American Express Releases Intent Intelligence Framework for AI Transactions
What happened
American Express published its Intent Intelligence framework, which details how to capture and authenticate a customer’s purchase intent before an AI agent completes a transaction. This framework preserves the intent as a control throughout the transaction lifecycle and is available through the Amex Agentic Commerce Experiences (ACE) Developer Kit.

Why it matters
The framework seeks to advance a common industry approach for intent in agentic commerce. By making the customer’s authorized purchase intent available earlier in the transaction lifecycle, American Express aims to help issuers proactively manage risk and ensure the resulting purchase aligns with customer approval.
