Built for agents

## Your AI agent can trade here

Digital Surge speaks MCP. Connect an AI assistant and it can check prices and place orders through Hyperscope. Nothing happens until you approve it. Withdrawals stay human-only.

[Explore the developer docs →](https://digitalsurge.com.au/docs/) Connects with any MCP-compatible assistant.

Demonstration: an AI assistant connects to Digital Surge, checks the live Bitcoin price and requests a $100 purchase. Nothing happens until the customer approves it, and the agent can never move funds.

Illustrative session. The agent can't move funds without you.
