# Photon

> Photon is a prescription marketplace platform that sits between the prescribe and fill moments, enabling patients to comparison-shop pharmacies by price and convenience. We integrate with EHRs, pharmacies, and payers to give patients real choice at the point of prescription.

## For agents

Start with the onboarding schema. It returns a complete `allPaths` tree with each path's mode, entry URL, steps, and fields. Resolve first-party links in this file against the current host so Vercel previews and production stay aligned.

Agents may help a user evaluate Photon and may complete the developer sandbox path with explicit user consent. The developer sandbox is free, does not require payment, and cannot send real prescriptions. Prescriber access requires verification. Clinic, enterprise, platform, and other production paths are sales-led or handoff-led and should expect human follow-up.

A unified MCP server for Photon is planned but not yet available. In the interim, agents can call the same site endpoints used by the browser onboarding funnel.

## Markdown access

For human-facing pages, send `Accept: text/markdown` to receive a Markdown representation of the page instead of HTML. HTML remains the default for browser requests. Markdown responses include `Content-Type: text/markdown`, `Content-Signal`, and `x-markdown-tokens`.

Direct Markdown aliases are also available for page URLs by appending `.md`, with `/index.html.md` for the homepage.
Canonical HTML pages advertise their Markdown alternate with `rel="alternate"; type="text/markdown"` response headers and HTML head links.

## How to use this site

Photon serves prescribers, developers, clinics, enterprise health systems, and clinical platforms. The fastest way to determine what's available to you is to fetch the onboarding schema, which describes all paths and their requirements.
