Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 34 stories with headroom
What would move Adyen’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.
Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productDelegate tasks to a built-in AI assistant inside the product
nonemoves Built-in AIimpact 45
Adyen documents an MCP server (for external LLM clients to call Adyen's APIs) and 'Uplift' (automated AI-driven payment optimization), but no evidence of a built-in AI assistant/copilot inside the Adyen product itself that a user can converse with or delegate tasks to interactively.
Disputes fraud — stories about disputes fraud in this arenaHave an agent handle a dispute end-to-end, retrieving it, assembling evidence, and submitting the response via the API
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
The evidence pack contains no mention of a Disputes API, chargeback evidence submission, or any agent/MCP workflow for handling disputes end-to-end—only risk/fraud detection (Protect), refusal reasons, and unrelated agentic-commerce checkout flows are documented.
Billing invoicing — stories about billing invoicing in this arenaHave an agent provision a new product, price, and payment link via the API in a single session
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Missing: evidence of a Products/Prices API or equivalent billing object model, evidence of a single-session workflow that creates a product+price+payment link together, any documentation of provisioning billing entities (not just payment links) via API or MCP.
Payouts reconciliation — stories about payouts reconciliation in this arenaHave an agent pull payout and balance-transaction data via the API and reconcile each bank deposit to its underlying charges
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Missing: documented Balance/Transaction API endpoints, evidence of agent/MCP access to payout reconciliation data, and any reconciliation workflow example.
Global currency tax — stories about global currency tax in this arenaCalculate and collect the correct sales tax, VAT, or GST on every transaction automatically
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Adyen's evidence pack is entirely about payment processing, payouts, platforms, risk management, and agentic-commerce integrations — nothing addresses tax calculation, VAT/GST determination, tax collection, or tax compliance/remittance features.
Openness — open source, data portability, and self-hosting storiesExport all of my data in open formats and leave
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
The evidence pack shows reporting dashboards and general documentation transparency (llms.txt, markdown docs, OpenAPI specs) but nothing about a merchant being able to export their own transactional/account data in open formats or close their account and leave without lock-in.
Billing invoicing — stories about billing invoicing in this arenaSet up recurring subscription billing with plans, trials, upgrades, and proration
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Adyen's evidence pack covers payments, payouts, platforms, risk, reporting, and agentic commerce, but there is no mention of subscription/recurring billing constructs like plans, trial periods, upgrades/downgrades, or proration—these are the domain of a billing/subscription-management layer (e.g.
Disputes fraud — stories about disputes fraud in this arenaRespond to a chargeback with structured evidence and track the dispute lifecycle to resolution
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
The evidence pack covers Adyen's risk/fraud tooling (Protect, rule builder, ML fraud detection) but contains no documentation of a chargeback/dispute management API, structured evidence submission, or dispute lifecycle tracking/status workflow.
