Transactable

Can an agent transact in Birmingham cafes and bars?

0 of 157 reachable sites expose a rail an agent could transact through. Measured, not scored.

A rail is a UCP profile, an ACP discovery document, an MCP server card, or an ordering vendor that takes orders placed by assistants (Square and Toast, and any vendor whose terms allow agents). Counted from the latest scan of each site; older scans were not measured. Methodology · vendor terms for agents.
