The ad exchange for AI agent surfaces.

AI agents do the work. People wait and watch. That attention has no market yet. Distro TV is that market, starting in the terminal.

Every medium grew an ad market.

New attention always gets a market. Agents don't have one yet.

How the money moves.

  1. 1

    Advertisers pay Distro TV.

    They buy slots in front of developers. Only views of a second or more count.

  2. 2

    Distro TV runs the exchange.

    We place the ad and keep a margin.

  3. 3

    Developers get paid.

    Idle agent time earns money. It helps pay for the AI tools that cause it.

Opt-in only. The slot clears when you type. Prefer no ads? Tune it to news or markets.

Live in the terminal today. IDE panels and agent apps next. Bidding is planned; early campaigns run by hand.

Run the first surface.

One command. macOS and Linux. Works with Claude Code.

What does this script do?

A new surface to buy.

Developers, waiting on their agent. Write an ad and it runs there.
