102. Safe (Gnosis Safe) - Multi-Signature Wallet & AI Agent

Basic Information

Product Description

Safe is a leading multi-signature smart contract wallet platform widely used by DAOs, teams, and individuals for on-chain asset management. In the era of AI agents, Safe envisions that "the AI agent economy will run on Smart Accounts" and provides official documentation and tools for AI agents to interact with Safe wallets. Safe's multi-signature mechanism is naturally suited for AI agent scenarios—agents can act as one of the signers (human-in-the-loop) or operate autonomously within defined policy limits through Safe modules.
