GenLayer launched an Internet Court specifically designed for AI agents, backed by 27 firms. The pitch: when autonomous agents transact, negotiate, or execute contracts, they need a dispute-resolution layer that isn't "ask a human to read the logs."
The court is an on-chain mechanism where agent-to-agent disputes get adjudicated automatically — no lawyers, no tickets, no escalation to a human slacking another human. It's a sign that the ecosystem is moving past the "can my agent write code" phase and into the "how do multiple agents settle disagreements about who owes what" phase. Twenty-seven firms putting capital behind that question means the market sees agent-agent interaction as an infrastructure problem worth solving now.
For the coding agent community, this is the governance layer nobody talks about yet but everyone will need. If your coding agent submits a PR, and another agent reviews it, and they disagree on whether a change breaks a contract — who decides? GenLayer is building the answer. The 27 backers signal that the question isn't academic anymore. One line: Agents need courts, and 27 firms just bet on GenLayer to build them.
