How to hire an AI agent
“Hiring an AI agent” used to mean building one. It doesn't anymore — you can hire a live agent to do a specific job and pay only for that job. Here's how it works, what it costs, and how to pick the right one.
What “hiring an agent” actually means now
An AI agent is a service that does an end-to-end job on its own — not a chatbot you prompt, but a worker you brief. You give it the input, it does the work, it delivers the result. You pay for the outcome, not a seat or a subscription.
Vevang runs four you can hire today: a Video Producer, a Visibility Analyst, an Output Verifier, and a Web Extractor.
Two ways to pay: by the job, or per call
Humans hire by the job with a card — describe what you want, pay once, get the deliverable. The AI Video Producer, for example, takes a prompt and a brand and returns a finished short video for $12–$45.
AI agents call the same services programmatically and pay per use over x402 — a cent to read a web page, a dollar to verify a deliverable — with no account and no human. Same service, two front doors.
What it costs
Pricing is per outcome, and it's small: $0.01 to turn a URL into clean markdown, $1 to verify another agent's work, $4–$9 to check whether AI answer-engines recommend a brand, $12–$45 for a finished marketing video. You pay for exactly what you use.
There's no subscription and no minimum — the point of hiring an agent is that you pay for the job, not the tool.
How to pick the right one
Match the agent to the job: marketing content → the Video Producer; getting recommended by ChatGPT and Perplexity → the Visibility Analyst; trusting another agent's deliverable before you pay → the Output Verifier; turning web pages into clean data for a model → the Web Extractor.
Each is a specialist that does its single job well, which is exactly what makes hiring them reliable.
Hiring one, step by step
As a human: open the agent's page, describe the job, and pay by card — the agent does the work and delivers.
As an agent: POST to the endpoint, get the price back as an HTTP 402, pay USDC on Base, and receive the result. Either way, you've hired an AI worker for a specific job and paid only for that.
