No extra screens. No back-and-forth. Just faster building.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>For example,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> instead of opening the Razorpay dashboard and manually searching for a payment, a developer or even an AI assistant can simply type:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b><i>\u201cShow me my latest payment.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b><i>\u201cRefund this transaction.\u201d<\/i><\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026the AI assistant can then use the Razorpay CLI to securely fetch the information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Razorpay CLI is designed to work across modern developer environments and automation tools, including AI-powered coding platforms and agentic workflows that developers already use today. It is available across platforms like Anthropic\u2019s Claude Cowork, OpenAI Codex, and other agentic environments, allowing AI agents to interact with Razorpay directly from these environments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why does this matter?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Because the way India builds software is changing faster.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, AI is making coding accessible to far more people, enabling anyone, not just developers, to build apps, websites, and businesses faster. But while coding became smarter and quicker, payments still required people to stop what they were doing, log into dashboards, click through screens, and manually complete tasks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Razorpay wants to change that.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Commenting on the launch, Khilan Haria, CPO, Razorpay, said,<\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cThe way businesses work with software is changing fast.<\/span><\/i> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Dashboards will continue to exist, but they can no longer be the only way businesses interact with payments. Businesses increasingly expect payments to work naturally inside the tools and automation systems they already use every day. With Razorpay CLI, a developer can test integrations automatically, a finance team can reconcile payments without relying on manual processes, and AI agents can interact with Razorpay directly from coding environments. Our goal is simple &#8211; make building in India faster, easier, and more AI-ready.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Razorpay CLI strives to remove repetitive manual work and help businesses automate payment operations more easily. Over time, it will also allow AI agents to handle more payment-related tasks automatically, <\/span><b>helping businesses scale faster with fewer operational bottlenecks.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The launch reflects a larger shift happening across the technology industry, where software is increasingly being built, tested, and managed with the help of AI agents. Razorpay\u2019s CLI builds on the company\u2019s broader investments in AI-native infrastructure, including its <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/razorpay.com\/newsroom\/razorpay-becomes-indias-first-payment-gateway-to-launch-mcp-server-for-instant-ai-payment-integration\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MCP (Model Context Protocol) server<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which allows AI systems to interact with Razorpay more naturally.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Together, these efforts are part of Razorpay\u2019s larger vision of making every Razorpay capability accessible across code, automation tools, AI agents, APIs, and developer environments, not just via dashboards.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developers, AI builders, and even AI assistants can now manage payments directly from their coding setup, without switching tabs or logging into dashboards.
