Riskified, a global leader in e-commerce fraud prevention, has partnered with cybersecurity firm HUMAN Security to create a unified security framework aimed at protecting merchants in the emerging era of AI-powered shopping agents. By combining Riskified’s fraud prevention expertise with HUMAN’s visibility and governance capabilities, the partnership seeks to give merchants greater control, security, and confidence when engaging with AI-driven commerce.
Although fully autonomous shopping agents are still gaining traction, consumers increasingly use large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama to research products, compare prices, and discover deals. While this shift opens new growth opportunities, it also introduces heightened risks — from false declines caused by missing behavioral signals to sophisticated fraud tactics like automated reseller arbitrage, where AI agents rapidly deplete inventory for resale at inflated prices.
Riskified’s data highlights the potential threats: LLM-referred traffic can be up to 2.3 times riskier in certain sectors than traditional search traffic. To address these challenges, Riskified is launching new tools, including AI Agent Approve for secure merchant–AI communication, AI Agent Intelligence dashboards to monitor AI-originated orders, and AI Agent Policy Builder to detect and prevent abuse such as promo exploitation and programmatic returns.

By integrating HUMAN’s recently launched Sightline featuring AgenticTrust with these tools, merchants can apply consistent trust policies across both human and AI transactions.
“In a world where AI agents transact on behalf of individuals, resolving identity and trust becomes more complex,” said Assaf Feldman, CTO and Co-Founder of Riskified. “By working with HUMAN and developing new agentic tools and capabilities, we give merchants a way to safely embrace this shift, turning what could be a threat into a new, profitable digital channel.”
The collaboration aims to help merchants approve more legitimate AI-driven purchases, block sophisticated fraud, and safeguard customer relationships, setting a standard for safe, scalable agentic commerce.
