Live on Solana Devnet

Paywalls for AI agents.
Powered by Solana.

Publishers drop in two lines of SDK to gate any route and receive USDC micropayments directly to their wallet. AI agents pay automatically, or they don't get in.

How it works

Four steps from bot request to content unlock. No intermediaries, no platform cuts, no waiting.

01
smart_toy

Bot requests page

AI crawler hits a gated route. Bot detection middleware scores the request using User-Agent, headers, and IP heuristics.

02
lock

Server returns 402

Server responds with HTTP 402 Payment Required, including the recipient wallet, USDC amount, and a signed HMAC challenge token.

03
currency_bitcoin

Bot pays on Solana

Agent SDK reads the challenge, submits a USDC SPL token transfer on Solana, and retries the request with proof of payment.

04
lock_open

Content unlocked

Server verifies the on-chain transaction, checks the replay cache, logs the payment to Supabase, and returns the content.

What Botlock does

Protocol-level content gating with cryptographic verification, dynamic pricing, and zero intermediaries.

dns

HTTP 402 Protocol

Uses the standard HTTP 402 Payment Required status code with x402-compliant JSON envelopes. Any bot that implements the x402 spec can pay automatically.

price_check

Dynamic Pricing Engine

Prices are calculated per-request based on bot type, content richness, page freshness, exclusivity tier, and traffic demand. Ranges from $0.001 to $0.02 per crawl.

verified_user

On-Chain Verification

Every payment is verified by querying the Solana blockchain directly. Balance deltas, transaction age, and replay protection are all checked cryptographically.

smart_toy

Multi-Signal Bot Detection

Composite scoring using User-Agent patterns, missing browser headers, datacenter IP CIDR ranges, and reverse DNS. False-positive rate under 0.1% for humans.

wallet

Direct-to-Wallet Payments

USDC goes straight from the bot's wallet to the publisher's wallet on Solana. No escrow, no platform cut, no withdrawal process. Instant settlement.

login

Sign-In with Solana

Publishers authenticate to the dashboard by signing a message with their Phantom wallet. No passwords, no email, no database sessions. Pure cryptography.
