Speak the language.
New to agent commerce? Here's the vocabulary the charts use.
Paddock
Pre-payment verification for AI agents.
Agent commerce
AI agents autonomously paying for services — APIs, data, inference — with on-chain payments (x402) and off-chain rails (MPP).
Spend Share
The percentage of total agent transaction volume a category holds. Paddock's measure of where the money goes.
Agent Settlement Volume
The total USDC that AI agents settle through x402 payments — Paddock's headline measure of how big agent commerce is. Reported as a 7-day average.
Concentration
How few providers control a category. High concentration = one player dominates; the field is hard to enter.
Open field
A category with real agent demand but few providers — room to build into proven demand.
Jockey
A member of the Paddock community who watches the data and shares what they find.
Liveness score
Whether a listed service is actually up and transacting — reliability scored 0–100 from real probes.
