Your Content Feeds AI. Your Revenue Feeds Nothing.

Your breaking story in an AI summary — no click-through, no ad impression.

50-70%

Traffic Lost

Recipe sites, how-to blogs, and info sites report 50-70% traffic declines. AI Overviews answer the question. Users never click.

$2B/Year

Gone

IAB Tech Lab estimates $2 billion in annual ad revenue losses across publishing. AI crawlers hit your site 50,000 times a day. Referral traffic back? 0.7%.

Licensing?

Not For You.

NYT gets $250M. Forbes gets direct deals. You get nothing. Enterprise licensing solutions exist, but they're built for the top 0.1%. Mid-tier publishers are left out.

This Is What AI Agents Do With Your Content.For Free.

Every one of these queries uses YOUR content. Right now, you earn nothing. With xpay, every query is a revenue event.

News & Media Publisher Monetization FAQ

Common questions about monetizing AI agent traffic

xpay lets you charge AI agents per query when they scrape and summarize your reporting. Instead of losing traffic to AI overviews, you earn revenue every time an agent references your journalism.

Yes. xpay supports dynamic per-query pricing, so you can set higher rates for breaking news, exclusives, and time-sensitive reporting that AI agents need in real time.

xpay works at the publisher level. Your original reporting, analysis, and editorial content is monetized independently. Wire content on your site is yours to price via per-query rates just like any other article.

No, xpay is complementary to your existing ad network. Display ads and subscriptions continue serving human readers, while xpay captures new revenue from AI bot traffic that bypasses your ads entirely.

About 5 minutes. Paste your publication URL, set your per-query price, and xpay generates your monetization endpoint. No CMS changes or engineering resources required.
