Option 1: Otto AI DApp
Best for: End users who want a guided web interface with form-driven DeFi mini-agents.
What You Get
The Otto AI DApp is the primary user-facing product: a Next.js web app whose front door is /app Mission Control — a dashboard with mini-agents, market views, and portfolio workflows backed by one non-custodial Safe. For deterministic machine-to-machine access, use ACP, x402, MPP, USDC Gateway, or Otto X directly.
- Mini-Agents — focused, form-driven workflows for swaps, bridges, DCA, and RSI: pick the mini-agent, enter tokens/amounts/leverage, review, and confirm. Every on-chain action requires explicit confirmation.
- Market Insights — live dashboard with 9 sections: daily briefing, market pulse, trending tokens, news, yields, movers, KOL sentiment, Twitter digest, and derivatives data.
- Portfolio Co-Pilot — connect your wallet for instant portfolio overview with smart action suggestions (earn yield, hedge, consolidate, bridge).
Quick Start
- Visit useotto.xyz
- Connect your wallet (browser extension or email sign-up)
- Open
/app Mission Control and pick a mini-agent — enter the amount and confirm
Pricing
- $OTTO holders (50K+): Unlimited daily usage
- Free tier: Daily usage cap with no payment required
Option 2: ACP (via acp-cli or the ACP Web GUI — Butler is deprecated)
Best for: Developers + AI agent operators who want on-chain USDC escrow, signed receipts, and ERC-8004 reputation.
Butler is deprecated. The Twitter/Web-GUI middleman that routed user requests to Otto’s agents is no longer the canonical path. Use acp-cli directly (or the ACP Web GUI) to call Otto’s four agents. The section below preserves the legacy Butler flow for reference only. How It Works
The Agent Commerce Protocol (ACP) is Virtuals’ decentralized marketplace for AI agent services. Today, the post-Butler path is to install @virtuals-protocol/acp-cli and call Otto’s agents directly — see the acp-cli quickstart for the end-to-end flow. The legacy Butler relay below is no longer maintained. Otto AI’s agent architecture — escrowed fund transfers, evaluator-based job completion, and gasless smart account execution — is designed to be ERC-8183 (Agentic Commerce) ready when the standard launches on-chain.
Access Methods
Legacy Butler/Twitter route:
The older @Butler_agent relay is preserved for historical context, but new integrations should use acp-cli, the ACP Web GUI, or a direct HTTP storefront.
Via ACP Web GUI:
- Visit app.virtuals.io/acp
- Search for “Otto AI” agents
- Submit jobs directly through the interface
Pricing
ACP jobs are priced in USDC. See individual agent pages for current pricing:
Option 3: Otto x402 Storefront
Best for: Developers and AI agents who want fast, programmatic access with micropayments.
How It Works
The x402 V2 protocol enables pay-per-request API access using the HTTP 402 status code. No API keys or registration required — pay with USDC on Base, Polygon, or Solana.
Quick Start
- Fund a wallet with USDC on Base, Polygon, or Solana
- Use the
@x402/axios V2 client library
- Make requests to
https://x402.ottoai.services
import { wrapAxiosWithPayment, x402Client } from '@x402/axios';
import { ExactEvmScheme } from '@x402/evm/exact/client';
import { toClientEvmSigner } from '@x402/evm';
const client = new x402Client();
client.register('eip155:*', new ExactEvmScheme(signer));
const api = wrapAxiosWithPayment(
axios.create({ baseURL: 'https://x402.ottoai.services' }),
client
);
const response = await api.get('/crypto-news');
x402 V2 Features
- SIWX: Pay once for data endpoints, re-access free for 1 hour with wallet signature
- Signed Receipts: Cryptographic proof of service delivery (EIP-712) on every call
- Bazaar Discovery: Read-only endpoints discoverable by AI agents on CDP Bazaar
- Permit2 Ready: Infrastructure supports any ERC-20 token — contact us for custom integrations
Pricing
All prices in USDC. Example endpoints:
| Endpoint | Price | Description |
|---|
/crypto-news | $0.001 | Real-time market news |
/token-alpha | $0.001 | Premium token intelligence |
/generate-meme | $0.50 | AI image generation |
/mega-report | $0.05 | Alpha & Intel Report — daily market briefing |
Option 4: Otto MPP Storefront
Best for: Tempo/Stripe clients that need paid reads and query tools without principal movement.
MPP exposes Otto’s blessed read-only/query catalog: Market Alpha reads, AI research and creative query endpoints, and wallet-scoped trading resources. It intentionally does not expose swaps, bridges, deposits, withdrawals, Hyperliquid order execution, or any other principal-moving POST route.
Storefront docs: Otto MPP Storefront
Option 5: Otto USDC Storefront
Best for: High-frequency agents that want gas-free paid reads funded by Circle Gateway USDC.
The USDC Gateway surface is a compact read subset for agents that already keep funds in a GatewayWallet. It is not a replacement for x402 execution or ACP jobs.
Storefront docs: Otto USDC Storefront
Option 6: Otto X Storefront
Best for: X Layer users and agents that want OKX Onchain OS integrations, X Layer-native payment, or autonomous sub-wallet execution.
Otto X has its own catalog: market intelligence, AI tools, X Layer DEX reads, TEE-custodied sub-wallet execution, Yield Copilot, and Yield Watch. It overlaps with the main swarm but is not a one-for-one mirror of x402 or MPP.
Storefront docs: Otto X Storefront
Option 7: OpenClaw Skills
Best for: AI agents using the OpenClaw framework who want pre-built skill integrations.
What is OpenClaw?
OpenClaw is a popular framework for building AI agents. Otto AI provides skill files that enable OpenClaw agents to access our services.

B. Virtuals OpenClaw ACP (Generic ACP Access)
Virtuals provides an official OpenClaw integration for accessing ANY ACP agent, including Otto AI.
Repository: github.com/Virtual-Protocol/openclaw-acp
Tools Provided:
browse_agents - Discover ACP agentsexecute_acp_job - Submit jobs to any agentpoll_job - Check job statusget_wallet_balance - Check agent assets
Use this if: You want your agent to discover and use multiple ACP agents dynamically.
Option 8: Marketplaces & Mini Apps
Otto AI is also listed on third-party agent marketplaces and platforms for broader discovery.
Moltlaunch
Otto AI agents are listed on the Moltlaunch agent marketplace, expanding discoverability within the AI agent ecosystem.
Base Mini App
Otto AI is available as a Base Mini App within the Farcaster ecosystem, providing access directly from the Base social layer.
Option 9: Base MCP
Best for: Anyone running an AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex) with a Base Account who wants to bring Otto’s intelligence into their existing chat.
What You Get
Base MCP connects your Base Account to your AI assistant and can pay any x402-enabled service. Otto’s services are live x402 endpoints with USDC on Base — so your assistant can call Otto’s market alpha, KOL sentiment, yield discovery, token security, and AI research and settle each call from your Base Account. You approve and pay per call.
This is the interactive path: you drive Otto, you approve each move. Otto’s Base MCP skill deliberately exposes read-only intelligence and research only — not swaps or perps — because paying an x402 endpoint signs a payment, not the underlying trade. Act on Otto’s intelligence with your wallet’s own tools, or step up to Otto autonomy for bounded set-and-forget delegation.
Quick Start
- Install Base MCP in your assistant: docs.base.org/ai-agents/quickstart
- Point it at Otto’s skill:
https://x402.ottoai.services/otto.md
- Ask for alpha — e.g. “What’s the top USDC yield on Base right now?” — and approve the small USDC payment in your Base Account.
Machine-readable catalog: https://x402.ottoai.services/otto-x402-catalog.json
Which Should I Choose?
I'm an end user
I'm building an app
I'm building an AI agent
Use the DApp. Guided web interface — /app Mission Control with form-driven mini-agents, dashboards, and portfolio tools. No payment required for the free tier. Use x402 Direct API. Fastest response times, simple USDC payments, full API documentation.
Use OpenClaw Skills if you’re using the OpenClaw framework. Otherwise, use x402 directly.
Feature Availability by Channel
Not all services are available on all channels. This is a product-channel overview, not a generated endpoint matrix.
For exact endpoint counts and capability coverage across x402, MPP, USDC Gateway, Otto X, and ACP, see Access Paths & Coverage.
DApp availability can be a guided product workflow rather than a one-for-one machine endpoint. Agent builders should treat the storefront discovery docs as the source of truth for programmatic access.
