Maximize your earnings with IDE Ads a VS Code, Cursor and Windsurf extension that lets developers earn from simple text ads inside the IDE sidebar. No banners, no popups, no disruption — just native, theme-aware sponsored cards. Developers receive 70% of revenue.
I built Highpay Ads after thinking about how much time developers spend inside their IDE every day.
This started as a quick prototype and became a simple idea: small text ads inside VS Code, Cursor and Windsurf, with most of the revenue going to developers.
Curious what you think, especially around whether ads inside developer tools can ever feel acceptable.
