Unmarshal Data Layer: Fuel for AI Agents
The AI Agent economy is rapidly growing into one of Web3’s most transformative layers.
Fetch AI alone records over 2 million live AI agents, each automating tasks like transaction execution, etc. And that’s just one network. In the coming years, that number won’t just double, it will multiply across every protocol, platform, and chain in Web3.
Across the ecosystem, AI agents are becoming the backbone of autonomous infrastructure; operating faster than humans ever could.
But there’s one thing every autonomous agent, no matter how advanced, depends on: Data.
Not raw blocks or fragmented RPC endpoints but clean, structured, real-time on-chain data. They must know what’s happening across chains; who’s transacting, which tokens are moving, what assets are held, and how protocols are behaving. Without that data, they can’t perform tasks. That’s where Unmarshal comes in.
Let’s find out how in this blog we’ll explore how Unmarshal serves as the core data layer for AI-driven systems across Web3.
Turning On-Chain Data into Machine-Readable Context
AI agents are not designed to decode block data directly. They don’t sift through logs or manually index events. Instead, they rely on structured, enriched datasets that can be consumed and acted on in real time.
Unmarshal bridges that gap by transforming low-level on-chain activity into contextualized API responses; fast, reliable, and formatted for automated systems.
The API suite spans:
- DeFi: Includes APIs that provide access to comprehensive data on token assets, transactions, P&L, and more.
- NFT: Comprises a list of data APIs including NFT Assets, NFT transactions, NFT ID, etc.
- Notification: An API that allows you to get notified on all transactions carried out by a wallet.
Every endpoint is optimized for real-time delivery and indexed across multiple chains simultaneously. This allows agents to query data without processing or assembling the data themselves.
Real-Time Responsiveness at Scale
Responsiveness is essential for agent execution. Whether tracking an imminent liquidation, responding to protocol state changes, or capturing high-frequency events, the ability to query accurate data in real time is non-negotiable.
Unmarshal’s infrastructure guarantees low-latency responses (under 100ms latency) and pushes updates within seconds of finality. With these APIs, agents can react instantly to changing network states.
This timing advantage directly translates into smarter execution, minimized risk windows, and competitive edge for AI-based automation.
One API, All Chains
AI agents are increasingly designed to operate across chains. For use cases such as bridging, arbitrage, protocol routing, and wallet-level analysis, cross-chain visibility is non-negotiable.
Unmarshal offers a unified interface for querying on-chain data from 50+ networks. Agents can run multi-chain logic without juggling multiple providers, APIs or schema variations. Every response follows a standard structure regardless of chain, allowing developers to focus on logic rather than integration.
This abstraction layer is particularly critical for agents that aggregate liquidity, track wrapped assets, monitor DAOs across L2s, or interface with bridged contracts.
Basically makes it possible to build truly cross-chain agents with minimal overhead.
Conclusion
The future of Web3 will be increasingly autonomous.
Their speed, autonomy, and ability to scale far beyond human capacity make them ideal for monitoring, optimizing, and executing in complex, multi-chain environments.
But none of it works without data that is structured, fast, trustworthy, and complete.
That’s what Unmarshal bridges. It’s a foundational layer that enables artificial intelligence to happen on-chain and across chains all at once.
As the agent economy scales, Unmarshal APIs will remain the fuel behind every action.
