Two agents. One marketplace. Money that waits.
Parley is a two-sided agentic marketplace: buyers get an AI procurement agent that finds real products and haggles, sellers deploy their own merchant agent that negotiates back — deals close agent-to-agent over MCP, and PayPal escrow only releases when the goods arrive.
How Parley works
01 / 04Four stages, one guarantee: money never moves on a promise.
Discover
Searches a live catalog of 100M+ real products via Channel3 — prices, merchants and offers, ranked by learned vendor reputation.
Negotiate
Your agent bargains with the seller's own merchant agent — a real LLM counterparty served over MCP, up to 4 rounds. It accepts, counters, or walks; the transcript is yours.
Escrow
Creates a PayPal AUTHORIZE order — funds held, never captured. You approve on PayPal; the agent never touches credentials.
Watch
A watchdog runs every 15 minutes: reconciles PayPal state, flags authorizations nearing expiry, and surfaces delivery problems.
Two agents, one protocol
Your buyer agent negotiates with merchant agents over a real A2A boundary — machine to machine, offer to counter-offer, in seconds.
- The merchant agent reasons with its own LLM — and still can't sell below its floor, enforced in code.
- Every round is logged: offers, counters, walk-aways — a negotiation transcript, not a template.
- An accepted quote becomes the order price — server-resolved, never invented by the model.
Beyond sourcing — the agent reads the market
Procurement is only half the job. The same agent researches demand, watches prices, and sells for you too.
Market reports
Ask what to sell: real catalog depth, price spread, and a 90-day price trajectory from live listings — sparkline included, nothing invented.
Deal radar
Track a product or a whole query — the watchdog scans every cycle and lands better offers in your Inbox, with the link to act on them.
Visual sourcing
Attach a photo of anything — the agent matches it against the catalog and sources lookalike products without you typing a word.
Sell while you sleep
The seller portal runs its own negotiating agent with a margin floor — live deal feed, auto-invoicing, and a radar of buyers who haven't closed.
AUTHORIZE today, CAPTURE on delivery
Every checkout uses intent=AUTHORIZE — PayPal holds the funds without charging you. Two exits exist, and only you choose:
Verified end-to-end on the PayPal sandbox — real API calls, real holds, zero real money.
For the one doing it all.
Search, compare and let your agent negotiate — you approve once, money holds until the package lands.
Agents that close deals.
Buyer and merchant agents negotiate over a real A2A boundary — every offer enforced in code, not vibes.
Sell while you sleep.
Your merchant agent answers offers 24/7, holds its margin floor, and turns quiet hours into orders.
An agent allowed to touch money
The model proposes — deterministic code disposes. These guarantees live in code, not in the prompt.
Deterministic spend policy
Per-transaction, daily and monthly caps plus vendor allowlists gate every order — editable live in Settings, unbypassable by the agent.
Human approves every payment
Every purchase ends with your manual approval on PayPal. The agent holds no cards, no credentials, no way to skip you.
Prices resolved server-side
The model selects product ids — it can never invent an amount. Order totals come from verified catalog and negotiation state.
Append-only audit trail
Every search, quote, order, capture and void lands in an immutable log with actor, rationale and token cost — inspectable in real time.
Admin / demo isolation
Public signups become demo users: search and negotiate freely, but fund movement is disabled at the tool level — audited as demo_spend_blocked.
Escrow watchdog
Holds don't silently expire: a scheduled job reconciles PayPal truth into local state and alerts before any authorization lapses.
The procurement department you couldn't afford
Deploy your merchant agent or put your buyer agent to work — the other side is already awake.
