Sperax becomes IBM Business Partner to bring open-source DeFi AI agents to enterprises
Sperax, the DeFi protocol behind the auto-yield stablecoin USDs, has become an official IBM Business Partner. The partnership combines Sperax's open-source AI agent workspace, SperaxOS, with IBM's enterprise AI, hybrid cloud infrastructure, and global go-to-market reach. SperaxOS enables governed, verifiable on-chain transactions through over 100 built-in DeFi tools, a guarded execution layer with spend limits and risk scoring, and an on-chain agent economy where agents register as NFTs under the ERC-8004 standard on Arbitrum. As part of the roadmap, Sperax plans to integrate IBM's watsonx model family into its multi-provider runtime, bringing IBM Granite models to agent inference and governance tooling to the platform's risk and compliance layer. Sperax has raised $16.8 million from investors including Jump Crypto, Polychain Capital, and Amber Group, and previously announced infrastructure backing from Google Cloud.
