What Perplexity actually said

An answer that names the company

Perplexitynamed the company

“Best solutions for real-time international payments outside of legacy interbank systems?”

The best alternatives to legacy correspondent-bank/SWIFT flows are payment platforms that connect directly to domestic real-time rails, regulated stablecoin settlement, and— for institutions—tokenized deposits or shared-ledger networks. The right choice depends on whether the recipient needs fiat in a bank account, wallet settlement, or treasury liquidity.

Ready for AI agents

  6. 5

Level 1: Basic web presence. Two of robots.txt, a sitemap and Link headers are in place.

To reach level 2:
  • Content Signals

The website turns away requests that do not come from a browser. AI agents that say what they are meet the same refusal.

Can an AI agent check out here?

Not by itself. SWIFT publishes none of the agent payment protocols we look for. An agent would have to click through the website like a person.
