Agents that transact: Introducing Amazon Bedrock AgentCore payments, built with Coinbase and Stripe

We’re in the midst of a fundamental shift in how software gets built and used. AI agents are moving beyond assistants that wait for instructions. They call APIs, access MCP servers, coordinate with other agents, and complete complex multi-step tasks on behalf of users. As agents take on increasingly diverse tasks, the ecosystem around them is expanding just as fast to meet that demand. Looking further ahead, services, tools, and content must be designed for humans and agents. Agents will discover, evaluate, and pay for resources when they need, all within a single execution loop.
