VoxStream · x402

A pay-per-buffer marketplace where game engines stream studio-grade voice lines directly into scenes. Instead of bulk licensing, devs pay $0.01 USDC per clip activation. Characters are 'fueled' by micropayments, ensuring voice actors receive real-time royalties every time their performance is triggered in-game.

The primitive.

full primer →

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

Why this primitiveTraditional licensing is too heavy for indie procedural games. By turning voice assets into x402-metered calls, we synchronize game logic with financial settlement. The HTS transfer signature turns every 'Play Audio' command into a verifiable micro-transaction.
