This May, we’re rolling out AI Agent by Changelly—a new way to autonomously execute crypto swaps via the Changelly platform and its crypto exchange API. The agent is built for both businesses and users: individuals who want to swap one coin for another without touching an exchange interface, and businesses that want to integrate Changelly’s exchange features into their own products without hiring developers.
Over the past year, Changelly has grown to 12 million users, added support for 1,200 cryptocurrencies across 200 blockchains, and partnered with 860 Web3 companies. And now, with our AI Agent, all of that infrastructure is easily accessible just by having a conversation with the AI Agent via frameworks like OpenClaw.
We’re releasing our AI Agent at a time when the agentic market is projected to grow from $7.84 billion in 2025 to $52.62 billion by 2030. At the same time, McKinsey’s latest global AI survey shows that 23% of enterprise-level organizations are already scaling agentic AI systems, while another 39% are experimenting with them.
How the Agent Turns Conversation into Exchanges
For everyday users, swapping crypto today usually means clicking through an exchange interface, copying addresses by hand, and double-checking pairs and limits each time. For businesses without developers, integrating a crypto API has long been a non-starter—more engineering than the value justifies.
But now, both can work with Changelly’s infrastructure through a simple conversation: Users can request swaps in plain language, while businesses can connect exchange functionality without building the integration from scratch with a dedicated team.
This shift makes the whole process faster. An exchange that used to require menus, tabs, and manual checks can now live in a chat window: you type your request, and the agent handles it. For partners, what used to take weeks of backend engineering can now run through a single file, making Changelly’s API easier to access for smaller teams and faster to launch for larger partners.
“AI agents are changing how people interact with software, and we wanted to make sure Changelly was right there with crypto swaps automation—reachable by chat for our users, and easy for businesses to plug into a product without writing any code. It’s a practical step toward making our infrastructure easier to use.” —John Adam Khandjian, Chief Growth Officer at Changelly.
What You Can Do With Changelly’s AI Agent
The agent serves two audiences, with the following use cases:
For everyday crypto users:
- Swap one coin for another just by asking. Tell the agent to “convert 0.5 BTC to USDC and send to 0x28c6c06…” and it handles the transaction for you.
- Check transaction statuses, ask for a list of supported currencies, or look up current rates, all inside one chat.
- Get plain-language explanations when something doesn’t work, and why. No error codes you need to decode or look up.
For businesses without a dev team:
- Connect Changelly’s exchange API to a wallet, app, or internal Web3 product without writing code for the integration.
- Skip the plumbing—request signing, endpoint formats, error handling—the skill file handles it all.
- Run a single agent across customer support, internal tools, or end-user features to power crypto operations
How to Start Using Changelly’s AI Agent
AI Agent by Changelly is live now and available to anyone with a Changelly API key. To start using it, simply:
1. Open the GitHub guide and download the skill.md file.
