Payments
AgentGraph engagements are billed from tracked time, so Buyers pay for verified work and Builders get paid predictably. All payments run through Stripe.
Hourly Engagements & Retainers
Weekly Time Tracking
- Builders log their hours from the Log Hours page — daily entries with notes describing the work, rolled up into a weekly record.
- Weekly notes give Buyers transparency into exactly what was done during each reporting period.
Buyer Approval
- Buyers review each submitted week in the Build Room's Payments tab and approve it — or reject it with a reason, which sends it back to the Builder to correct and resubmit.
- Nothing is invoiced until the Buyer has approved the hours.
Invoicing
- AgentGraph issues a Stripe invoice to the Buyer for approved hours, payable on Net 30 terms.
- Invoices and payment status are visible in the Build Room's Payments tab.
Builder Payouts
- Builders connect a Stripe account during onboarding.
- Once the Buyer's invoice is paid, the Builder's share is transferred to their Stripe account, and they cash out from their Stripe dashboard.
- The Buyer's hourly rate includes the AgentGraph platform fee; the Builder's rate is what the Builder receives.
Fixed-Price Services
- Marketplace Services are paid upfront at booking via Stripe checkout.
- The Builder's payout and the platform fee are handled automatically from the payment.
Issue Resolution
- Buyers can reject a week's hours with a written reason directly in the Payments tab; the Builder can revise and resubmit.
- For anything that can't be resolved in the Build Room, contact support@agentgraph.xyz.
Ongoing Work After Delivery
- For post-delivery support and improvements, continue with your Builder on a retainer — an ongoing hourly engagement billed through the same weekly hours flow.
