Build the storefront however you like
Any AI tool, any framework, any design. The frontend stays in your repo.
Cursor, Claude and ChatGPT can write a beautiful shopfront in an afternoon. None of them can take a payment or hold stock. Orderain is the commerce API that does.

The page looks finished. Then the first real customer arrives.
You keep the part AI is good at. We take the part it is not.
Any AI tool, any framework, any design. The frontend stays in your repo.
Products, cart, checkout, orders and stock, all from one backend. No commerce logic left to write.
They get a real admin. You never become their content management system.
$1 for the first month, then from $5. The only cut on a sale is the processor’s.
One paste into Cursor, Claude or ChatGPT. It reads the docs, pulls your live catalogue, and builds the pages against it.
Your AI will ask for an API token. Create one in your dashboard under Settings, then Headless, and give it only the scopes the storefront actually needs.
Your client should not need a deploy to change a price. Building this screen is a second project. It comes with the API.
| What your AI builds | What Orderain hands you | What you end up with |
|---|---|---|
| A product grid | Products API, variants, images, prices, live stock | A catalogue the owner can edit. |
| A cart and checkout page | Checkout, payments, tax, shipping rates | A page that can charge a customer. |
| A customer account screen | Customer portal, order history, addresses | Buyers who chase their own parcel. |
| A sketch of an admin | A finished dashboard for orders, stock and staff | A second project you never quote for. |
| Some automation ideas | Webhooks for orders and inventory, plus an MCP server | Tools that react the moment something sells. |
Headless commerce is usually priced for enterprises with a procurement team. Every plan here is $1 for the first month, then from $5 a month.
Orderain never takes a cut of a sale. The only thing between what the customer pays and what you keep is your payment processor.

A commerce backend that AI tools can build against. The AI writes the storefront, and the API supplies the parts a storefront cannot fake: products, checkout, orders, inventory, customers, webhooks, and the admin the shop owner works in.
You create an API token in your dashboard under Settings, then Headless, and choose which scopes it carries. Your storefront sends it as a bearer header. Give a public storefront read access only, and keep the write scopes for server side code.
Any of them. It is an HTTP API, so Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, SvelteKit, React Native or a plain HTML page all work the same way. Nothing about the backend assumes a particular frontend, and there is no SDK you are forced to adopt.
Yes. Point them at the docs and they will write the integration for you. There is also an MCP server at mcp.orderain.com, so an assistant can read your catalogue and run the shop by talking to it rather than by calling endpoints.
Orderain takes the payment, creates a real order, decrements stock, and fires the order and inventory webhooks. The order shows up in the dashboard for whoever runs the shop. Your frontend does not have to hold any of that state.
To build a custom storefront on the API, yes, or you need an AI tool doing it for you. Running the shop afterwards needs no code at all. The owner manages products, orders, stock, shipping and staff from the dashboard.
Because that code touches money, stock and customer data, and it has to keep working at two in the morning without you. Payments, refunds, tax, permissions and fulfilment are worth having already built and already tested. Let AI spend its time on the part that makes your store look like nobody else.
No. Orderain charges Zero% platform fees. You pay for the plan and keep 100% of every sale after your payment processor takes its own fee.
$1 for your first month on any plan, then from $5 a month on Starter. There is no per sale cut and no separate charge for the dashboard, the API or the MCP server.
Products, checkout, orders, inventory and webhooks, ready to call today.
Zero% platform fees, always.
