Receipt provides an OAuth‑style authorization layer for software agents that move money, allowing developers to define precise policies, spend caps, and approval requirements before any transaction is executed. The platform enforces these rules, settles approved payments, and returns a portable, cryptographically signed Open Receipt that can be independently verified as proof of the transaction. It also offers on‑demand agent capabilities such as web search, content extraction, screenshot capture, and email handling, each recorded with signed evidence.

Problem
Software agents that initiate financial transactions often lack a standardized way to obtain authorization, enforce spending limits, and provide verifiable proof of each action. Without such controls, businesses face risks of unauthorized spending, compliance gaps, and difficulty reconciling transactions across different payment rails.
Solution
Receipt offers an OAuth‑style framework that grants agents explicit authority to move money while enforcing configurable policies such as spend caps and approval requirements. Before execution, the platform evaluates the connected application, current authority, price, and transaction terms, then settles the authorized amount only after successful delivery, releasing any reservation on failure. Upon completion, Receipt returns a portable, cryptographically signed Open Receipt that contains commercial facts and verification links that can be independently validated across payment networks. In addition, Receipt provides on‑demand agent capabilities—including web search, content extraction, screenshot capture, page publishing, email handling, and AI‑driven phone calls—each logged with a signed receipt, enabling developers to extend agent functionality without sacrificing auditability.
Target Audience
Primary customers are fintech platforms, marketplaces, and SaaS providers that delegate financial actions to software agents and need enforceable policy controls and auditable proof of each transaction.
