Stripe x HitPay x Bretton: Agentic Commerce Demo Night
βDemo Night (SF) β Stripe x HitPay x Bretton π€
βJoin founders, engineers, and product builders for a night of demos, ideas, and conversations at the frontier of AI Γ payments.
βPizza, drinks and limited edition swag will be provided! ππΉ
βLimited slots available
βHitPay (YC S21) has teamed up with Stripe to offer businesses access to cross-border payment methods across Southeast Asia and broader APAC - think local QRs and E-wallets that are more price competitive and familiar alternatives to cards for reaching your customers globally.
βTogether with Stripe's MPP Crypto Team, this will be a demo night covering two frontiers: AI-native agentic commerce and going global with payment methods your users actually use.
βKindly hosted by Bretton AI (YC S23), which builds AI agents to help banks and fintechs automate financial crime compliance - from AML to KYC and beyond.
βStart building. The people who built the rails will be in the room.
