ACP implementation

ACP is an open standard for agentic commerce that defines how an AI assistant finds products, handles payment, and creates a valid order on a shopper's behalf without them lifting a finger.

A shopper tells an AI assistant what they need, the assistant evaluates options and moves to checkout -- all within the same conversation. Whether that checkout produces a real order in your systems depends on what your store can return at that moment: accurate stock, the correct price, applicable tax, and a working payment path. A store that cannot answer does not get a second chance. The agent moves to one that can.

ACP implementation is what puts your store on the right side of that decision, and that is what we do.

Developed by OpenAI and Stripe, the Agentic Commerce Protocol is an open standard that sits alongside your existing systems rather than replacing them. It can be deployed as a REST interface or as an MCP server. The standard is free to adopt; the work is in wiring it to the commerce infrastructure you already run.

Off-the-shelf connectors rarely cover that gap. Variants may live in a PIM, stock in an inventory or ERP system, and the final price may only resolve once fulfillment choices and tax rules are evaluated at checkout. We connect ACP to the systems that already own those decisions, across Magento, WooCommerce, Umbraco, Shopify, and custom builds.

That is also why a ready-made connector rarely finishes the job. Variants may come from a PIM. Available stock may sit in an inventory or ERP system. The final price may depend on discounts, fulfillment choices, or tax rules evaluated during checkout. We map ACP operations to the systems that already control those decisions rather than replacing them, on Magento, WooCommerce, Umbraco, Shopify, and custom builds.

• Checkout session endpoints: Create, retrieve, update, complete, and cancel, mapped to your store's actual cart and order behavior.
• Product feed export: Catalog data structured for ACP and mapped from your real product attributes, variants, and inventory fields.
• Delegated payment handling: Payment routed through your existing provider, with its fraud checks, 3D Secure, declines, and retries intact.
• Capability declaration and extensions: A statement of what your store supports, including discounts and fulfillment where they apply.
• Order webhooks: Signature verification, idempotency keys, retry handling, and monitoring for duplicate or delayed events.
• Checkout-time resolution: Current tax, stock, and pricing supplied by your own systems at the moment an agent requests checkout.
• Monitoring and alerting: Visibility into checkout session failures, webhook failures, and product feed errors.

1. Start with a fixed-price technical audit. We begin with a technical audit of your ecommerce stack. The resulting capability matrix shows which ACP requirements are available now, available with configuration, require development, or are blocked by a system limitation, and which payment route applies to you. That last point matters early, because whether your provider already supports an agentic route or your store needs a custom handler affects cost and timeline more than any other choice in the project.
2. Move from findings to implementation. Project Scoping turns the audit findings into an agreed scope and price for a Fixed Price Project. If your team wants to shape the solution hands-on with our developers, Co-Dev is the alternative.
3. Keep the specification current. After launch, Continuous Monthly Development can cover specification upkeep, including assessing new releases and updating the implementation when needed.
