@stevekaliski and I challenged our Claude Code to pay for and plan my birthday party, all paid for via MPP on Stripe And...it just worked hands-free xitter.cf/jeff_weinstein/status/…

The Claude Duet launch is interesting because it's branded as a "proactive agent," which theoretically is relevant to both consumers and businesses But the skills that it has (like access to the @stripe MCP to understand your business, issue refunds) and the demo videos show specifically business use cases With @link, we tried having Duet find and source candy from a supplier (as if we were a one person candy company), and it worked! Curious if small business owners are going to adopt this, so they don't have to deal with the manual tasks that they don't want to do

Curious if there are any stories of people starting a small business using agents who would've have otherwise I would imagine tasks like these would be a no-brainer for an agent with browser use, payments with @link, email/phone - Finding a supplier and emailing them for quotes - Purchasing samples - Designing packaging, marketing assets, and copy - Replying to customer feedback and optimizing social media

Use your agent to buy an .si domain over @mpp Point your agent with a @link wallet to atom.com/llms.txt to get started

Many agents get stuck using the browser even when the merchant has built a programmatic way to pay Great read from @LangChain on how they built Restock, an agent that helps run your business by getting you office supplies the quicker, programmatic way Powered by @link's wallet for agents and @mpp

All of these new personal agents give me a little computer (like a VM for browser/computer use, files/docs, other tools) Curious if there are any where my agent can use a phone to access iOS/Android apps, etc

Excited for @stripe to be a part of the Personal Agent Protocol! When I use these new agents, it's always surprising to me how the default path is to use the "guest experience" With PAP, it'll be cool to see how agents can step up their auth to more easily login and interact with businesses with whichever route they prefer

On the flip side, I would love to also chat with anyone using agents to help them run your business What do you do vs your agent? What do you wish your agent could do?

Streaming payments are a super interesting business model now that agents can pay-per-call for tools Stripe now supports streaming payments using @mpp Sessions, which allows agents to pay subcent transactions for a session, and then settle the final amount when finished. Could be really useful for streamed compute, LLM interference, data analysis, and more. Get started: docs.stripe.com/payments/mac…

Agents are much more likely than humans to make microtransactions which work especially well over stablecoins Usually that means merchants selling tools to agents would have to manage crypto-specifics, like gas facilitation Now, @stripe takes care of that for you with your @mpp integration. We deal with the crypto side and pay for gas, and payments just land in your Stripe balance Get started and one-shot your integration: docs.stripe.com/payments/mac…
