When Claude Code or Codex is thinking, it shows a throwaway word — "Percolating…". SpinVerb rents that one line to sponsors and pays 50% of the revenue to you, straight to your UPI.
No surveys, no videos, no crypto, no weird browser bars. One sponsored line, only while your agent is already making you wait.
A lightweight VS Code extension (CLI supported too). It only touches the spinner line — never your code, never your prompts.
While Claude Code or Codex thinks, sponsors bid for that one line. Each verified 5-second view earns you a credit. Clicks earn 50×.
50% of every rupee a sponsor pays settles to your balance. Monthly payout to any UPI ID, ₹500 minimum. Full ledger, no mystery math.
We're not going to lie to you with a big fake monthly number. Earnings depend on how much sponsors bid and how much you code. At launch volumes, an active dev should expect ₹100–₹500 a month.
That's your chai sorted, and a dent in your AI subscription — money for a line you were going to stare at anyway. As more sponsors join the auction, rates go up. You'll always see exactly what every impression paid.
Your message renders inside the editor of a developer who is actively building — not scrolling past a feed. Hosting, dev tools, hiring, APIs: this is the moment they're choosing what to use.
Context you can't buy elsewhere. A developer waiting on an AI agent is mid-build. "Deploy it on ___" lands differently at that exact second.
India's AI-native developers. The earliest adopters of Claude Code and Codex — the people who pick the stack for their team and their startup.
Pay only for verified views. An impression counts only after the line was actually on screen for 5 seconds in an active session. Click-throughs billed separately. Full transparent reporting.
Founding sponsor slots. Early partners get locked launch rates, category exclusivity, and their brand in our launch story.
Beta opens with a small invite group. Waitlist members get priority access and a founding-user badge in their ledger.
No. The extension swaps the text of the spinner line and records that an ad was visible. It does not read, store, or transmit your code, prompts, or files. The client source is published so you can verify exactly what runs on your machine.
Probably not, and we won't pretend otherwise. Expect chai money — ₹100–₹500 a month at launch volumes. It offsets your subscription; it doesn't replace it. If sponsor demand grows, your rate grows with it.
Impressions only count in genuinely active coding sessions — we check for real editor activity, cap daily credits, and hold payouts for review on new accounts. Boring for fraudsters, which is the point. Clean traffic is what keeps sponsor money (and your payouts) flowing.
Monthly, to any UPI ID, with a ₹500 minimum balance. PAN verification is required before your first payout (it's an income, and we do this properly). Your dashboard shows every impression, click, and rupee.
No. SpinVerb is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic or OpenAI. If either platform changes in a way that breaks the experience, the extension gracefully falls back to the stock spinner.
