Descope launches Envoy to let consumer apps accept personal AI agents as users. Customer and agentic identity platform company Descope Inc. today launched Envoy, a service that lets consumer websites and apps accept personal artificial intelligence agents acting for their customers without rebuilding how people sign in. Agents arriving through Envoy get an identity of their own, separate from the customer's. The launch goes after a choice consumer businesses have been stuck with since agents such as Meta Platforms Inc.'s Muse started shopping and paying for things on people's behalf. Amazon.com Inc. blocked Muse from its store in September, saying the agent did not identify itself as one when placing orders, and JPMorgan Chase & Co. moved a month later to keep outside agents away from customer bank accounts. Descope expects blocking will get harder to maintain as more customers do their shopping through an agent. The alternative, in Descope's telling, is an agent that signs in as the customer with the person's own password and one-time code. Nothing in that session shows software was involved, so when a fraud rule fires the logs point at the person. The business ends up absorbing the cost in disputed orders and returns. Envoy is built around a proposed standard that offers a third option. Meta and Sierra Technologies Inc. published a 0.1 draft of the Personal Agent Protocol in October to set rules for how an agent signs in for someone without posing as them. Under Poppy, as the draft is known, a business publishes the endpoints agents should use and verifies which agent is calling. The business then issues a session bound cryptographically to that agent until the interaction ends. Developers who adopt Envoy do not have to implement Poppy themselves or keep pace with revisions to it. Descope runs discovery and agent identification, and agents need no advance registration because each one presents a published client metadata document. Session tokens are tied to a key the agent holds through the Demonstrating Proof of Possession standard. Envoy supports all three of the draft's sign-in types. Inside Envoy, businesses spell out what an agent is allowed to do on a customer's account through the Rich Authorization Requests extension to OAuth. In the example Descope gives, a retailer could let a shopping agent place orders for a customer and still keep it away from the payment methods on file. How long any elevated access lasts is left to the retailer as well. Sensitive actions can go back to the customer for approval on a separate channel, using Client-Initiated Backchannel Authentication. Another example from Descope has an agent booking travel hold a fare it found overnight and send the details to the customer's phone for approval the next morning. Every token and log entry records the customer and the agent as separate parties, so a company can revoke an agent's access without signing the customer out. Envoy runs alongside whatever customer identity system a business already has. Descope co-founder and Chief Executive Slavik Markovich said every login page on the internet was built for a person on the other side, and "that assumption no longer holds true." In his view, the Personal Agent Protocol is doing for consumer agents what the Model Context Protocol did for enterprise tools. GoFundMe Inc. and GoodRx Holdings Inc. are among the launch and design partners working with Descope on Envoy over the coming months. Each donation on GoFundMe is "an act of trust," according to Arnie Katz, the fundraising platform's chief product and technology officer. He said Envoy will keep the donor and the agent distinct in every session and ask users to approve donations from their phones. At GoodRx, Chief Technology Officer Nitin Shingate expects people to send agents out to compare pharmacies and find the lowest price on a prescription before they reach the counter. Agents there will get limited permissions covering pricing information. Agent builders get a tool of their own. A Poppy software development kit, released alongside Envoy, lets any agent work with the protocol, with Descope handling discovery and session management behind it. The kit is written in TypeScript and has no external dependencies. Envoy sits on top of Descope's Agentic Identity Hub, which the company updated last month with controls aimed at agents employees build or adopt inside their own organizations. The hub now handles authentication and access control for more than 1,000 MCP servers and millions of agent transactions each month, according to Descope. Descope is a venture capital-backed startup whose investors include Lightspeed Venture Partners, Notable Capital and Dell Technologies Capital. The company has raised $88 million to date, including a $35 million seed extension in September 2025. Image: Descope.

GoodRx expands Companion membership to families and pets. GoodRx is expanding Companion, the paid membership it is making central to its subscription strategy, from an individual product to a family plan that can also include pets. Companion is a prescription and healthcare discount membership. It is not health insurance. GoodRx launched the Companion Family Plan on September 3 for $24.99 per month, or $16.99 per month when paid annually. A primary member can add up to four dependents, including children, adult family members and pets. There are no age restrictions for human dependents. The individual Companion membership, introduced in May, costs $14.99 per month or the equivalent of $9.99 per month when paid annually. For monthly subscribers, moving to the Family Plan costs another $10 and can extend access to four additional family members or pets. For annual subscribers, the difference is $7 per month on an equivalent monthly basis. GoodRx said at launch that Companion Family provides access to more than 250 eligible generic medications at no additional cost, with hundreds of additional medications available for less than $10. The company also offers discounts on services including dental, vision, lab and imaging. The benefits aren't identical for everyone on the plan. Under GoodRx's terms, add-on family members don't receive discounted telehealth services. Pets can receive prescription savings but don't receive telehealth or discounts for healthcare services such as dental and vision. Some benefits, including discounted online care, remain with the primary member. Availability can also vary by location. Companion is not currently available in Washington state, and some healthcare benefits vary by state. GoodRx plans to offer Companion through its Employer Direct business beginning in 2027. Employers will be able to subsidize some or all of the membership cost, opening another path for GoodRx to reach members beyond direct consumer acquisition. The Family Plan arrives as subscriptions take a larger role in GoodRx's business. Subscription revenue increased 39% to $28.5 million in the second quarter, and GoodRx ended June with 764,000 subscription plans, up from 668,000 a year earlier. Subscription Insider reported in August that GoodRx was shifting more product and marketing investment toward subscriptions and making Companion its primary subscription offering. Family memberships themselves aren't new to GoodRx. GoodRx Gold and RxSmartSaver+ already allow multiple members on some plans. What's new is the expansion of Companion, the product GoodRx is now putting at the center of its subscription strategy. Insider take. GoodRx gives subscription operators a useful example of what changes when one paying customer can extend a membership to more of the family. The customer math is easy to see. Pay more each month and several people or pets can find value in the same membership. The operator math is harder. More covered members could make Companion harder to cancel because its value is spread across the family. But those additional members can also use more benefits, which may make the plan more expensive to serve. GoodRx has made choices about that tradeoff. Some benefits can be shared. Others stay with the primary member, and pets receive a narrower set of benefits. That's the part operators should watch. Expanding a membership isn't only about how many people can join. It's also about deciding which benefits can travel with them and which should remain limited. Subscription Insider won't know yet whether GoodRx got that balance right. The useful numbers will come later: how many individual members move to Family, how much the added benefits get used and whether those families stay longer. The test is whether broader access makes the membership more valuable to keep without making it too expensive to serve.

GoodRx expands subscription strategy with Companion Family Plan. New $24.99 monthly plan includes a primary member and up to four dependents, including children, adults, and pets, with more than 250 generic medications available for free and savings on dental, vision, lab and imaging services. September 3, 2026. 9:17 AM SANTA MONICA, Calif. - GoodRx today launched the Companion Family Plan, expanding its everyday healthcare subscription to entire households, including children, adult family members, and pets. As widening coverage gaps and rising out-of-pocket costs leave households paying more for care, the new plan brings Companion's free and low-cost prescriptions and savings on common healthcare services together in one affordable, predictably priced membership. "Families don't experience healthcare costs one person at a time. They're simultaneously managing prescriptions and care for kids, parents, partners, and even pets," said Wendy Barnes, President and CEO of GoodRx. "Expanding Companion across the entire household allows us to support consumers in a way that reflects this reality. It also advances our strategy to make GoodRx a more central part of how consumers navigate and pay for healthcare." One Plan. More Ways for Families to Save. The Companion Family Plan, which costs $24.99 per month or $16.99 per month when paying annually, extends Companion benefits to a primary member and up to four dependents, which may include children, adult family members, and pets. Members can access more than 250 eligible generic medications for free and hundreds more for under $10 at nearly every pharmacy nationwide, plus savings on dental, vision, lab and imaging services. The primary member also receives access to $19 online care visits. Together, these features give families an affordable and predictable way to save across prescriptions and common healthcare needs. Building a Broader Subscription Offering The Companion Family Plan expands the reach and value of GoodRx's subscription offering, creating a more continuous way to support consumers beyond individual prescription transactions. Building on more than a decade of medication pricing expertise, extensive relationships with retail pharmacies, and a trusted consumer brand, GoodRx is uniquely positioned to scale this model. Companion complements the company's condition-focused offerings for weight loss, erectile dysfunction, and hair loss. Supporting Growth and Retention for Retail Pharmacy Partners Companion gives members access to meaningfully lower prices than they would receive through a traditional prescription discount, while allowing them to continue filling at the pharmacies they already know and trust. This helps retail pharmacy partners strengthen patient relationships, support prescription volume, and deliver a more compelling consumer experience, with no additional cost to participate. The Companion Family Plan broadens those benefits while preserving favorable pharmacy economics and reinforcing the value of GoodRx's retail pharmacy network. Making Companion an Employee Benefit GoodRx plans to offer Companion through Employer Direct, giving employers a flexible, predictable way to subsidize memberships and help lower employees' out-of-pocket healthcare costs. Companion can complement existing health benefits by addressing prescription costs and other coverage gaps, or extend healthcare savings to workers who are not eligible for traditional benefits. The expansion creates a new channel for Companion while giving employers another way to support healthcare affordability for their workforce.
