Pay creators per view on numbers you can defend.

Get live view counts with a timestamp on every answer. Hidden counts stay hidden, so you never pay on a made-up zero.

The platform hid @juno.reels’ count. The scraper reported 0. The creator got paid nothing and will be in your inbox by Monday.

Same clip. Openhandle says the count is hidden, so the run holds it for review. Nobody gets paid on a number that does not exist.

Hidden counts hold the clipWe tell you the count is hidden instead of inventing a zero. Your settlement holds that clip for review.
Every number has a time and a sourceEach answer says when it was read and whether it came live or from cache. Store it with the payout and the dispute is over.
Built for the payday burst10 requests per second per key, more on request, with failover paths underneath. One live read per clip.
Each metric is defined per platformThe metric semantics table says what counts as a view on each platform. Your payout terms can point at a definition.

How it works

How a settlement works.

  1. 01

    Track during the campaign

    Read every clip once a day from the 24-hour cache. Each cache hit costs $0.0005.

  2. 02

    Settle on one live read

    On payday, read each clip live. One request per clip, and the number the platform showed at that moment.

  3. 03

    Keep the receipt

    Store the capture time and the source with the payout. When a creator disputes a number, you show what the platform reported and when.

This is the number you pay on. Read live at that second, with the time and the source. Store it next to the payout and every number has a receipt.
