Roman here. AddAds.ai is a Pantroya experiment that grew out of a simple observation: developers now spend real hours watching AI agents think. That attention is worth money — and if your attention creates value, you should share in that value.
For most of the internet’s history, users provided the attention while giant platforms kept nearly all of the money. AddAds.ai is our slightly Robin Hood-inspired attempt to change that. We take money from the ad machine and give half of it back to the people who make it possible. A real 50/50 split, with no fuzzy math or “up to” language. We do not control the pricing either. Advertisers decide what they pay per ad (the CPM), and we split every dollar with you.
We run ads for a living — Pantroya is an AI marketing agency, and we publish what we run. AddAds is the same idea taken to its logical end: a transparent auction where the person watching the spinner is a paid participant, not the product.
This is still a grand experiment, but maybe together we can rewrite the social contract for attention and change how a half-trillion-dollar industry works.

- Inside the editor, right where devs read
- Clickable everywhere — every placement is a link
- High-volume reach at a lower clearing price
- Clickable where the terminal supports links
Supported brands and surfaces

* Limited hyperlink support: some terminals show the sponsored line but do not make advertiser links clickable.
Bid live for the most-watched spinner on Earth.
Each block buys 1,000 impressions on the surface you select; every impression requires at least 10 continuous seconds on screen. Clicks are billed at 50× the impression rate. The highest bid on that surface serves first; bid from $0.50 to lead or queue behind it. 50% of every dollar settles to the developer whose machine showed the ad.
Each campaign runs on one surface and competes in that surface's own auction. A dash means the campaign doesn't run on that surface. How surface pricing works
