Skip lawsuits. Skip licensing deals.Pay-per-query, 1,000+ publishers.
Your agents need fresh, licensed, citable content. The current options — scrape and pray, negotiate bilateral deals for 18 months, or buy stale Common Crawl — all suck. xpay✦ is the fourth option: one API key, per-query micropayments, every publisher in our network.
The current options all suck.
Scrape and pray. Negotiate for 18 months. Or buy stale Common Crawl. Pick your poison.
Lawsuits are the new normal
NYT v. OpenAI cohort keeps growing. Cloudflare and 38% of top sites now block AI bots by default. The "scrape and pray" era is closing.
Licensing deals don't scale
Bilateral negotiations take 12-18 months and seven-figure minimums. You can't sign 1,000 of them.

Common questions from agent builders evaluating xpay
xpay is a payment-and-licensing layer for AI agents accessing publisher content. Your agent queries an xpay endpoint, we route to the right publisher, settle the micropayment via the x402 protocol, and return licensed, attributable content with receipts.
Those tools fetch the page; the legal status of what you fetched is the same gray zone. xpay is the licensing layer — every retrieved document is paid-for, citable, and audit-trailed.
Bilateral deals take 12-18 months, seven-figure minimums, one publisher per contract. xpay is one API contract that gives per-query access to 1,000+ publishers — you only pay for what you actually retrieve.
Per-query, $0.001-$0.50 depending on publisher and content type. Enterprise committed-spend plans start at $10K/month. New accounts get $50 in free credits.
