Get paid for the wait.
Dwell shows one tasteful sponsored line at the bottom of your AI coding tool — and pays you for the genuine attention it earns. No prompts read. No code touched. Ever.

Working… esc to interrupt
Always on
The line lives in your status bar — not just while it thinks.
Verified
We grade real, present attention — and only charge for that.
One command
Sign in with Google once. You're earning on the next turn.
Three steps. The whole thing runs itself.
Install in one command
Run npx dwell, click Sign in with Google once, and Dwell quietly adds an ad line above your existing status bar — your setup stays untouched.
A line shows while you build
A single sponsored line sits in the bar and rotates over time. No pop-ups, no noise — it's just there, the way a good status line should be.
You earn on real attention
Dwell measures genuine, present wait-time and pays you for it. Cash out through Stripe once you pass a quick identity check.
Verified attention,
zero surveillance.
For advertisers
Every charged impression carries proof that a real, present human was at the keyboard during a genuine wait. You pay for attention that actually happened — not a number on a dashboard.
For developers
Targeting uses only the interests you choose on the website. We never read your prompts, your code, or your files. The client only ever knows when a turn starts and ends — never what's in it.
Your wait time is worth something.
You already stare at the spinner. Dwell turns that idle moment into income without changing how you work — and without ever reading a line of your code.
