Introducing Relo
Relo pays you
While Cursor, Claude Code or Codex is running, Relo shows a short sponsored message
Watch the 10 second ad then get paid in USDC, tokens or stocks
We want developers to get more out of Relo than just a payout
Imagine discovering a new AI model, an API that saves you hours of work, or a tool that makes your coding workflow better
That's the kind of advertising we want on Relo
Relevant products from companies building for developers, shown while their AI tools are working
Developers get paid for their attention and discover products they might actually use
That's the experience we're working toward as we prepare for public launch
Our top beta earner made $60 on Relo in one week
That's 30% of a $200 Claude Max subscription
They earned it through verified sponsored views while using their AI coding tools
Developers already spend hundreds of dollars a year on AI to help them code
We're building Relo to help them earn some of that money back
We've shared a lot of numbers from Relo's private beta
Here's what happens behind a single verified view
→ A developer starts an AI coding task
→ Relo displays a sponsored message while the model works
→ The 10-second view gets verified
→ The developer earns
One workflow connecting developers and advertisers
Here's how it works ↓
We've accepted over 200 developers into Relo's private beta
60 were active last week
The next milestone isn't another 500 signups
It's making Relo something developers want to keep installed
Based on what we've learned during beta, we're exploring a more developer-controlled experience

Relo should fit into your workflow, not interrupt it
50,000 verified views on Relo
That’s 50,000 times:
→ an advertiser paid for developer attention
→ a developer got paid
→ Relo cleared the transaction
50,000 times the marketplace worked end to end
Relo has generated $1,875 in revenue during private beta
→ $7,500 spent by advertisers
→ $5,625 paid to developers
→ $1,875 kept by Relo
The model is simple:
Advertisers pay for verified developer attention
Developers receive 75% of the spend
Relo keeps 25% for running the marketplace
Still early, but real revenue is now moving through the product
We just open sourced Relo
Relo runs inside the tools developers use every day, so you should be able to see exactly what it’s doing
→ Inspect the code
→ See what runs on your machine
→ Review how views are verified
→ Understand what data Relo touches
Trust shouldn’t require taking our word for it ↓
Relo’s top earner has made $25.40 in just a few days
By coding exactly like he normally does
Congrats @Vettan0
While his AI tools are working, Relo shows sponsored messages
The view gets verified
He gets paid
We just signed our biggest advertiser yet
@OpenStrata is committing $5,000 to run campaigns on Relo
Their customer is the exact person Relo reaches every day
If you want to reach developers the same way, advertiser applications are now open
More advertiser spots are open on Relo
Hiring engineers, launching a technical product, or trying to reach a highly targeted audience?
Relo puts your company directly in front of the right people
Relo lets you choose how you get paid:
→ NVDA
→ META
→ AAPL
→ USDC
Next, projects on @RobinhoodCrypto will be able to pay developers in their own token
Relo pays for your AI tools every month
→ watch a 10 second sponsored message while the model runs
→ get paid in USDC, tokens or stocks
Over time, your AI usage can help pay for itself

Most ads compete for attention but developers already spend time waiting for AI to finish
Relo turns those seconds into a market
