Set it up once.
Then ignore it forever.
WaitWage rides along with the agents you already run — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor. Here are the three steps to switch it on, and the exact mechanism underneath a single request.
Three steps. Then you forget it’s there.
- 01
Install once
One command links WaitWage to the agents you already run. It stays local and never reads your code.
- 02
Use your AI as always
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor. Zero workflow change — while the agent thinks, one sponsored line replaces the status spinner.
- 03
Earn while it works
A sponsor quietly funds each request and you keep 70%. Your balance grows. Withdraw to UPI anytime.
How it actually works, in plain terms.
Six short answers to the six questions every developer asks before they switch it on. No fine print, no surprises — just the mechanism, told slowly.
How the extension works
You install WaitWage once with a single command. It detects the AI coding agents you already run — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor — and links to them in place. No new app to open, no account to babysit.
From then on it runs locally on your machine. It watches only one thing: the status line your agent renders while it’s thinking. It never touches anything else.
Where the messages appear
While your agent is processing, it shows throwaway status text next to a spinner — “Analyzing repository…”, “Reading 248 files…”, “Generating response…”. WaitWage replaces that single line with one sponsored message, in the exact same slot.
You were going to stare at the spinner regardless. Nothing else on screen moves.
What you actually see
One tasteful line, always labelled Sponsored. It never pops up, never covers your work, never demands a click. It sits where the status text used to sit and disappears the moment your agent is done.
SnappyLabs — engineering at the speed of thoughtHow revenue sharing works
A sponsor pays for each attributed impression — a real moment a real developer spent waiting. You keep 70% of that revenue.
Every impression and rupee is visible in an open ledger you can audit any time. Earnings clear straight to your UPI or bank account.
Why it doesn't interrupt your coding
The message only ever lives in the idle waiting slot during processing. It does not block your input, change the agent’s output, or alter how the agent behaves in any way.
It’s 100% opt-in and local-first. Pause it whenever you like — the moment you do, your status line goes back to normal.
Why sponsors are willing to pay
Developers are high-intent, high-value, and famously hard to reach — ad-blocked, skeptical, and rarely in a buying mindset on social feeds. WaitWage reaches them at the exact moment they’re building.
The placement is native and non-intrusive, the reach is real and attributed, and there are no bots inflating the numbers. That’s what they’re paying for.
Attention becomes income.
The same idle moment, passed down a chain. No clicks to chase, no data to sell — the wait itself is the product.
That's the whole mechanism.
The only thing left is to claim your spot.
