Advertiser interest · demand smoke
Sponsor verified wait states.
Wheelie is exploring verified wait-state attention: sponsor messages shown only while coding work is already waiting, with qualified exposure funding developer credits. This self-serve intake collects campaign intent for review; it does not turn on live ads, billing, or cash payouts.
- No artificial waits. Sponsorship must never create, extend, reorder, or hide a wait.
- Non-semantic chrome only. Sponsor copy is limited to status/wait surfaces, not agent reasoning, proof, safety, or result content.
- No private-context targeting. Prompts, code, diffs, logs, issues, repo names, commands, and outputs are not used for ad targeting or advertiser reporting.
What the smoke measures
Demand and aggregate reporting before marketplace.
Qualified lead intent Do developer-tool advertisers understand verified wait-state attention that funds developer credits?
Budget language Which tests feel natural: CPC, fixed sponsor, prepaid credits, or capped notional experiments?
Aggregate reports only Future reports can cover spend, eligible operations, counted impressions, viewability, clicks, credit grants, reversals, fraud holds, and coarse surface/category breakdowns with small-cohort suppression.
