An autonomous economic agent (AEA) is a software entity that can perform actions without human intervention or control. AEAs can operate on their own behalf after being created and given a directive, transforming them into a type of agency. On the Fetch.ai platform, each agent’s wallet contains a unique identifier that allows the AEA to transact with the network’s native FET tokens. AEAs can exist solely as software, as an application programming interface (API), or as hardware in the real world (like a thermometer or other type of sensor).
