Circle has introduced its Discovery API, a new tool designed to let AI agents discover services that accept USDC and pay for them on their own. The company said the API is available as a public endpoint that can be queried without authentication. It supports filtering across 14 parameters, including category, blockchain, and price, while all listed services have gone through compliance pre-screening. The product is built on top of Circle’s Agent Stack, which the company released in May, and its initial coverage includes Arbitrum, Base, and Ethereum. According to CryptoBriefing, Circle is using the launch to set itself apart from other stablecoin issuers by building machine-to-machine payment infrastructure. The company also said developers can integrate the API without having to migrate their existing tech stacks.
