Monid

Monid connects AI agents to more than 1,800 tools and APIs through one skill, MCP server or CLI, with a single balance and pay-per-call billing.

Monid is a tool router for AI agents. Instead of signing up and paying for each API separately, an agent connects to Monid once and can discover and use more than 1,800 tools and APIs from a shared registry. Agents connect through a skill added to their chat, a remote MCP server, or a command-line tool, and all three use the same registry and balance. Each tool call is paid from one balance, with no subscriptions, and new accounts start with $1 in free credit. Monid is open source, and tool providers can contribute their tools to the project so they appear in the hosted version for every agent.
