About

Developers wait on AI all day. That wait is an ad slot. One network, three doors. If you code: install the VS Code, Cursor or Chrome extension. A native ad while the model thinks. You keep 70%. We don't read your prompts. If you sell a developer tool: you show up in the IDE and the browser, targeted by the stack they actually use (React, Python, AWS). Pay €200, get €400 this week. If you shipped a chat app: npm i @idlen/chat-sdk. Three lines. Ads optional. No key, no ads. You keep 70%.

AI Summary

Idlen allows developers to monetize idle time while using AI in their IDE or browser by displaying native ads, retaining 70% of the revenue. The platform offers extensions for VS Code, Cursor, and Chrome, enabling targeted advertising based on the developer's tech stack.

A source that found nothing is a measurement. A source that has not run is a gap. Neither means the launch lacks the thing.
