Original Summary

I’m the founder of Authoryze, which lets AI agents make purchases under spending rules you set. The agent requests a purchase, your rules approve or deny it, and if approved it gets a single use card for that exact amount, so it never sees your real card. I’ve been building this for about five months and honestly I’ve heard fewer stories than I expected about people letting agents spend money. A few things I’ve noticed so far though. Most of the demand I’ve seen has come from outside the US. Someone from Brazil signed up trying to have his agent book airline tickets, and a lot of other early users were international too. The catch is that many non US cards still get rejected on the networks’ agent payment rails, so that’s been the biggest wall. The card networks are taking this seriously. Visa and Mastercard both have their own agent payment programs now, and they require the cardholder to approve with a passkey before an agent can spend. So there’s a real human approval step built in at the network level. Big platforms are moving too. Meta’s new agent Muse launched with Stripe Link as its checkout, which issues one time cards to the agent. That’s the same basic idea, which tells me single use cards are probably where this is heading. Teams have been more interested than individuals. Once one person’s agent can buy something, the next question is how to give it to the whole team without handing out the company card. So I’m curious what’s actually happening out there. Are your agents buying API credits, software, travel, or something else? And if you’re not letting them spend money yet, what’s stopping you? Is it trust, or just that the tools aren’t there yet?   submitted by   /u/kevinfee [link]   [comments]
