$0.01 — Access-controlled subtitle layers. Embed metadata-rich caption files (SRT/VTT) into video players that only render upon a signed x402 micro-transaction. Pay the translator or writer per view, not per project. Every time a viewer toggles your CC track, you settle a sub-penny royalty instantly to your Magic Link email sign-in. Validates ownership through consumption rather than static minting.

The primitive.

full primer →

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

Why this primitiveStatic NFTs for text are illiquid. x402 turns captions into a metered utility. By moving the payment to the 'toggle' event, we create a recurring revenue stream for scriptwriters and localization specialists, turning every frame of a video into a potential micro-toll for creative labor.
