## Overview

AgenticAds is a VS Code extension for developers using Claude Code or Codex that displays a single sponsored line in the AI "thinking" spinner and pays 50% of ad revenue to the developer. It requires no behavior change -- only the spinner line is affected, never code or prompts. Payouts go monthly via UPI in India or PayPal elsewhere, with a INR 500 (~$6) minimum. At current launch volumes, active developers can expect roughly $1.60-$8.00/month.

Developers lose time staring at the AI spinner anyway; AgenticAds converts that idle moment into passive income without surveys, videos, or crypto schemes. Advertisers bid in an open auction for verified 5-second impressions shown to developers who are actively mid-build -- a high-intent audience that chooses tools and infrastructure. Every impression is fraud-filtered and measured on-screen, and every click carries UTM tags for conversion tracking.

## Key points

- Injects one sponsored line into the Claude Code / Codex spinner; never touches code, files, or prompts
- Pays developers 50% of verified ad revenue monthly -- UPI (India) or PayPal, INR 500 minimum
- Advertisers pay only for verified 5-second on-screen impressions, with full per-impression ledger and UTM click tracking
