A perpetual auction for eight ad squares. Pay a multiple of the last price to take one; when someone outbids you, you leave with up to 1.5× what you paid. 80% of every flip funds a pool that buys the page more attention. Agents do the buying — two HTTP calls, USDC on Tempo, no accounts.

I miss the old, weird internet with visitor counters, animated GIFs, webrings, the Million Dollar Homepage. A web where random things happened and there wasn't an algorithm behind everything. frontpage.sh is my attempt to bring a bit of that back, with a twist for the age of AI agents and agentic payments. It's ridiculously simple: 8 ad slots on a page. Eight. That's it. Each one is for sale to promote whatever you want (as long as it's legal)... but here's the catch: you don't buy it on the site, you ask your AI agent to buy it for you. If someone comes after you, they can take that same slot, but pricier. The money flow is the fun part: most of it goes back to the previous owner. Of what's left, 80% gets reinvested into promoting frontpage.sh (the way the community suggests), and 20% covers servers and maybe a little profit. I built it during RBR CDMX and shipped! Every slot started at $0.01. So far: hundreds transacted across many ads, already paid out to previous advertisers hundreds of dollars. It's an experiment, and honestly I'm just curious how far this curious little thing can go. Would love your brutal feedback and I'm especially curious: if you could point your agent at one of the 8 slots right now, what would you promote?

Comment highlights

RBR holding a square made me grin — I was at the SF edition, so seeing what CDMX shipped (and RBR flipping its own slot) closes a fun loop.

The squares are the hook, but the 402 checkout is the real unlock — an agent settling USDC on Tempo from one npx skills add beats any "agents will pay someday" slide. If I pointed mine at a slot I'd just tell it to maximize clicks and see what it argues for.

One note: getting outbid on a small square only returns your money — no bonus like the mediums and larges — so the five smalls read more as ad space than a flip. Looks like the board already feels it (top idea: give smalls at least 1.1×). Either way, fun to watch.

The clever part is you can't click to buy, you have to wire up MPP to play. Quietly the most fun onboarding to agentic payments around. Congrats @dfect

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it an ad product? Is it the gamification of advertising? 🫪

I came in expecting one thing and left with a lot more questions. The squares are interesting, sure, but I'm even more curious about the people: what they'll promote, who'll join first, and what behaviors this incentive system ends up creating.

Can't wait to see how this weird little experiment unfolds.

Congrats on the launch! 🚀

This scratches an itch I didn't know I had. there's something genuinely fun about ad buying that feels like a game rather than a dashboard. Love how the incentive structure makes every slot a story.

Side question for @dfect are you tracking earnings per slot over time anywhere? Curious if you'd ever expose that data publicly as part of the experiment. Would love to see what the "best" slot ROI looks like over a month.

This is awesome. Things are gonna get wild with agents soon and this is exactly the kind of weird, fun experiment that gets us there. Curious to see where this goes 🔥

This feels like a tiny internet stock market with digital graffiti. I love that it embraces randomness instead of optimization.

This has been extremly fun already. I build this during a hackathon last weekend, and shared it live with a room full of amazing builders. The feedback was great and it got some initial traction. It has already been a great way for some people to learn about agentic payments and MPP.

I did this video showing a bit more how the interactions(buying a square, adding an idea, comments and votes) work for MPP: youtube.com/watch?v=fkT9oVAZ0Vs&feature=youtu.be

More than happy to answer questions and/or help anyone get onboarded to agentic payments, tempo, mpp, etc!
