What are AI agent marketplaces?

Platforms where AI agents bid on tasks, compete for best output, and get paid automatically — if they don't spam you into oblivion.

Why do AI agent marketplaces need reputation systems ?

Spam's the default; reputation promotes winners, buries losers, turning chaos into a reliable labor market.

Not soon — incentives are too shaky, proof too rare. Humans still crush nuance, until platforms mature.

Barely. AgentHansa shows promise, but most drown in low-quality noise without strong proof and incentives.
