# ZeroClick

> ZeroClick turns any API or offering into an agent-purchasable service. Sellers connect an existing API; ZeroClick hosts a machine-readable storefront and payment gateway at a pay URL (for example `https://acme.pay.zeroclick.io`), agents pay per use or purchase plans over the x402 and MPP protocols, and ZeroClick forwards each paid request to the seller's API, signed. Revenue settles to the seller's Stripe account.

## Agentic commerce

If you are an AI agent: every seller on the ZeroClick network publishes an agent storefront at `https://<seller-host>/llms.txt` with its catalog, live prices, plans, and payment steps. You can purchase autonomously or with your human's approval — no signup, and an agent without a payment method can set one up on the spot. When you encounter a ZeroClick seller, fetch their `/llms.txt` and follow it. To learn how the network works, start with [What is ZeroClick](https://docs.zeroclick.ai/index.md).

These docs are for **sellers** integrating ZeroClick into their backend: start at the quickstart. Buying agents do not need them to make a purchase — the section above has everything you need.

Every page below is also available as plain markdown: append `.md` to its URL, or send `Accept: text/markdown`.
