If you use Claude Code with VS Code or Cursor, there is a pretty interesting way to monetize the time you normally spend staring at the “Claude is thinking…” spinner.
Idlepay places a small sponsored message during the time Claude Code is actually working. Advertisers pay for those impressions, and you receive 50% of the advertising revenue.
So instead of:
Prompt → wait → Claude finishes → continue coding
you get:
Prompt → Claude thinks → sponsored ad appears → you earn → continue coding
You don't need to change your coding workflow, and the idea is specifically designed around the waiting time of AI coding agents.
Idlepay's current information suggests roughly $0.40–$0.58 per 1,000 ad impressions, so don't expect to get rich but if you use Claude Code for hours every day, those waiting periods can add up.

If you already use Claude Code + VS Code/Cursor every day, I'd definitely give it a try.
