FAQ

Frequently asked.

What is AdSlop?

A VS Code extension that shows one sponsored line in your status bar while you actively code, and pays you 50% of the ad revenue your verified sessions earn. No AI, no prompts, no new habits — you just code.

Do you ever see my code?

No. Your code, file names, keystrokes, and secrets never leave your machine. The extension only sends edit counts and timing gaps — just enough to prove a real human is coding. See the Privacy page for the exact list.

How much can I earn?

It scales with your active coding time and live advertiser demand — ads bid in an open auction and you keep half of what your verified minutes earn. We won’t quote inflated figures; real earnings grow as the network does.

How do I get paid?

Payouts run through Stripe to your bank, from a €10 minimum, weekly or on demand. Track your balance in the extension’s “Show Earnings” panel or on your dashboard.

Is it intrusive?

No. It’s a single status-bar line, always dismissible. Toast notifications are opt-in and off by default, and capped per hour so they never spam you.

When do I stop earning?

Automatically after a few idle minutes (configurable), and instantly if you disable it in settings or uninstall. You only earn while you’re genuinely coding.

Which editors are supported?

VS Code today, plus VS Code–compatible editors via Open VSX (e.g. VSCodium, Cursor). Support for more IDEs is on the roadmap.

How do you stop bots and cheating?

Every session is scored for human-like typing rhythm, session shape, and device/network signals. Faked or automated activity earns nothing and can suspend the account — verifying real humans is the whole point.

I want to advertise — how does it work?

Ads are text-only and bid in an open auction from $1, billed per verified impression and per click, from a pre-funded budget. See the For Brands section on the homepage.

Why is it called “Slop”?

Because they’re ads and we’re not pretending otherwise. The deal is honest: you get paid for attention you were giving away anyway.

Is it a crypto miner or spyware?

Neither. No mining, no code exfiltration. Just a status-bar ad and an anonymous “is this a human coding” signal.

Still stuck? Email support@adslop.dev and we'll sort it out.
