Idledev - Building the ad layer for the AI coding era
Hey everyone 👋
I'm the maker of IdleDev.
Every time Claude Code pauses to think, you just sit there watching the cursor. That dead time happens hundreds of times a day. Why not make it earn?
IdleDev slots one opt-in, labeled ad into your Claude Code status line while you code. That's it. No popups, no browser, no interruption. Real businesses bid for the slot in a live auction, and 65% of the revenue goes to you, the developer.
A few things I cared about while building it:
Privacy first - we never read your code, files, or prompts. Nothing leaves your machine except an ad request.
Fully opt-in - one command to install, one to remove. You're always in control.
Honest - the ad is always clearly labeled. No disguising it as something it's not.

It's India-first for now, going global soon. Would genuinely love your honest take and support on Product Hunt 😄
