Qweb
Search that gives back to the web. Websites shouldn’t just get crawled, they should get paid.
Problem Statement
Qweb is pioneering a new era of sustainable web search by addressing a critical problem in the modern internet ecosystem: websites are not getting human traffic and hence no revenue from ads or human network effects. As we transition into an AI-dominated search landscape, Qweb provides a solution by paying websites for their content through instant, cheap crypto micropayments with x402.
Solution
Payment InfrastructureWallet System: Coinbase embedded wallets for seamless user authentication and onboardingServer Wallets: Individual server-side wallets created for each user to enable automated x402 payments as user queries in qweb Probably one of the coolest thing we discovered was the way we can create server wallets deterministically for every client embedded wallet configured for our coinbase project which saved us a lot of work around tracking payments and all.Payment Protocol: x402-qweb implementation for website micropaymentsCross-chain USDC: Circle's CCTP (Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol) SDK for multi-chain USDC supportProvider Portal: Dedicated platform for websites to monetize their contentNora: There smart contract ide was sick, literally one-shotted tests in our smart contract and we were able to directly integrate them.
