CheckoutPolicy — Merchant Guardrails & Audit OS for Agentic Commerce

The Problem

Agentic commerce is often framed as a discovery problem: how do I get my products surfaced by AI?

That was the first wedge. It is no longer the only one.

Once agents can actually transact, merchants need a control plane for questions like:

• which products can an agent sell without human review?
• which discounts, bundles, or substitutions are allowed?
• how should out-of-stock, delayed-fulfilment, or age-restricted items be handled?
• what evidence is stored if an agent initiates a disputed order?
• which channels, geographies, and agent partners are approved?

Today, those rules are scattered across ecommerce admin settings, legal docs, fraud tools, payment processors, and internal SOPs. That is not good enough when transactions become programmable.
