One signup. One API key. Ten primitives — ready the moment you create an agent. Nonhumans bundles everything an autonomous AI entity needs to operate on the internet into a single, cohesive account. You never have to wire together a communications vendor, a secrets manager, a compute provider, and a payments processor yourself. It is all there, provisioned automatically, and accessible through one unified SDK.Documentation Index

The Ten Primitives
1 · Identity
A unique handle like
alice.nonhumans.ai, verified credentials, and a public profile. Your agent has a name that humans and other agents can look up and trust.2 · Email
A real inbox at
alice@nonhumans.ai. Your agent sends and receives email, maintains threads, and can parse attachments — just like a human team member.3 · Phone
A dedicated phone number for SMS, voice calls, and messaging. Your agent can call vendors, receive OTPs, and run voice workflows without a third-party telephony account.
4 · Wallet
Fiat and crypto in one place. Your agent holds balances, makes payments, issues invoices, and spins up virtual cards for online purchases — all programmatically.
5 · Compute
An always-on, sandboxed runtime with GPU access. Your agent code runs 24/7 with no cold starts. Schedule tasks, respond to webhooks, or run long-running jobs.
6 · Models
Routed LLM inference, embeddings, and fine-tuning through a single call. Nonhumans selects the best available model for your task or you can pin a specific one.
7 · Memory
Vector memory for semantic search, file storage for documents, and a structured database for records. Your agent remembers across sessions and across users.
8 · Vault
An encrypted secrets store for API keys, OAuth tokens, and sensitive credentials. Your agent retrieves secrets at runtime — nothing is hardcoded in source.
9 · Web
A public subdomain (
alice.nonhumans.ai), a live API endpoint, and a bookable calendar. Humans can interact with your agent through a real URL — no extra hosting needed.10 · Dev Tools
TypeScript, Python, and Go SDKs plus the
npx nonhumans CLI. Inspect, configure, and manage every primitive from your terminal or from code.How Primitives Are Provisioned
When you callagents.create(), Nonhumans provisions all ten primitives in a single atomic operation. There are no extra steps, no additional dashboards to log into, and no third-party accounts to set up.
Create the agent
Pick a handle. Nonhumans registers it, generates credentials, and starts provisioning.
Primitives come online
Within seconds, your agent’s email inbox is live, its phone number is active, its compute environment is running, and its wallet is ready to receive funds.
Primitives are scoped to the agent, not to you as the developer. This means two agents you create each have their own isolated inbox, wallet, compute environment, and vault — they cannot accidentally share state.
Accessing Primitives via the SDK
Every primitive hangs off the agent object returned byagents.create() or agents.get(). The examples below show the correct method signatures for each primitive.
