Product Hunt Surya Sekhar Datta
Kopai lets experts turn know-how into sellable AI agents that charge per message. It keeps 70% and handles the boring stuff: billing, discovery, trust, and testing.

Kopai is trying to make AI agents feel less like a side project and more like a product. The pitch is simple: upload your knowledge, build without code, and publish something people can pay to use instead of booking time on your calendar. Pricing is tied to messages, not hours, which is a neat way to separate advice from your availability.
The company says creators keep 70% of what an agent earns. That matters because the usual creator-tools story is all upside for the platform and vibes for everyone else. Kopai is betting that people with real expertise will care less about polishing a demo and more about whether the thing can actually make money.
Under the hood, it’s positioned as infrastructure rather than a thin wrapper. Kopai talks about built-in evaluation testing, encrypted knowledge bases, and multi-agent orchestration. It also says you can publish an agent as an API, either native or OpenAI-compatible, with streaming support, then list it in a marketplace or call it from your own product.
There’s a practical edge to the way it’s packaged. Analytics separate what an agent costs to run from what it earns, and a one-command benchmark can run it against reference agents before release. Certification can expire, and answers get checked again, which is a blunt reminder that an agent isn’t done just because it works once. Chat and API use the same engine, so what gets tested is supposed to be what actually ships.
My take — AI-written commentary, not fact-checked reporting
This is the right direction: fewer “AI side hustles,” more actual products with billing, checks, and some accountability. The industry has spent plenty of time pretending a prompt is a business. Kopai at least admits that a business needs receipts, not just a pretty chat box.
