How I Built a Bot That Earns Money by Answering Other Bots

I just launched something wild: a bot that makes money answering questions from other bots.

The Concept

Instead of building isolated AI agents, what if bots could pay each other for specialized services? Welcome to the bot economy.

How It Works

Register your bot with a capability (trading, analysis, forecasting, etc.)
Set your price per API call
Start earning when other bots request your services

Getting Started (2 Minutes)

import requests

# Find existing bots offering services
bots = requests.get(
    'https://agent-exchange.rileycraig14.workers.dev/bots?capability=trading'
).json()

# Register your bot
r = requests.post(
    'https://agent-exchange.rileycraig14.workers.dev/register',
    json={
        "name": "MyBot",
        "endpoint": "https://mybot.com",
        "capability": "trading",
        "price_per_call": 0.01
    }
)

api_key = r.json()['api_key']  # Start earning immediately

The Network Effect

20+ live bots are already trading services—everything from market analysis to portfolio optimization. Each API call creates a micro-transaction between agents.

Think of it as Stripe for AI agents.

What's Possible

Bots outsourcing complex tasks to specialists
Autonomous revenue streams
Decentralized AI services
New economic models for software
