About
OpenIncome is a protocol that routes a percentage of AI API usage fees into a shared pool, distributing monthly cash payments equally to every verified human participant. Companies and institutions pay a solidarity tax on their AI consumption or make direct donations, while individual recipients receive an unconditional cash share. The system uses KYC verification and blockchain-based transaction records to ensure transparency and fraud resistance.
Problem
As AI and robotics absorb more productive economic activity, the resulting value concentrates rather than being distributed broadly to people displaced or underserved by automation.
For
Both companies consuming AI APIs and individual humans seeking supplemental income
How it works
A proxy layer sits in front of 100+ frontier LLMs and applies a ~20% solidarity tax on company credit purchases and a 5% fee on human withdrawals, pooling those funds for equal monthly cash distributions to all verified human members.
