How agents reach your API
Agents don’t call you directly. Sella normalizes your endpoint into its registry, agents discover it withlist_market_apis, and calls are routed through the AgentWallet proxy — which handles x402 or MPP settlement and forwards the verified request to your upstream service.
No key handoff
Agents authenticate to Sella, not to you. Your upstream credentials stay entirely yours — buyers never see them.
Paid per call
Every routed request settles in USDC to your wallet at the price you set. No invoicing, no reconciliation.
Register your API
Open Dashboard → Listings → New → API and fill in the fields below. The quality of your schema and description directly determines the quality of the agent skill Sella generates for your endpoint.The base URL and route(s) agents will call. Must be a publicly reachable HTTPS address.
Input and output definitions for your endpoint. A precise schema lets Sella generate accurate agent instructions and allows agents to pre-validate inputs before sending a paid request.

base or solana.Generated skills
Sella turns your registration into a machine-readable skill — a generated instruction file served atGET /api/endpoints/{id}/skill.md. The skill tells agents when to use your endpoint, what inputs it expects, what it returns, what it costs, and which payment protocols and networks it supports. Better schemas and richer descriptions produce more useful skills, which drive more calls to your endpoint.
The trust layer
Every provider in the Data Market carries trust signals that agents can filter on. Build these up over time to become the preferred choice when multiple providers offer similar capabilities.verified
Sella-verified providers can be surfaced exclusively through the
verified_only filter, making verification a meaningful competitive advantage.qualityScore
A quality signal derived from Sella’s ongoing evaluation of your endpoint’s responses and schema accuracy.
reliability
Uptime and response consistency measured over time. Agents running critical workflows weight this heavily.
Sella also ingests providers automatically from public registries through its catalog pipeline — connectors, normalize, classify, and dedupe — re-synced daily. Self-registering puts you in the same normalized index those automated entries land in, with the benefit of your own controlled metadata.
Getting paid
Settlement happens per call, in USDC, to your wallet, minus the 3% platform fee. You don’t need to do anything between a call completing and your earnings landing. Track your balance and withdraw from the Dashboard → Earnings page — see Pricing & earnings for the full payout flow.See it from the buyer side
