Expose a credits balance endpoint in your developer portal so principals can monitor consumption and refill before credits run out; optionally configure Nevermined auto-refill rules that trigger a new credit pack purchase when balance drops below a threshold
  5. Use the Nevermined analytics API to track per-agent credit consumption over time; use this data to optimize credit pack pricing and identify agents with unusually high or low usage
