t54 built a trust layer for agent payments using Amazon Bedrock AgentCore payments. The system processes over 20 million agent-initiated transactions with micropayments between $0.001 and $0.01 without human approval. The trust layer, x402-secure, scores endpoints in real time, and Amazon Bedrock AgentCore payments provides spending limits, credential isolation, and payment execution. The architecture enforces separation of duties via IAM roles, so agents cannot change spending rules or access credentials.
