DraftDraft · x402

A collaborative canvas where every stroke, frame-add, or version-branch is a paid micro-transaction. Pay $0.01 per frame update to commit your edit to the global sequence. The protocol settles real-time royalties back to original artists whenever their frames are 'inherited' or branched into a final production director's cut. No more disputed credits; the ledger is the source of truth, paid for by the contributors.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the collaborative 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 primitiveBy replacing free 'autosave' with x402 commits, the app creates a high-integrity audit trail for IP. This eliminates 'free-riding' in collaborative sessions and ensures that heavy contributors are compensated through the downstream inheritance of their paid commits.
