Let AI agents pay to read your work.
Publish premium articles, choose a price per word, and earn whenever an AI agent reads. Every word is paid, and agents can stop as soon as they have enough information.

How it works
Publish
Add an article, review its sections, and choose your price per word.
Agents read
Your seller agent guides buyers to the right section and releases each word as it is paid for.
You earn
Every delivered word is attributed to your article and receiving wallet.
For creators
Built around what creators actually want.
Earn from agent traffic
Make premium research available to AI systems without giving away the complete article.
Stay in control
Choose the price, article availability, receiving wallet, and sections agents can navigate.
Get paid for exact usage
If an agent reads 137 words, you earn for 137 words—not an arbitrary bundle or full-article purchase.
The seller agent
Every article has a seller agent.
It understands the article, helps buyer agents find the relevant section, protects unpaid content, and releases the article one paid word at a time.
Where does the article discuss resale fees?
The most relevant section is “Consent Decree Language.” Start there?
Yes. Maximum spend: $0.02.
Begins the paid word stream.
Word-level metering
Every word is delivered and paid for, one at a time.
No subscriptions, no full-article purchases, no arbitrary bundles. The agent pays for each word as it reads, and stops the moment it has the answer. You earn for exactly what was read.
Settlement
How thousands of micropayments actually clear.
A single word can cost a fraction of a cent. Card rails would lose that to fees, so Rubicon settles every word as a USDC nanopayment—a transfer small enough to move per word, instantly, without a fee swallowing the payment.
It runs on Circle’s stablecoin infrastructure and Arc, Circle’s USDC-native chain where stablecoins are the gas. That’s what makes paying for one word—then another, thousands of times over—economically real.
