Innovation in decentralized applications is entering a new phase as autonomous AI agents transform how modern crypto users engage with the digital economy. 

From real-time trading copilots to decentralized AI networks, these AI agents signal a promising future that is no longer theoretical but is now here.

By redefining how transactions are researched, initiated, and executed onchain, AI agents are also shifting priorities across Web3 and placing new demands on the foundations that support it.

Wallet infrastructure, for example, must now be uncompromisingly secure while keeping pace with the speed and intelligence these agents require. The shift is prompting builders to rethink the tools and safeguards their applications depend on and to make strategic changes that meet these new expectations.

It’s also why so many in this space are turning to Turnkey.

Why AI agents x Turnkey

Turnkey is distinct in its ability to embed security and control at the very foundation of wallet infrastructure without sacrificing speed. By uniting programmable key management with policy-based transaction rules, Turnkey gives AI agents the freedom to operate independently while keeping them within clearly defined boundaries.

For developers, this means the ability to design autonomous workflows with confidence, knowing policies are built in from the start. It also ensures that every action taken on behalf of their users is deliberate, authorized, and secure. This balance of autonomy and assurance makes Turnkey the logical choice as a wallet infrastructure partner.

But the real measure of any infrastructure is what’s built on it, and the projects using Turnkey today offer a glimpse of how AI-driven experiences are taking shape and what’s still to come.

With over 200K machine-initiated transactions per day, our customers are showing us how these autonomous systems are already moving from proof of concept to production, revealing new opportunities for next-generation decentralized applications. 

What Turnkey’s customers are building

Here are some of the most innovative platforms using Turnkey infrastructure to give their agents access to a secure, frictionless blockchain and redefine what’s possible when autonomous intelligence meets web3.

Spectral Labs builds tools for creating and deploying autonomous AI agents that operate fully onchain. Its platform turns natural language into executable blockchain actions, making automation and DeFi access simple and decentralized.

Parallel Studios (Wayfinder) transforms gameplay with LLM-powered trading agents that operate inside an immersive gaming world. This fusion of AI and interactive storytelling creates dynamic, ever-evolving experiences that keep players deeply engaged.

Surf Copilot uses AI to cut through crypto’s information overload, distilling market data, news, and onchain activity into clear, actionable takeaways. Its chat-powered workspace keeps research, analysis, and execution in one streamlined interface.

Pass App transforms a smart contract wallet into an AI-driven copilot capable of executing swaps, trades, and portfolio moves from plain-language commands. Built-in passkeys, scam alerts, and recovery tools keep every action secure.

OpenPond by Duck AI Labs is a decentralized coordination layer where AI agents communicate, exchange value, and verify trust. Each agent operates with its own secure wallet for autonomous, human-free transactions.

‍Armor Wallet merges AI-assisted trading, research, and transaction management in a single secure platform. Programmable access controls and key management remove the need for seed phrases or browser extensions.

Donut, built on Solana, is the first crypto agentic browser — the low-latency automation framework and the unified execution front end for all financial agents.. Embedded wallets give AI agents the ability to transact and execute at Solana’s speed without compromising control.

Milo On Chains acts as a personal crypto companion, deploying autonomous trading agents with predefined guardrails. Each agent operates independently while staying within the parameters the user defines.

‍Turnkey × AI: The road ahead

By pairing autonomous intelligence with secure, programmable wallets, we’re witnessing the emergence of a new wave of decentralized applications, faster, smarter, and more adaptable than anything that came before. And this is only the start. 

As AI agents mature, the convergence of autonomous execution and secure onchain foundations will unlock entirely new categories of financial, governance, and social systems worldwide.

Quickly, AI agents are moving from experimental novelties to indispensable actors in the onchain economy. Their ability to operate with speed, intelligence, and autonomy is set to redefine how individuals and organizations transact, invest, and build in web3.

By embedding secure wallets directly into these platforms and enforcing fine-grained, policy-based controls, Turnkey delivers the trust layer that allows autonomous execution to scale safely. As adoption accelerates, the crypto landscape will be shaped by a partnership between humans and AI agents, working in concert, powered by Turnkey.
