How It Works

1
Paste your RSS feed or sitemap URL

We read your existing feed — your site stays completely untouched. No CDN integration, no DNS changes, no WordPress plugin required (though we have one if you want it).

2
Preview your content & set pricing

We detect your articles and show you a preview. You choose how much to charge per query — anywhere from $0.01 to $1.00. We suggest prices based on your vertical.

3
Your MCP endpoint goes live

Your content is instantly available at yoursite.mcp.xpay.sh. AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, custom agents) discover it automatically through our Discovery Hub.

4
AI agents query, you earn

Every time an AI agent queries your content, they pay your price. You receive 95% instantly in your wallet. No invoicing, no net-30, no minimum payouts.

Pricing Strategy

Recommended pricing by vertical

• **Recipes & Food**: $0.03–$0.08 per query (high volume, lower per-article value) • **Finance & Investing**: $0.10–$0.50 per query (specialized, high-value data) • **Health & Medical**: $0.10–$0.30 per query (professional, research-grade) • **Travel & Lifestyle**: $0.05–$0.15 per query (planning and reference) • **Technology & News**: $0.05–$0.10 per query (time-sensitive, frequent queries) • **Academic & Research**: $0.15–$0.50 per query (deep, unique content) Start lower and increase as demand grows. You can change pricing anytime.

Three tools, one price

Your endpoint exposes three tools to AI agents: • **search-content** — AI agents search your articles by keyword • **get-article** — AI agents fetch the full content of a specific article • **list-recent** — AI agents browse your latest articles All three are priced the same. In the future, you'll be able to set per-tool pricing.

What Gets Indexed

RSS feeds

We index every article in your RSS feed — title, description, full content (converted to clean markdown), author, and publish date. Content is re-fetched every 6 hours to pick up new articles.

Sitemaps

For sitemaps, we index the URL structure. Article content is fetched on-demand when an AI agent requests it. This means your first query for each article may be slightly slower (~200ms extra).

Content controls

Whatever is in your RSS feed is what gets indexed. If you want to exclude certain articles, remove them from your feed. We respect robots.txt and won't index pages you've blocked.

Analytics & Revenue

Real-time dashboard

Your dashboard at app.xpay.sh shows: query count, revenue earned, top tools called, average latency, and unique AI agents querying your content.

Revenue settlement

Revenue accrues instantly in your xpay wallet. You can withdraw anytime via USDC transfer (on Base) or Stripe Connect (coming soon) to your bank account.

Daily digest

We send a daily email summary with your query volume, revenue, and trending content.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to change my website?

No. We read your RSS feed externally. Your site, CDN, and DNS stay completely untouched.

How do AI agents find my content?

Your content is automatically listed in our Discovery Hub (xpay.tools) and machine-readable files (agents.txt, mcp.json, llms.txt). AI agents discover it through these channels.

What if an AI agent query fails?

They don't pay. Our billing uses a lock/deduct pattern: funds are reserved before the query, and only charged on success. Failed queries are automatically refunded.

How much does xpay take?

5% platform fee. You keep 95% of every query payment.

Can I set different prices for different articles?

Not yet — pricing is per-server (all queries same price). Per-article pricing is on our roadmap.

What's the difference between credits and x402?

Most queries use credits (off-chain, instant, no gas fees). x402 is the on-chain option for larger amounts using USDC on Base. Both are transparent and non-custodial.

Is there a free tier?

AI agent users get $5 free credits on signup. As a publisher, there's no cost to list — you only pay the 5% fee on queries you receive.

Ready to make AI pay for your content?

5-minute setup. No CDN changes. No code changes.
