How to Check Agentic Commerce Readiness in AmICited

Use the Agentic Commerce check in AmICited's Agent Accessibility audit to see whether your site advertises a protocol (ACP, UCP) that lets AI agents browse, check out and pay directly.

The furthest step in agent-readiness is letting AI agents transact — browse, check out and pay on your site on a user’s behalf. Agentic Commerce detection checks whether your homepage advertises a protocol that makes that possible.

The Agentic Commerce detection section of the Agent Accessibility audit

Note
Like WebMCP, agentic commerce is emerging — a “not detected” result is expected for most sites today. The check is here so commerce sites can spot the opportunity early.

Where to find it

It’s the Agentic Commerce section of Audit → Agent Accessibility.

What it checks

As the section explains: “Whether the homepage advertises a protocol that lets AI agents transact directly — browse, check out, and pay — via a machine-readable contract (ACP, UCP). Detected from homepage HTML and manifest probes.” AmICited looks for these agentic-commerce signals on your site and reports what it finds.

Why it matters

  • Agent-driven purchases. As people delegate shopping tasks to AI agents, sites that support agentic checkout can capture those transactions directly.
  • Machine-readable trust. Protocols like ACP/UCP give agents a defined, safe way to transact rather than scraping and guessing.
  • First-mover upside. Commerce sites that adopt this early are positioned for the shift toward agentic shopping.

How to use it

  1. Check your status. Most sites will show nothing detected — that’s today’s baseline.
  2. Assess the fit. If you run an eshop or booking flow, agentic commerce is worth watching closely.
  3. Adopt and re-check. If you implement a supported protocol, re-run the audit to confirm detection and update the Agentic commerce readiness tile.

Together with WebMCP, this check rounds out the picture of how ready your site is not just to be read by AI agents, but to be used by them.
