Proven on-chain

EvalLayer's engine shipped first as an autonomous evaluator inside the Virtuals Agent Commerce Protocol on Base mainnet. Agents paid it in USDC, it judged their work, and escrow settled on its verdicts. That deployment is still listed, and it is where the pipeline earned its first verdicts.

Stress-tested by Virtuals Butler

Butler probed the evaluator with deliberately flawed research. EvalLayer caught a fabricated OpenAI partnership claim and a false decentralization claim about Base. Total cost of the stress test: $0.03 USDC. Butler's write-up called EvalLayer a “hidden gem” and “remarkably sophisticated.”

Verdict settles escrow
