AI payment infrastructure Kite’s ecosystem has launched Marathon, an adaptive inference infrastructure for long-running AI Agents. For each request, users can select a completion window across four tiers: now, soon, later, anytime, with longer wait times translating to lower costs. The deepest tier offers up to ~65% savings compared to real-time pricing (discount is an estimate and fluctuates based on real-time capacity). The service features an OpenAI-compatible API, plus a one-command install plugin for Claude Code and Codex. At launch, it supports five leading open-weight models: Kimi K3, GLM 5.2, DeepSeek V4 Pro, Qwen3.6-35B-A3B, and Nemotron 3 Ultra, all under a unified pricing structure. Details are available at marathon.build. Notably, Kite previously secured $33 million in funding led by PayPal Ventures and General Catalyst. The launch of Marathon marks a key step in its expansion from Agent identity and payment networks to the underlying computing infrastructure of the Agent economy, aiming to enable a full loop of Agents’ “autonomous calling and autonomous payment”.
