uwait: Get Paid While AI Thinks
uwait is a Chrome extension that shows curated ads during AI loading screens (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude). Users earn 50% of ad revenue, publishers whose content trained the AI get 30%, and the platform keeps 20%. No sign-ups or surveys required—just install and earn passively.

Every time you use ChatGPT or Claude, you wait. Usually 3 to 8 seconds. That's it. That's the idea. uwait is a Chrome extension that shows a curated ad during that loading screen. You get a small cut. The publishers whose content trained the AI get a cut too. The advertiser gets your attention at a moment when you're actually paying attention. The split: 50% to users, 30% to publishers, 20% to us. We're picky about advertisers. Just brands that make sense in that context.

Hey Product Hunt, Tristan here.
I built uwait because I got tired of staring at a loading screen every time I asked ChatGPT something.
That's it. That's the whole origin story.
Three seconds. Five seconds. Sometimes more. Multiplied by every query I do in a day, every day. At some point I thought, that's a lot of attention going nowhere. And attention is worth something.
So I built a Chrome extension that shows a small ad during that wait. You earn from it. Publishers whose content trained the AI you're using earn from it too. We take 20%.
No account to create. No surveys. No referral schemes. You install it, use AI like you normally would, and money accumulates in the background.
I've been running it myself for a few weeks now. It's not life-changing money. But it's real money, for time you were already spending doing nothing.
The extension is live at uwait.co. There are already a few advertisers running so you'll actually see ads from day one.
Curious what you think. Happy to answer anything below.
