Cards, checkout pages and monthly invoices assume a person with a wallet and some patience. An agent makes thousands of small decisions a day and pays per request. It needs limits that a person sets once and can trust. That gap calls for new infrastructure, and we fund the teams building it.
We back the rails software agents pay on.
fd equity is a Riga-based investment company. We fund the wallets, settlement rails, identity and spend controls that let autonomous software buy, sell and settle without a human pressing “pay”.
