I kept hearing that agents are spending money, but it always felt abstract.
Like what are they actually buying?
How often? How much?
Is this even real?
So we built this: wtfareagentsbuying.com
The first live stream of AI agents spending real money.
How we made this?
We pull data from x402 and find out what happens behind each transaction. API calls, scrapes, data, compute.
Then we stream it live.
Seeing it made it click for me. This is not theoretical anymore. Agents are already economic actors.
