Zauth 402 Integration
Zauth is DAEMON's embedded x402 database and Provider Hub surface, not pricing copy.
Integration Scope#
DAEMON embeds Zauth Database and Provider Hub as an operator surface for 402/provider management. Users can inspect payment/provider configuration from DAEMON while DAEMON AI entitlement checks remain server-side.
| Surface | URL | Use |
|---|---|---|
| Database | https://zauth.inc/database | Inspect and manage 402-related records and access data |
| Provider Hub | https://zauth.inc/provider-hub | Manage provider setup and operational 402 configuration |
| DAEMON integration card | Desktop app | Open embedded Zauth pages and review integration status |
| DAEMON side panel | Desktop app | Quick access to Database, Hub, or the full Zauth workspace tool |
Recommended Boundary#
- Use Zauth as the operator-facing 402 management surface.
- Keep DAEMON AI entitlement checks in DAEMON AI Cloud.
- Keep model provider keys and premium workflow assets server-side.
- Treat Zauth as an integration layer unless DAEMON formally adopts it as production payment authority.
Next Steps#
- Decide whether Zauth is official production payment authority or an embedded management integration.
- Document which DAEMON resources are protected by 402 payments.
- Add a backend contract for entitlement sync if Zauth becomes authoritative for
DAEMON_AI_API_BASE. - Validate the full payment, entitlement, and hosted DAEMON AI request flow with real accounts.
