NeoIgnite is now operating as a Labs studio on Neo N3, building and launching standalone consumer-facing products for the ecosystem. The project team, which now describes itself as “the umbrella Labs identity” behind its releases, has shipped two TestNet applications in the span of nine days: NeoMeme, a meme token launchpad, on May 3, and AgentPay N3, a payment system for autonomous AI agents, on May 11.

The Labs model follows a pivot from NeoIgnite’s earlier direction. The project first appeared in 2025 with plans for a treasury-backed token built around bNEO. That concept became unviable after NeoBurger announced its plans to shut down in February 2026, a consequence of Neo governance changes that eliminated the $GAS rewards on which NeoBurger’s yield model depended. NeoIgnite shifted to building standalone products instead.

NeoMeme

NeoMeme is a meme token launchpad for Neo N3, modeled after Pump.Fun on Solana. Users can create and launch meme tokens that begin trading on an automated bonding curve that adjusts prices based on supply and demand. When a token’s $GAS reserves reach a set threshold, it automatically graduates to AMM liquidity.

The system uses two core contracts: a PlatformContract that manages the bonding curve mechanics and an AMMPool that handles post-graduation liquidity. The model mirrors the approach Pump.Fun popularized on Solana, where low-friction token creation and automated market mechanics drove significant memecoin activity throughout 2024 and 2025.

NeoIgnite has described NeoMeme as bringing “launch mechanics, culture, market energy, token discovery” to Neo – areas where Neo N3 has seen limited activity. The TestNet application is live, and NeoIgnite issued a call for community stress testing shortly after launch.

AgentPay N3

AgentPay N3 is a $GAS-native payment rail designed for AI agent commerce on Neo N3. The system allows agents to register a public commercial identity and payout address, then receive payment in $GAS for completed work – prompts, tasks, API calls, or agent-to-agent transactions. The TestNet application is live and available for testing.

The protocol uses a set of smart contracts covering agent registration, payment routing, usage accounting, cashback distribution, and protocol configuration. An AgentRegistry contract lets agents publish a payout address on-chain, while a PaymentRouter handles $GAS-denominated settlement and fee splitting. Registration is available through either a browser wallet flow with NeoLine or an autonomous local signer for headless operation.

A revenue simulator on the project site illustrates the default fee split: on a 50 $GAS payment from a customer, a 2% platform fee yields 1 $GAS, the agent receives 49 $GAS, and 0.50 $GAS flows to a reward pool designed to seed cashback loops for repeat users. The figures are presented as illustrative defaults rather than fixed protocol parameters.

Agent directory and local signer

A live agent directory hosted on the project site pulls active agent IDs directly from the TestNet registry, allowing developers to inspect agent metadata and verify payout hashes without connecting a wallet. The directory serves as a foundation for any future agent marketplace or reputation layer built on top of the rail.

The platform also bundles a downloadable local signer that holds wallet key material outside of the agent process and approves payments against a user-set maximum $GAS limit per transaction. The signer is meant to run on localhost only, addressing the wallet-isolation problem that has limited prior attempts at autonomous agent-to-agent settlement.

Roadmap

The project site describes a four-phase rollout. Phase 1, which is currently live, covers agent registration and payment. Phase 2 introduces automated usage accounting through the UsageLedger contract. Phase 3 adds a funded cashback loop. Phase 4 targets NEO-native economics including deposit and voting mechanics, though this stage remains further out.

AgentPay N3 enters a growing category of blockchain-based agent payment infrastructure. Multiple projects launched similar solutions on other chains in 2026, including Alchemy’s AgentPay on several EVM networks and other implementations on Base. NeoIgnite’s version is positioned as Neo’s native implementation, using $GAS for settlement rather than bridged or wrapped assets.
