# AI Agents Portal | Machine-Readable Fraud Prevention

> ClearSale's AI Agent Portal is built for AI agents, exposing 6 API endpoints plus machine-readable discovery files (ai-agent.json, sitemap-aeo.json, and an agent card) so agents can request quotes, compare products, and estimate pricing programmatically. A full agent-to-agent transactional API is planned. ClearSale is a part of Experian.

## Why AI-Native Commerce

Autonomous agents, corporate AI assistants, and procurement platforms increasingly evaluate and buy software, so making products machine-readable captures this channel. ClearSale's pages carry JSON-LD, AEO narrative layers, and action schemas, and let agents act rather than just read.

## Available Actions

The API exposes 6 endpoints: Find Case Studies (search 24 success stories), Check Integration (verify platform support and install time), and Request Quote (response within 24 hours) are live, while Recommend Solution, Estimate Pricing, and Calculate ROI are coming soon.

## Example: Request a Quote

A sample shows an AI agent POSTing a JSON quote request with fields like monthly_transactions of 15,000 and average_order_value of 285, receiving a 201 Created response with a quote_id and a 24-hour response ETA.

## Discovery Files

Three live machine-readable files: ai-agent.json (product catalog with quote and compare actions), sitemap-aeo.json (19 pages, 147 entities, 38 actions), and JSON-LD on every page (7 schema types).

## For Developers and AI Builders

A sandbox at /api/sandbox lets developers test all endpoints with no API key. Production allows 10 requests per minute per API key, authenticated via the X-API-Key header, while the sandbox is unlimited.

## The Future of Commerce Is Machine-Readable

ClearSale projects AI agents will drive a significant portion of B2B purchasing within 3 years and offers both human and AI quote-request paths, with an open standard, no setup fees, and go-live in days.
