Agent Card solves a critical but unglamorous problem in agentic AI: how do you let an agent pay for things without handing it your real credit card? The answer is a prepaid virtual Visa wallet your agent can draw on — fund it via Stripe, then let your Claude Code, ChatGPT, or MCP agent generate single-use virtual cards that auto-cancel after one transaction. The mental model is clean: you set a budget, the agent has a card, you get receipts. The API is MCP-compatible so agents can call it directly without human intervention. Cards can be scoped to specific merchants, capped at specific dollar amounts, and auto-cancelled on a time limit. Full transaction logs are available via API for auditing. This is the missing financial primitive for truly autonomous agents. Until now, letting an agent "buy something" required awkward human-in-the-loop approvals or giving it a full credit card with no guardrails. Agent Card provides the guardrails. It's a small piece of infrastructure that unlocks a class of agent capabilities that were previously too risky to build.

ProofShot captures screenshots of running applications and feeds them back to AI coding agents as visual context. Instead of agents blindly writing UI code, they can now see what they built and iterate. Works with browser-based apps and integrates with popular AI coding tools.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the piece I've been waiting for. I build procurement agents and the payment step always requires human intervention. A merchant-scoped, dollar-capped virtual card with MCP support changes that completely. The 1.5% fee is trivially worth it for what it unlocks.”
“Clean integration — just point it at your dev server and it handles screenshot capture and context injection. The token cost of sending screenshots is non-trivial though, so you want to be selective about when you trigger it. Works best as a verification step, not continuous monitoring.”
“Giving an AI agent a payment method is exactly the kind of thing that sounds clever until an LLM hallucinates a purchase. One prompt injection attack on your agent could drain your wallet in seconds. The merchant scoping helps but I want to see real fraud cases before trusting this.”
“Vision models still struggle with subtle layout issues — off-by-one pixel gaps, wrong font weights, slightly misaligned elements. ProofShot catches the obvious breaks but do not expect pixel-perfect QA. You still need human eyes for production UI.”
“Autonomous economic agency is the unlock. When agents can independently buy compute, pay APIs, and procure services within budgets, the economics of automation shift dramatically. Agent Card is a tiny product solving a foundational problem for the agentic economy.”
“I use AI agents to buy stock photos, pay for API calls, and subscribe to tools. Managing all that manually is tedious. A scoped virtual card I can hand to an agent — with spending limits — is exactly the workflow I need.”
“As someone who has watched AI agents confidently ship broken layouts, this is a godsend. The visual feedback loop means agents can actually catch that the button is overlapping the nav bar. Design quality from AI coding just leveled up.”
