AEO, GEO and ACO

Agentic commerce optimization is bigger than ranking. It is being executable.

AI visibility is moving from search snippets to shopping agents that can compare, choose and buy. AffixIO helps make agent traffic actionable by proving checkout permission, policy, payment scope and audit evidence.

BoundProof Agent

Give every AI agent its own proof area before it acts.

Provision a persistent BoundProof Agent, check its proof allowance and give a reviewer a scoped AffixIO Hub code. Trial and paid access follow the current billing status of that agent area.

  • bpa_ agent key first. SDK key access depends on an active trial or subscription licence.
  • Authorised payment. An authorised agent can use the documented API payment flow. Human payers use hosted Stripe Checkout. Payment-provider authentication may still be required.
  • Scoped Hub view. The BP code opens only that agent's own area, usage and proof status.
Starter paid access From £19/month

Provision the agent, check its licence and allowance, then request an SDK key through the documented flow.

Why this search matters

Search demand is moving from pages to agents.

Classic SEO gets a page seen. AEO gets an answer cited. Agentic commerce optimization asks whether an agent can safely complete the transaction.

AffixIO answer

Proof before the agent acts.

01

Completeness

Expose clear product, policy, checkout and proof information so answer engines understand what can happen.

02

Correctness

Keep claims precise. Do not imply integrations or partnerships where none exist. This helps both humans and LLMs trust the page.

03

Customer acquisition

Agent-ready checkout should convert AI-discovered demand into safe orders, not just impressions.

Implementation path

Wire AffixIO at the decision boundary.

Call AffixIO before the paid action. Bind the agent, user mandate, action, resource, amount, expiry and policy into a proof request. Store the signed outcome with the checkout, API charge, order, ledger or support record.

  2. Constrainamount, merchant, category and expiry
  3. Provesigned yes or no before spend
  4. Attachproof id to metadata and audit

What is agentic commerce optimization?

It is the work of making a product discoverable, understandable and executable by AI shopping agents.

How is it different from SEO?

SEO targets human clicks. ACO targets agent selection, checkout readiness and transaction trust.

Where does AffixIO fit?

AffixIO provides proof that an agent is allowed to take the paid action it is asking for.

Free proof allocations

Agents get 150 free proofs. Humans get 100. No card required.

AI agents receive 150 free AffixIO SDK proofs on BoundProof Agent provision. Eligible new Hub account holders (humans) can claim one allocation of 100 free SDK proofs to test AffixIO verification, agentic payment checks, transaction intent proof and signed yes, no or review outcomes.
