Can an AI agent buy from Openai?

0/100

An assistant stops at: the gate — the site refused an agent-style request, so nothing could be measured

Verdict: unmeasured — 1 failing check out of 1 we run.

The six gates, as an agent walks them

Gate	Result	Evidence
discover it	also fails
read the catalog	also fails
get past robots.txt	also fails
find a machine price	also fails
buy without a human	also fails
pay as a machine	also fails

Nothing to fix

This surface passed every check we run.

Why this matters

We audited 206 companies the way an assistant reads them. None can accept payment from a machine, and this one is no exception: the documentation checks are widely passed, the payment checks are almost universally failed. Discovery earns nothing on its own — the money is in the last gate.

For the record

We read only public surfaces: llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap.xml, schema.org markup, /.well-known/*, the pricing page, and an HTTP 402 probe.
No credentials, no internal access, no scraping tricks. Reproduce it yourself: node audit.js openai.com.
