$0.01 — Render-on-demand collaboration. Pay to push high-res edit states or pull frame-accurate feedback. x402 handles the 'handshake' between editors: every sequence sync is a signed micropayment, eliminating credit systems for pure pay-per-sync velocity.

The primitive.

full primer →

Access to the collaborative editing 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 primitiveBy turning 'sharing' into a paid primitive, you eliminate spam and ensure the facilitator (compute/storage) is compensated per action. It treats the edit timeline as a metered API, allowing global teams to collaborate without monthly subscriptions.
