The shift

Soon an agent will check out for someone else. What stops it buying 200 tickets when it was told 2?

Alyte is the agentic commerce orchestrator and trust layer between AI agents and a merchant's own checkout. It makes an autonomous purchase safe: mandate-bound, oversell-proof, and price-locked. The money settles to the merchant's own PSP. It never touches the money.

On-sale rush

250 agents. 100 seats. Oversold: 0.

Proven by construction. One atomic hold, not a hopeful check.

Why now

Commerce is moving into the conversation. The infrastructure underneath it hasn't caught up.

AI agents are becoming where people discover, decide and buy. But agents were built to talk, not to transact. The moment a buyer is ready, the agent hands them to a checkout somewhere else. The new risk for a merchant isn't price. It's being invisible when the agent decides, and unsafe when it buys.

One neutral layer between the agents and the money. The agent proposes; Alyte disposes. Every purchase clears server-side checks it cannot talk past, and the money settles to the merchant's own PSP, exactly as it does today.

The gauntlet

Three checks, one owner each.

Each purchase runs a gauntlet. It is refused by exactly one owner, for a reason that owner controls.

Where this is going

Day 1: safe agentic checkout for live-events ticketing. Month 12: the full agentic-commerce stack for any agent, any PSP, any merchant. EU-first, global-bound.

FAQ

Agentic commerce, answered plainly.

What is agentic commerce?

Agentic commerce is AI agents discovering, deciding, and completing purchases on a person's behalf, rather than just recommending and handing off to a human checkout.

How do AI agents pay merchants through Alyte?

An agent transacts under a scoped, revocable spend mandate. Alyte enforces that mandate server-side across three checks (agent authentication, merchant inventory reservation, PSP confirmation), then the merchant's own PSP settles the charge to the merchant's own account.

What stops an AI agent from overbuying or overspending?

The spend cap and scope are enforced server-side from the agent record, never read from the prompt or the token, so a prompt-injected or misbehaving agent cannot raise its own limit. Inventory holds are one atomic database operation, so oversell is impossible by construction, not just checked for.

Does Alyte hold funds?

No. Money moves merchant to the merchant's own PSP to the cardholder. Alyte only moves instructions and tokenized references, and invoices its fee separately, never netted from funds in transit.

Which agentic commerce protocols does Alyte work with?

Alyte is protocol-neutral: it consumes and enforces scheme attestation standards including Visa Trusted Agent Protocol (TAP), Mastercard Agent Pay, and Verifiable Intent, at the point of reservation, across any agent including bring-your-own-agent (BYOA).

See a mandated agent buy a real ticket, and get refused when it tries to overreach.
