The advertising protocol for the agentic web.
The advertising protocol for the agentic web.
Cookies crumble. Pixels go blind.
The ad stack satisfies only the human mind.
$325B in US digital ads — every dollar assumes a human is watching.
16,000+ MCP servers. 97M monthly SDK downloads. Zero monetization layer.
The eyeball is no longer guaranteed.

// eyeball !== guaranteedOne protocol. Both sides of the screen.
The Protocol — An open spec. Request, response, settlement, disclosure. Forkable by anyone.
The Marketplace — Real-time bidding for agent-served placements.
The SDK — One npm package. Web apps, MCP servers, agent pipelines.
Any payment rail.

interface AdRequest {
intent: string
context: string
rail: "x402" | "mpp" | "stripe" | "card"
}
interface AdResponse {
placement: Placement
settlement: Hash
disclosure: true // non-optional
}

The window is open. The rails are laid.
Build the standard now, or watch it get made.
Six months ago, none of this infrastructure existed. MCP is now the USB-C of AI tool connections. x402 makes sub-cent settlement real. ChatGPT launched ads at $60 CPM. The layer is getting built — by whom is the question.

Not our first protocol. Not our first proof.
We've built the layer. Now we're building the roof.
ETHGlobal New Delhi finalist — AD-402 prototype, top 10 of 616 teams.
Crypto & privacy engineers — built privacy infrastructure and cryptographic systems from the ground up.
DeFi & payments engineers — designed settlement systems, payment flows, and financial primitives on-chain.
