AI AGENT Act of 2026

This bill would give users of large online platforms (those with more than 50 million U.S. customers or subscribers in a month) the right to authorize software agents, including AI agents, to manage their interactions, purchases, content, and account settings on their behalf. Large platforms would have to provide access interfaces to these agents on fair, reasonable, and nondiscriminatory terms, and could charge reasonable fees only for usage beyond set thresholds. Agent providers would have to register with the Federal Trade Commission and follow duties such as protecting user data, not using it for advertising or sale, and keeping records of actions taken for the user. The Federal Trade Commission would write rules, handle complaints and appeals of denied access, and enforce the law, counting each affected user as a separate violation when setting fines.
