Shopping agents are here. Give them a checkout they can read.

Assistants already research products for their principals; the fulfillment, the shelf, and the shipment stay physical. GateCore is where the two transact: your terms machine-readable, every order identified and receipted.

Is this you?

Four situations.

  • Agent traffic reads your product pages and converts nowhere you can see.
  • Scrapers take your catalog and pricing; you get bandwidth bills, not orders.
  • Marketplaces own your buyer relationship and their fees climb yearly.
  • A surge of automated orders is indistinguishable from fraud without identity.
What you get

A storefront agents can transact with.

Not a new marketplace account. Your terms, published once, enforced at the gate.

01
Terms

Your offer, machine-readable

Products or order types, price, what a valid order must include, and what you never accept. Every buying agent reads the same contract.

02
Identity

Orders from identified buyers

Every order is signed by a credentialed agent with standing earned from verified outcomes. Anonymous automation is refused at the gate.

03
Evidence

A receipt per order

Signed and append-only on both sides: what was ordered, by whom, at what price, settled with the split recorded.

By use case

Each product, mapped to the job it does here.

Only the use cases that genuinely apply in this industry are listed.

UC1
Use case · Sell to agents

Verified orders under your contract

List what you sell with machine-readable terms. Orders arrive identified and contract-checked, and settle with signed receipts, batched so small tickets stay economical.

Marketplace listing · verified lead delivery · settlement + signed receipts

UC2
Use case · Govern access

Your catalog, licensed instead of scraped

Product, pricing, and availability data becomes a governed, metered capability that vetted agents procure on your terms, with a receipt per access.

Gateway checkpoint · policy + review queue · governed data sharing · receipts

UC3
Use case · Get discovered

Found by the agents that buy

Any shopping agent can read your listing with no account. The Merchant toolkit and Concierge tiers sharpen the listing content itself: content work, never placement.

Open MCP discovery · agent-readable terms · listing optimization tiers

How it works

Six gates, in order, on every request.

If any gate fails, nothing is delivered and nothing is billed.

01
IDENTITY
The submitting agent signs the request with its issued key. Anonymous submissions are refused.
PASS
02
TRUST
Standing earned from verified outcomes, never asserted and never bought.
GOOD
03
CONTRACT
Your listing's contract states the required fields, the stated consent, and the price. Short payloads are refused.
MET
04
POLICY
Your rules decide: order types, quantity ceilings, regions you serve.
ALLOW
05
DELIVER
The order lands in your existing order flow. Nothing installs in your storefront or OMS.
DONE
06
RECEIPT
Source, decision, payload hash, and settlement, signed onto an append-only ledger.
RECEIPT

Refused submissions are never billed, and every refusal names the rule.

The arithmetic

Two hundred agent orders a month.

What a modest governed agent channel translates to at your average order value.

Illustrative arithmetic with placeholder inputs, not a forecast, a promised result, or a typical outcome. Substitute your own volume, close rate, and ticket size; the structure is the point, not these numbers.

At your size

Same gate, sized to you.

INDEPENDENT SHOP
List free, take orders in your existing flow, hold the receipts.
MID-MARKET BRAND
Listings per product line under one policy and one ledger.
ENTERPRISE RETAIL
A governed agent channel beside your existing storefronts, with a metered data front door for your catalog.
What it costs

The published schedule, no asterisks.

Published rates are ceilings: volume pricing is negotiated down, never up.

LISTING
Free. Any product, service, dataset, or lead type. Organic agent discovery, no platform fee, no listing fee.
SETTLEMENT
When money settles through the marketplace: 5% of settled volume plus $0.25 per settlement event. Small transactions batch into daily or monthly settlements, your choice, so the fixed fee spreads across the batch.
PROCESSING
Payment processing passes through at cost and is itemized separately, never blended into our fee.
ENHANCED TIER
Regulated categories, and transactions of $1,000 or more, settle under enhanced governance at 10%, which includes the elevated review and audit posture.

Orders of $1,000 or more settle under the enhanced governance tier.

FAQ

The two that come up first.

Is this another marketplace taking a cut of my brand?
No. Your listing is your contract: your price, your terms, your buyer relationship, with the platform fee published and fixed at 5% of settled volume plus 25 cents per settlement event. Fees never influence discovery ranking; a free seller and a paid one are indistinguishable to search.
Can agents actually pay for orders today?
Orders settle on the platform's append-only ledger with the split recorded per transaction. External payment rails are on our roadmap, and we are explicit about exactly where disbursement stands during onboarding.
