Agent Commerce · Pricing
Pay for outcomes, not attempts
You are billed only when an AI agent request clears policy, executes on a payment rail, and is issued as a signed receipt. Quote attempts and blocked authorizations are never charged.

What is a billable receipt?
Agent Commerce operates on a receipt-based billing model. Not every API call is a billable event. A receipt is counted against your quota only when the full authorization-execution-attestation cycle completes successfully.
Authorization passes policy
The policy engine evaluates rail, currency, amount, merchant, purpose, and velocity constraints. If any rule fails, the request is blocked and nothing is charged.
Transaction executes on rail
The payment is dispatched to the execution rail (Stripe is the active rail). A transaction record is created and the payment status is tracked to completion.
Signed receipt is issued
A payment_receipt.v1 artifact is created, canonicalized via RFC 8785, SHA-256 hashed, and signed with Ed25519. Only at this point is the receipt counted against your plan quota.
Quote attempts, authorization checks, and blocked requests are logged for audit purposes but are never billed.
Frequently asked questions
What counts as a billable receipt?
A receipt is billable only when all three conditions are met: (1) an authorization record exists confirming the request passed policy, (2) a transaction record exists confirming execution on the payment rail, and (3) a signed receipt artifact was issued. Quote attempts and blocked authorizations never count — you are billed for outcomes, not attempts.
What happens if an agent request is blocked by policy?
Blocked requests do not generate a receipt and are never billed. The policy engine returns a blocked status with a reason code. The decision is logged for audit purposes but incurs no receipt charge.
Can I cancel my subscription at any time?
Yes. All paid plans are month-to-month. If you cancel, your plan stays active through the end of the current billing period. No prorated refunds for mid-cycle cancellations, but no locked-in contracts either.
What happens when I exceed my included receipts?
Overages are billed per receipt: $0.02 on Build, $0.015 on Trust, $0.01 on Govern. Overage charges appear on your next monthly invoice. There is no hard cap — your agents stay operational through burst traffic.
Is the sandbox really free forever?
Yes. The free account sandbox includes 100 receipts per month with no credit card required. It is intentionally limited — no signed receipts, no audit lineage — so that production deployments require an upgrade. The sandbox is for integration testing and proof-of-concept work.
How is Agent Commerce pricing different from CertifiedData dataset certification pricing?
They are separate products with separate billing. Agent Commerce pricing covers AI agent payment workflows — policy evaluation, transaction execution on rails such as Stripe, and Ed25519-signed receipt issuance. Dataset certification pricing (at /pricing) covers synthetic data generation, certification artifacts, and AI artifact verification. You can use one or both independently.
