FrameFlow · x402

A 'pay-per-frame' engine for collaborative world-building. Artists commit storyboard panels to the global canvas; directors pay 0.01 USDC to unlock full-resolution depth maps, metadata, or version-histories. Every review, 'like', or branch-point is a micro-settlement ensuring contributors are paid for every frame they influence.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the distributed storyboarding 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 primitiveTransitioning from a static 'chain' to a 'flow' of micropayments validates creative labor in real-time. By metering the access to high-fidelity assets and script revisions, the protocol turns a workspace into a live secondary market for narrative pre-production.
