AI agents now carry wallets and settle their own bills — for data, for tools, for anything that helps them finish a job. The Meter is the turnstile that charges them. One request in, a priced payment demand out, money and answer exchanged in a single round trip. No signup. No invoice. No human in the loop.
Never access to a client's data — only our analysis. Three tiers, priced the way machines buy: small, instant, and per call.
Can AI systems even get in? Scores a domain on the four gates — allowed in, discoverable, readable, actionable — and returns the ranked fixes. Computed live at the edge in under a second.
Do the answer engines actually recommend this business? Real buyer questions, five weighted dimensions, one grade — plus the category and place it was judged on, so the number can never be misread.
Everything above, plus the prioritized action plan, every buyer question tested, and the competitors getting named instead. The whole battlefield, machine-readable.
Selling to machines only works if the machine can trust the meter. So the meter is built to lose money rather than take it wrongly.
The web was built to be browsed by people who could be shown an ad. That audience is being replaced by software that ignores ads, skips the homepage, and simply asks for what it needs.
A human finds your site, reads a page, fills in a form, waits for a callback, gets a quote, and maybe buys. Six steps, three days, one lead — and you paid for the click.
A machine asks, is quoted, pays, and is answered. One step, under a second, and the money arrives before the work does. You were never even awake.
The mechanism is real and identical to the live one: a priced demand, a stablecoin settlement from the agent's own wallet, and proof of payment attached to the retried request. Settlement currently runs on a test network while the rail is proven end to end, which is why the demo on this page costs you nothing.
Because scraping gives it a page, and this gives it an answer. The agent is paying to skip the crawl, the parse, the guesswork and the risk of being wrong — the same reason a person pays for a report instead of doing the research.
Yes, and it is the cheapest new revenue line most businesses have. If you can describe the repeatable question your customers ask before they buy, that question can be published as a metered endpoint machines pay for.
No — it adds a customer type you currently cannot bill. The same expertise gets sold twice: once to the person, once to the machine acting for them.
