Your AI agent’s “Thinking...” is now ad space.
VibeAd swaps the spinner with one short, clearly labelled sponsored line. The tool works exactly the same.

Questions
Does VibeAd change what my agent says or does?
No. The ad shows in the agent’s status or notice area. Your prompts, the model’s context and its output are left alone.
What data does it send?
Only what’s needed to pick and count an ad: which ad, which agent and when. Never your prompts, code or file paths.
When do payouts start?
Accounts, earnings tracking and payouts open soon. We’ll announce it on X and LinkedIn.
Which platforms are supported?
Mac (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux x64. See the install guide on GitHub.
