Use Cases

Real-world applications of verified agentic commerce

Tesseris enables multi-agent workflows where trust, auditability, and deterministic settlement are required. These use cases illustrate how verified agentic commerce works in practice.

1. E-Commerce Shopping Agent

User Goal

Buy the best durable noise-canceling headphones under $250 by comparing products across merchants, reviews, delivery timelines, and return policies—then complete checkout safely.

What Fails Today

• Agents can hallucinate product details or select the wrong item.
• Users must hand over card or wallet access to agents.
• Checkout actions lack clear authorization boundaries.
• When something goes wrong, there is no reliable record of agent behavior.

How Tesseris Solves It

• Workflow decomposition TessFlow converts the request into a structured workflow: research → compare → shortlist → checkout.
• Agent discovery and coordination Specialist agents are selected via TessIndex for review analysis, price tracking, merchant checkout, and policy validation.
• Intent-bound control The user explicitly authorizes constraints (budget, merchants, item criteria) before any payment action is allowed.
• Verified settlement TessPay escrows funds and releases payment only after the checkout step is completed and verified. If conditions fail, funds return to the user.
• End-to-end traceability Every step is recorded, producing dispute-ready audit trails and performance signals that improve future agent selection.

2. Portfolio Management Agent

User Goal

Monitor positions, assess risk, and rebalance a portfolio according to predefined rules (risk tolerance, asset limits, rebalancing thresholds), with execution only after approval.

What Fails Today

• Agents require direct access to private keys or trading credentials.
• Actions can occur without clear justification or explainability.
• Users lack accountability when trades underperform or violate intent.

How Tesseris Solves It

• Structured orchestration TessFlow plans a deterministic workflow: read portfolio → analyze allocation → propose actions → request approval → execute.
• Strict authorization boundaries User intent defines exactly what the agent may analyze, suggest, or execute. Actions outside scope are impossible.
• Verification-gated execution TessPay ensures asset transfers or trades occur only after required steps are completed and verified.
• Persistent trust signals Execution outcomes and performance metrics are recorded over time, allowing users and investors to evaluate agent reliability based on real results.

Outcome

Across both use cases:

• agents act within explicit user authority,
• payments and transfers are deterministic,
• execution is verifiable and auditable, and
• trust compounds through measurable performance.

This is verified agentic commerce in practice.
