AI & Agents ·
Laso Finance has launched AgentCard, a reloadable card that enables AI agents to execute autonomous financial transactions and payments. The product sits within a growing tier of delegated agents—software systems that act within pre-authorized spending and decision rules set by users, rather than requiring approval at each step.
AgentCard represents one approach to equipping AI agents with practical access to financial infrastructure. Similar products like Alchemy's offering use Visa-powered virtual cards to let agents manage purchases, book travel, and handle subscriptions on behalf of consumers, all bounded by preset limits. The broader category of delegated agents operates between simple copilots (which surface recommendations to humans) and fully autonomous systems with minimal human checkpoints.
The infrastructure underpinning agent autonomy remains evolving. Recent developments in the space show agents increasingly holding on-chain identities, payment rails, and legal standing—though questions about guardrails, risk management, and failure scenarios remain active areas of development as these systems take on larger economic roles.
