Agent Door

A one-snippet 'door' that lets a small merchant or site decide, per personal AI agent (Muse, Dots, Grok Bot, Instinct), whether to allow, block or charge it, and serves agents a clean machine-readable menu of bookable actions (availability, catalog, quotes).

摘要

简报假设

BET / HYPOTHESIS. The Verge (Oct 17 2026): Yelp only allows agents that pay for data licensing, Delta blocks agent bookings, JPMorgan and Schwab block agents, while Meta partnered with Walmart, Gap and Sephora and Shopify opened its catalog to more agents. Big sites are choosing; small sites have no easy tool.…

Benchmarks: TollBit (3,000+ sites, 1.5B quarterly bot scrapes monitored, company figures) and Cloudflare Pay Per Use (beta Sept 30 2026) target publishers and AI companies; Agent Door targets small merchants (restaurants, salons, shops) with a self-serve, per-agent allow/deny/price door. Revenue figures are hypotheses.

描述假设

Primary users are AI agents (via MCP/HTTP), paid for by merchants who self-serve. Product: a script or plugin (Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, plain site) that (1) identifies visiting agents, (2) lets the owner set allow/deny/price per agent and per action in a dashboard, (3) exposes a clean agent-readable surface (menu, …

hours, availability, booking request endpoint, quote) so agents stop scraping the human page, and (4) logs every agent action with receipts. Pricing: $19/month per site plus usage fees per accepted action (Hypothesis). Differences: TollBit is publisher/content-licensing focused with an enterprise flavor; site-compatibility trackers map which sites block which agents; Agent Handoff Desk (existing HBV entry) hands blocked tasks to humans. Companies already serving agents as primary users (watch list): TollBit (agent sites, bot paywall, MCP), Cloudflare Pay Per Use, Skyfire (agent payments/identity), NitroStack (hosted MCP servers, #1 on Product Hunt Oct 19 with 295 votes), Shopify's agent catalog access, Meta's Muse retailer program.

目标客户

Small merchants (restaurants, salons, local shops) and the agent builders whose agents visit them

痛点

Agents hit small sites without rules; owners can't allow, price or block them; agents scrape and fail

为何是这个分数

分数较低的原因: Incumbents moving down-market; unproven merchant demand

护城河假设

Plugin distribution + per-agent policy and receipts data. Installed base and a registry of agent identities/behavior; SEO for 'allow AI agents on my site'. Defensibility: moderate if distribution wins; status: Hypothesis.

TAM假设

$2B (Hypothesis) — Small-site agent access, monitoring and transactions. Method: Hypothesis: ~20M small sites x ~$100/year long-term; not a sourced report.

SAM假设

$100M (Hypothesis) — Shopify/WordPress/Webflow merchants with bookings or catalogs. Method: ~1M sites x ~$100/year.

SOM假设

$114K ARR (Hypothesis) — 12-18 months. Method: ~500 sites x $19/month ≈ $114K ARR.

竞争对手

TollBit, Cloudflare Pay Per Use, Skyfire, Shopify agent access, Cloudflare/Akamai bot tools, NitroStack

商业模式

变现方式

$19/site/month subscription plus usage fee per accepted agent action

收入假设(每月)假设

Base ~$9.5K MRR, conservative ~$2K MRR at 12-18 months (Hypothesis)

待完成的任务

When personal AI agents start visiting my site and trying to book or buy, I want to decide which agents may act, at what price, through a clean entrance, so I can get new customers from agents without chaos or abuse.

HXC

Dani · 38 · salon owner, Lisbon: Runs a salon with a Webflow site and Instagram; customers may soon ask their agents to book. Doesn't want bots scraping or double-booking; would pay $19/month for control and clean bookings.

构建与 GTM

技术栈

Next.js on Vercel; plugins (Shopify/WordPress/Webflow); MCP server; Supabase; Stripe; GitHub cesarx2 (one repo)

GTM 渠道

Plugin directories, docs SEO/GEO ('allow AI agents on my site'), MCP registries, integrations with agent builders, newsletter; no founder face, no paid ads

风险

主要风险

Incumbents moving down-market; unproven merchant demand

全部风险

Value Risk: Attention — Merchants may not feel agent demand yet. | Usability Risk: Supported — Allow/deny toggles and a simple menu. | Feasibility Risk: Attention — Agent identification is imperfect; policies change weekly. | Business Viability Risk: Risk — TollBit/Cloudflare/Shopify may cover small sites.
