Amex introduces Intent Intelligence Framework to verify AI agent purchases
Overview
American Express introduces the Intent Intelligence Framework, which records and authenticates a customer's purchase instructions before an AI agent completes a transaction.
The framework starts with a Create Intent API that captures the merchant, maximum budget and product preferences, then issues an Intent ID and a Proof of Intent Token that replaces the card number at checkout.
Amex says it has not yet seen an increase in agentic commerce disputes. The company plans to build the framework into its ACE Developer Toolkit.
