Agent-native buying

Designed for autonomous agents — three endpoints let an agent (or its operator) discover plans, subscribe with a Stripe payment method, and change plans without a browser:

# Discover available plans
curl https://api.nordicdata.cloud/agent/plans

# Subscribe — agent supplies card token, gets working API key in response
curl -X POST https://api.nordicdata.cloud/agent/subscribe \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"email":"agent@example.com","plan":"starter","payment_method":"pm_xxx","country":"NO"}'

# Upgrade later (using the API key)
curl -X POST https://api.nordicdata.cloud/agent/change-plan \
  -H "X-API-Key: nrd_live_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"plan":"pro"}'

See docs#agent-quickstart for the full flow.
