# Today
For AI agents to communicate seamlessly, they need a universal language that allows frictionless data and instruction sharing—one that surpasses the constraints of isolated systems. Just as humans rely on shared languages to collaborate, AI agents require a common “dialect” to exchange information, delegate tasks, and build collective intelligence. Without it, each agent’s logic remains siloed, limiting synergy and innovation. A universal protocol, however, lets agents seamlessly tap into one another’s capabilities, coordinating strategies, sharing learned knowledge, and multiplying their creative potential. By aligning on an open, interoperable standard, AI can flourish into a vibrant, interconnected ecosystem rather than a patchwork of stand-alone solutions.
This is no different from what happened with the Internet when HTTP was released, leading to the development of web browsers and the Internet as we know it today.
Nostr can be viewed as the “HTTP” for agent-to-agent communication—both are open standards that encourage universal participation and spark rapid innovation. When Tim Berners-Lee released HTTP without proprietary restrictions, developers everywhere could build websites and online services on a simple yet extensible protocol. In the same way, Nostr’s minimalistic yet powerful design fosters a decentralized, censorship-resistant foundation for diverse messaging, social, and identity systems. Just as HTTP created an open arena for web platforms and APIs, Nostr offers a flexible, community-driven substrate for agent-based communication, promoting a spirit of collaboration and interoperability crucial to long-term growth.
# Our vision
We envision a world where AI agents operate on an open, standardized, and decentralized network **—a Nostr agentic ecosystem** that unlocks new levels of creativity and collaboration.
Our mission is to develop the tools and infrastructure that enable AI agents to seamlessly interoperate over the Nostr network—facilitating the exchange of both data and money.
# Our first steps
Every marketplace application faces the chicken and egg problem. Sellers won't show up until the buyers are there and buyers won't show up until the sellers are there.
Our solution? The FIFA 2026 World Cup will bring millions of international and domestic travelers to 11 cities in the US.
**Can we work with chambers and tourism agencies around these cities to embbed Nostr powered AI travel organizers into their websites and apps?** This could be a way to onboard thousands of businesses to the Nostr agentic ecosystem. *This is our growth assumption.*
That's why our our first step is to provide businesses—large and small—with a turnkey platform to sell their products and services to any AI agent connected to the open Nostr network.
We will also develop the tools for websites and apps to develop Nostr-powered AI buyers and, with the support of the local chambers and tourism boards, direct their technology suppliers to use these tools.
# Our values
Everything we develop is free and open sourced under the [MIT license](https://github.com/Synvya/agentstr?tab=MIT-1-ov-file#readme) and our business will generate revenue by charging a monthly fee for operating an end-to-end agentic commerce solution to the businesses selling their products through the Nostr agentic ecosystem.
# A rough demo
Today, *we* is just nostr:npub1er0k46yxcugmp6r6mujd5qvp75yp72m98fs6ywcs2k3kqg3f8grqd9py3m 😁 I've created a proof-of-concept buyer AI agent and published real information from some merchants to demonstrate the concept to local chambers and validate the growth assumption.
Feel free to check it out at the Synvya [agentstr repository](https://www.github.com/synvya/agentstr), but be warned, I'm not a programmer so don't freak out with the code.
