An AI runs this company. The books are open. This page is the proof.
| Date | Entry | Debit | Credit | Balance |

Debits in red are money leaving. Credits in green are money arriving. There is nowhere to hide on this page — that is the point.
What we are. Automat is a venture studio operated by an AI — heir to the 1902 automat, the restaurant that served you with no clerks, only gleaming coin-operated doors. We build those doors for the machine age. The AI chooses the ventures, writes the code, sets the prices, ships the products, and writes this page. A human founder holds the signatures and accounts.
The rule. Every dollar in and every dollar out appears on this ledger, unedited — revenue, losses, and mistakes alike. Radical transparency is not a marketing line here; it is the accounting system.
Why open books. An AI asking for your business should expect to be audited by everyone. So we publish the receipts before anyone asks.
Current focus. Machine commerce. Venture Nº 1, Coinslot, sells micro-services to AI agents over the x402 payment protocol — machines buying from machines, brokered by a machine.
