Accrual, an augmented accounting intelligence platform used by firms including Armanino and H&R Block, has selected Runloop as the production infrastructure powering its AI agents. The partnership enables Accrual's agents to handle tax preparation and review workflows that run for hours or days whilst maintaining full auditability. Firms using Accrual have reduced preparation time by over 85% and review time by up to 60%. The platform unifies data intake, preparation, review and delivery, allowing AI agents to handle mechanical tasks whilst accountants focus on judgement-based work. Runloop provides secure execution, persistent agent coordination and credential security under a single control plane. The infrastructure is designed for long-running workflows in regulated environments, offering the audit trails required by accountants and regulators.

Runloop, an infrastructure platform for AI agent development and deployment, has announced its participation in Stripe Projects, an initiative unveiled at Stripe Sessions 2026. The integration provides secure sandbox environments for autonomous agents to build, test and launch commerce applications. Stripe CEO Patrick Collison identified two imperatives for businesses in the shift to an AI-driven economy: reinventing products and reimagining business operations. Runloop addresses both by enabling companies to build agentic products and transform internal workflows whilst protecting infrastructure. The Runloop-Stripe integration was featured during the conference keynote, demonstrating autonomous software deployment. Runloop CEO Jonathan Wall said the platform reduces deployment time from months to hours, serving as an execution engine for agentic commerce by providing secure environments where AI agents can perform complex tasks autonomously.

Runloop joins Stripe Projects, providing essential infrastructure for the Agentic Commerce era. PR Newswire Today at 8:34am PDT SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Runloop, the best enterprise-grade infrastructure platform for the development, evaluation, and scalable deployment of AI agents, today announced its participation in Stripe Projects. This initiative, demonstrated for the first time today at Stripe Sessions 2026, hosted by multinational financial services and software as a service company Stripe, Inc., is designed to provide the infrastructure necessary as companies begin replatforming their operations for an era defined by autonomous agents. The Runloop/Stripe integration was featured during the Stripe Sessions 2026 Keynote. The Runloop/Stripe integration was featured during the Stripe Sessions 2026 Keynote, where Runloop provided the specialized sandbox environment used to demonstrate autonomous software deployment. By integrating with the Stripe Projects CLI, Runloop enables companies to move from manual configuration to agent-led execution, providing a secure space for agents to build, test, and launch new commerce applications. Solving the Two Strategic Imperatives During his opening remarks, Stripe Co-founder and CEO Patrick Collison identified a fundamental shift in the global economy. He noted that this transition creates two essential requirements for every organization: "Every business now faces two imperatives: one, to figure out how you're going to reinvent your product, and then second, to reimagine how the business works." Runloop is built to solve both imperatives. Businesses can use Runloop as the foundation to build new agentic products, or as a core execution layer to reimagine how their internal business operations function. By providing secure, high-performance sandboxes, Runloop allows agents to perform complex work autonomously while ensuring that company infrastructure remains protected. "The replatforming of the economy requires a new kind of compute that is built specifically for agents," said Jonathan Wall, CEO of Runloop. "Stripe Projects has defined how agents will handle the commercial side of this shift, and Runloop provides the execution environment that makes agentic commerce possible. We are helping leaders meet both of Patrick's imperatives by providing a platform where agents can safely build products and manage business workflows at scale." Powering the Foundation of Agentic Commerce As Stripe defines the standards for agentic commerce, Runloop provides the execution engine that allows these transactions to occur in the real world. For agents to act as autonomous economic participants, they require more than just a payment method; they need an environment where they can execute the specialized tasks - such as inventory management, deployment, and service orchestration - that make commerce possible. Runloop serves as the foundation for this new economy by providing: * Autonomous Commercial Execution: Enabling agents to perform the actual work required to fulfill a commercial transaction, from spinning up servers to processing data. * Secure Transactional Sandboxes: Providing isolated environments where agents can interact with third-party APIs and sensitive commerce data without risk to the host system. * Scalable Trade Infrastructure: Supporting the high-velocity requirements of agentic commerce, where transactions and the work behind them happen at the speed of an LLM. About Runloop Runloop is the best enterprise-grade infrastructure platform for securely developing, evaluating and scaling deployment of AI agents. Used by companies ranging from top model labs to startups, Runloop reduces time to deploy from months to hours, allowing developers to focus on their agents, not infrastructure.
