Commerce infrastructure

Agent Commerce

Services that agents can buy

Make selected digital services payable per call. Agent Commerce combines payment-gated APIs, execution and metering so a machine purchase has a clear price and a useful result.

The starting point

What needs to change.

  • An AI agent can discover a service but still needs a way to understand its price, pay for it and receive a machine-readable result.

  • Usage metering, payment verification and service execution need to agree on what the buyer purchased.

What we deliver

From opportunity to working systems.

01

Payment-gated APIs

A request receives payment requirements before paid execution. The service verifies settlement and returns the purchased artifact.

02

Useful API editions

The Vela product line includes API editions for answer-engine optimisation, governed assistance, recommendation ranking, commerce feed validation and URL scanning.

03

Metering and receipts

Tie a completed paid call to its usage record and receipt. Published internal settlement examples demonstrate the operating pattern.
