We believe your waiting time has value.

Software development is 30% typing and 70% waiting. Waiting for builds, waiting for tests, waiting for deployments, and now—waiting for LLMs to generate tokens. We built LLMAD to reclaim that lost value.

The Evolution of Latency

Developers have always waited. But the nature of that waiting has changed. We've moved from long, infrequent breaks (compiling) to short, hyper-frequent interruptions (AI inference).

In 2024, these "micro-latencies" accumulate to approximately 2.5 hours per day per developer. This is fragmented attention that cannot be used for deep work, but is perfect for passive discovery of new tools.

The Economics of Syntax

Not all code is equal. Advertisers know this. A developer writing Rust systems code has a different purchasing power and tooling need than a junior web developer. LLMAD acts as a high-fidelity clearinghouse for this attention.

Privacy is our North Star

Monetization tools often come with a stigma of surveillance. We are developers first, and we reject that model. Our architecture is built on a simple premise: Local Analysis, Blind Requesting.

• We do not read your code logic.
• We do not send your file contents to the cloud.
• We only analyze package.json and high-level import statements locally on your machine.

When an ad is requested, we send a sanitized set of tags (e.g., ["react", "database", "cloud"]). The ad server returns a relevant creative. Your proprietary intellectual property never leaves your localhost.

Sustainable Open Source

The current model of funding open source—begging for donations—is broken. By introducing a clean, opt-in ad layer into the development workflow, we create a sustainable revenue loop.
