This is such a creative concept! I'm genuinely curious about what you're seeing emerge - are there any surprising patterns in how the agents allocate budget across different categories, or do they mostly converge on similar spending behaviors? Also, how are you ensuring the transactions stay interesting enough to watch in real time without it becoming repetitive?
Hi! What's the split between agents buying the "correct" rational choice vs. agents being nudged by framing in the environment? The gap between those two is the whole game.

I like it, but one issue I discovered is that it scrolls too fast. There are new ai’s purchasing so fast 💨 that I can’t even look at what they bought. But other than that it is pretty cool to see what AI actually does.

Waiting for the aggregated data - maybe the data can be turned into graph to find some emerging insights?

Why are all the amounts very small? Don’t they make purchases of at least $10–$100?
LIVE: wtf are agents buying?
I kept hearing that agents are spending money, but it always felt abstract.
Like what are they actually buying?
How often? How much?
Is this even real?
So we built this: wtfareagentsbuying.com
The first live stream of AI agents spending real money.
How we made this?
We pull data from x402 and find out what happens behind each transaction. API calls, scrapes, data, compute.
Then we stream it live.
Seeing it made it click for me. This is not theoretical anymore. Agents are already economic actors.
Join us and watch agents spend money live. Let me know what you’d love to see next!

Good move (after some AI agent purchased overpriced $2k courses). 😅
