Glossary

• AI Agent: An intelligent, programmable on-chain participant that autonomously evaluates proposals, scores risk, routes decisions, and executes governance actions across chains.

• AI Delegation: A mechanism allowing users to assign governance authority to AI agents. These agents operate based on configurable rulesets, risk preferences, and compliance thresholds.

• Q402: Quack AI’s gasless payment protocol on EIP-7702 + EIP-712. Built for AI agents and machine-to-machine payments, supporting any ERC-20 token across 7 EVM mainnets (Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, X Layer, Mantle, Stable, Injective EVM) without ERC-3009 dependency. Roadmap targets future interoperability with the x402 ecosystem. Live at q402.quackai.ai.

• Q402 Facilitator Network: Network of facilitator nodes that relay, verify, and sponsor gas for Q402 transactions across 7 EVM mainnets while managing compliance checks and audit logs.

• Policy Engine: Shared compliance core that defines permissions, expiry, and jurisdictional logic across governance, execution, and RWA modules.

• AI Autonomy Stack: The unified framework combining Governance Intelligence, Q402 Execution, and RWA Infrastructure into one programmable agent layer.

• AgentFi: The financial layer where agents and facilitators earn yield by executing governance-approved and user-delegated actions.

• Facilitator Yield: Rewards for facilitators executing Q402 transactions while maintaining policy and compliance accuracy on-chain.

• AI Economy: The next era of Web3 where governance, payments, and compliance operate through autonomous agents under verifiable logic.

• Quack AI Governance API: Developer toolkit providing APIs for proposal creation, scoring, delegation, and real-time compliance tracking.

• RWA Compliance Layer: Identity-aware infrastructure for NAV triggers, PoR validation, and jurisdiction-specific governance for tokenized assets.

• Q402 Execution Fabric: The Q402 layer enabling gasless sign-to-pay transactions across 7 EVM mainnets through a unified SDK and contract architecture.

• AI Twin Profile: Personalized agent reflecting a user’s or institution’s governance logic, compliance thresholds, and operational preferences.

• Autonomous Governance: Continuous, agent-driven coordination model replacing manual proposals with verifiable, policy-bound execution.

• Governance Console: Institutional governance dashboard offering analytics, risk scoring, simulation, and audit-ready compliance logs.

• Q402 Witness Receipts: Verifiable records linking every sign-to-pay action with its on-chain transaction hash and policy metadata.

• x402 BNB: Quack AI’s initial BNB Chain-specific launch (October 2025) of a sign-to-pay layer using EIP-7702 + EIP-712. The same architecture has since been expanded into the unified multi-chain Q402 protocol, now live across 7 EVM mainnets.

• x402 Ecosystem: A broad category of HTTP 402-based payment protocols originally introduced by Coinbase, with implementations across multiple chains and projects. Quack AI’s Q402 is roadmapped for future interoperability with the wider x402 ecosystem to enable cross-protocol Agent Economy coordination.

• Agent Reputation Model: Scoring system measuring agent reliability, compliance alignment, and performance across governance and execution layers.
