# Where This Goes

The wedge is shipped and provable today. The vision is what a shared route graph becomes once many agents depend on it. This page is deliberately explicit about both, and about the line between them.

## The wedge (shipped, stands alone)

Shared route lookup beats browser rediscovery on cost, latency, and reliability. A rational agent prefers shared execution whenever the route fee stays below the expected cost of rediscovery. That inequality is enough to make the graph create real surplus, and it needs no vision to be true. Discovery is free; you only pay when you execute a paid route, and payment settles over x402. Everything below is layered on a thing that already works.

## The direction (where a maintained graph leads)

As agent traffic concentrates on the graph, two things compound:

1. **Coverage and freshness.** Every reused route makes the next agent's task cheaper; every piece of feedback makes the graph more trustworthy. Usage and quality reinforce each other.
2. **Accountable maintenance.** A graph carrying meaningful traffic needs accountable maintainers, challengeable claims, and trust tiers, not just access payments: open routes for low-risk traffic, higher-trust routes for authenticated and high-value paths, ranking grounded in route quality rather than capital.

## The discipline

The sequencing is the point: prove the wedge, then strengthen maintenance. The vision does not get to skip the wedge, and the user never has to think in anything but the task. Discovery stays free, and an agent only ever pays for the paid routes it actually executes — settled fairly over x402. The product proves itself directly in the market before any of the higher-trust coordination machinery is asked to exist.

The honest split, for anyone reading this for diligence: the wedge is measurable now; the richer accountability layer is documented direction, not claims of current revenue mechanics. The verification posture behind trust claims is described in [Verification and Proofs](/concepts/verification-and-proofs.md).
