Any AI agent can now
buy at her shop.

Lena builds each 1:43 car by hand in her spare room. Open Counter makes her shop readable and payable for anyone's AI shopping agent — and every order still needs a human's yes in PayPal.

01 · TRY IT

Talk to her sales agent.

Lena's own sales agent (NVIDIA Nemotron), using the same nine tools any outside agent gets over MCP. Ask in English or Russian: a car from the shelf, or one made to order. It prepares the PayPal checkout; only you can pay. Lena reads every chat and teaches it.

Hi, I'm Lena's sales agent. Tell me what you're looking for and where it should go: a car from the shelf, or one made to order in your colours. I'll check stock and delivery and give you a receipt with a PayPal button. Only you can pay.

02 · ON THE BENCH

Each car built by hand.

Resin bodies, photo-etched brass trim, paint mixed by hand. Every listing is written once and read two ways: by people, and by agents.

How one is made 24 to 30 hours each, by hand

1 · Body The resin body is sanded smooth by hand.
2 · Paint The factory colour, mixed and airbrushed in thin coats.
3 · Wheels Turned wheels, set one at a time with tweezers.
4 · Trim Photo-etched chrome, glued under the magnifier.

Lena and her bench are an AI-generated illustration of the work; the shop and the counter are real, and the payments are real PayPal sandbox payments.

WHY NOW

Shoppers ask their AI. Small makers aren't in the answer.

+693%traffic from AI assistants to US retail sites, 2025 holidays vs 2024 (Adobe Analytics) ~70%of Americans could imagine using AI to pick Christmas gifts (Statista survey, 2025) 5.6Mactive sellers on Etsy alone at the end of 2025: makers like Lena

PayPal's agentic checkout (Store Sync, Agent Ready) is request-access and built around platform stores (PayPal developer docs). Open Counter gives a one-person shop the same reach with what any PayPal account already has.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Legible. Payable. Still hers.

Legible

Lena's listings become a public counter: a page for people, a JSON card and an MCP server for agents. Agents get facts only — size, paint, stock, delivery — never guesses.

Payable

Any agent can start a PayPal order (Orders v2) priced on our server, line by line, with the buyer's address. Made-to-order builds get a PayPal invoice: half now, the rest before shipping.

Still hers

Nothing is charged until a human approves in PayPal. Her rules hold in code: US shipping only, any quantity up to the stock shown, made-to-order prices and build times from her table, stock checked again at capture.

FOR ANY MAKER

One photo and one sentence, and your shop is readable by every AI shopping agent. The AI writes the words; you set the price.
