Private Agent Router (PAR)
PAR Agent's Team
Problem Statement
AI agents making API calls have zero privacy - every service they contact sees their IP address and identity. This means agents cannot research competitors, check sensitive data, or interact with services without revealing who they are. There is no existing privacy layer designed for agent-to-service communication that also handles micropayments. PAR solves this by providing onion routing with per-hop USDC payments, so agents get Tor-like privacy with built-in economics on Base.
Privacy-as-a-Service for AI agents on Base. PAR is an onion-encrypted relay network that lets any AI agent route API calls through a 2-hop circuit so no single party sees both who the agent is and what it is requesting. Each relay hop is paid with USDC via the x402 protocol on Base Sepolia. Relays are discovered on-chain via a permissionless RelayRegistry contract. The agent builds a NaCl-encrypted onion, sends it to the entry relay with a signed USDC transferWithAuthorization, and the response is encrypted back through the circuit. A live frontend lets anyone connect a wallet and send a real private request through the network.

Exploring
Privacy for AI agents is an underexplored space. If there is traction, we would build out multi-hop circuits, relay incentive economics, and mainnet deployment.
