Ensemble, a decentralized artificial intelligence agent platform, has integrated with enterprise-grade messaging protocol XMTP to power the next level of adoption of AI agents in decentralized messaging. Summary AI agents platform Ensemble has integrated with messaging protocol XMTP. The integration will see Ensemble bring chat-native experiences to users. XMTP powers web3 protocols such as Base, Lens and Farcaster. The integration allows Ensemble to expand its Agent Hub marketplace, with users now able to tap into support for XMTP for a chat-native agent economy. With XMTP powering nearly 1 million identities and more than 63 million activated wallets, the collaboration means Ensemble users can pay for autonomous agents either directly from their wallets or across any of the applications built on XMTP, without switching platforms. “AI agents are rapidly becoming an integral part of how people work and interact online, but until now they’ve been locked into siloed apps and platforms. With Ensemble building on XMTP, they’re enabling a chat-native agent economy that works anywhere the XMTP network reaches, across wallets, social apps, and the XMTP protocols. It’s a big step toward a world where secure, decentralized messaging connects people, AI, and money without friction or lock-in,” said Peter Denton of XMTP.

Ensemble will benefit from XMTP’s infrastructure, which helps turn complex workflows into simple, user-friendly, chat-native experiences. The integration brings the same messaging capabilities for decentralized protocols that are already in use across leading web3 apps, including Base, Farcaster, and Lens. Ensemble’s march in the AI agents space includes a decentralized finance alert with tiered subscriptions that users can pay for directly in chat. The protocol is also looking at a DeFi analyst agent expected to bring features such as on-demand analysis, quotes and pay per query to users. Users will be able to request and receive results within the same XMTP thread. The platform also eyes AI agents for far more complex workflows, such as queries on optimizing yield farming. “Our mission is to bring AI agents to the masses by making them as trustworthy,accessible and useful as possible,” says Shamir Ozery, co-founder and chief executive officer of Ensemble. Ensemble and XMTP team up as the latter looks to capitalize on a $20 million funding round to accelerate growth and adoption of its web3 messaging infrastructure stack.
