The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the film pitch verification engine is metered with x402: 0.01 HBAR or 0.01 HTS USDC per call, paid from the embedded wallet, so filmmakers — or the agents working for them — pay per query and get a HashScan receipt every time.

Why this primitiveBy moving from 'gasless tracking' to 'paid verification,' the act of reviewing a pitch becomes a metered financial event. This professionalizes the handshake and creates a high-integrity audit trail for IP disputes.
