How We Sustain.
No ads. No tracking. No data brokers. Oxiverse is funded by mechanisms that align with user privacy, not against it.
Our North Star
Every revenue mechanism must pass one test: Does this preserve user privacy and autonomy? If the answer is no, we don't build it.
Revenue Pillars
Sovereign Commerce
When users express purchase intent through search, we match them with relevant products from merchant-direct affiliate programs — no ad networks, no tracking pixels, no third-party cookies. The merchant pays a commission only when a sale occurs. Users stay anonymous; we never share PII.
- ✓ Merchant-direct relationships only
- ✓ No ad exchanges or RTB
- ✓ Zero user profiling
- ✓ Transparent commission model
Developer APIs
Programmatic access to IntentForge's intent extraction, search, and ranking capabilities. Usage-based pricing — pay for what you consume. No monthly minimums, no lock-in. Build privacy-first search into your own products.
- ✓ Per-request or volume pricing
- ✓ No data retention on our end
- ✓ OpenAPI specs, SDKs
- ✓ Self-serve dashboard
Commercial Licensing
Companies building proprietary products on Oxiverse tech can license under the Proprietary Commercial License (OCL v1.0 §3). Includes white-label rights, SLA, support, and custom integration. Revenue funds core R&D that benefits the entire ecosystem.
- ✓ Closed-source deployment rights
- ✓ White-label & redistribution
- ✓ SLA & priority support
- ✓ Custom feature development
✕What We Will Never Do
Display Advertising
No banner ads, native ads, video ads, or any impression-based monetization. Ever.
User Data Sales
No selling search history, click data, profiles, or inferred interests to third parties.
Behavioral Targeting
No cross-site tracking, fingerprinting, or building advertising profiles of any kind.
Surveillance Capitalism
No Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, or any third-party analytics that harvest user behavior.
Search Manipulation
No paid placement, sponsored results masquerading as organic, or ranking for profit.
Dark Patterns
No tricks to extract consent, no pre-checked boxes, no nag screens for monetization.
Venture Capture
No investor pressure to pivot to surveillance. Oxiverse is founder-controlled.
AI Training on User Data
No using queries or behavior to train models without explicit, revocable opt-in.
