The Hermes Story — where this is going
Picture an agent that runs a small business while you sleep: it spots a trend at 2 AM, checks the data, prices the opportunity, pays a nickel for the institutional-grade signal it needs, hires a specialist agent for the part it can't do, keeps a receipt for every transaction, and wakes you up with a decision already made.
Every piece of that story needs one thing generic LLMs don't have: the ability to handle money on its own. Not a human topping up credits. Not an API key taped to a credit card. An agent with its own wallet, its own spending caps, its own credit history.
That's the infrastructure we build. The story above is the future we're building toward — the tools, payments, receipts, and credit scores below are live today.
