Track 01: AI Growth & Agentic Commerce
Grow the merchant’s revenue, and make them sellable to AI buyers.
Build an agent that grows revenue for a merchant on Razorpay test-mode APIs, or that makes a merchant transactable by an AI buyer end to end.
Why Now
NPCI’s UAP and the global protocol race (ACP, AP2, x402) make agent-to-agent commerce the open problem of the year, and Razorpay’s in-app pilots are already live.
Example Directions
- Conversational in-app checkout
- Agent-readable catalog
- Upsell & cross-sell agent
- Campaign orchestrator
The Bar
Every money action explainable, bounded and gated. Show the audit trail and one failure handled gracefully.
