AutopayOS Documentation
AutopayOS is a secure payment authorization platform that enables AI agents to make autonomous purchases within policy-defined constraints. Built on Google's Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), it provides verifiable credentials, cryptographic evidence chains, and enterprise-grade policy controls.

| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Policy-driven authorization | Define spending limits, merchant allowlists, velocity controls, and time windows |
| Cryptographic audit trail | Every transaction produces tamper-evident evidence with hash chaining |
| Multi-rail payments | Route payments through Stripe, Visa IC, or custom rails |
| Human presence verification | WebAuthn/FIDO2 integration for high-value transactions |
| A2A Protocol | Agent-to-Agent communication following Google AP2 specification |

└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
1. Intent — Agent requests permission to shop with budget constraints
2. Cart — Merchant cart is verified against the intent and policy
3. Payment — Payment mandate is issued and executed through a payment rail
Every step is cryptographically signed and stored in the evidence chain.
