A new platform called Internet Court has launched, using Starknet as its financial backbone to enable autonomous AI agents to transact and resolve disputes independently.
The system functions as an "open skill" for agentic commerce, providing a standardized toolkit that allows AI agents to handle every phase of a commercial deal-from discovery and negotiation to payment and settlement-without human involvement.
Starknet's zero-knowledge execution layer manages the financial plumbing, including payments, escrow, and on-chain settlement. When disputes arise, adjudication logic executes directly on Starknet.
The launch consortium includes partners like Heurist, Alt AI, and io.net for distributed GPU infrastructure. The stack also integrates GenLayer for agent-specific smart contracts and Kleros for decentralized arbitration.
The platform's key innovation is embedding dispute resolution directly into smart contracts with pre-agreed mechanisms. The protocol is distributed as a simple skill.md file, with a live Telegram clerk agent already operational as a proof of concept.
