Catena, also known as Catena Labs, is a financial institution designed specifically for AI agents. It combines a technology platform with a national trust bank to create a regulated banking environment where agents can transact securely under human-defined policies. The company aims to transform the global economic system by building AI-native financial infrastructure that allows agents to use money safely and at scale. Catena's platform serves two main areas: banking for AI agents and governance for human customers. For AI agents, it offers services such as verified identities, account management, payments, and liquidity solutions. For human customers, it provides governance tools to set policy limits and oversee agent transactions. The company is actively pursuing OCC-regulated charter status to enhance its banking capabilities and is collaborating with various stakeholders, including businesses, AI developers, and traditional financial institutions, to establish open trust standards for the agent economy.
