AI Content Access

Content Overview

Premium MTB trail guides and vanlife content from Scandinavia.

How It Works

When an AI crawler requests content, the server returns HTTP 402 Payment Required with payment instructions. After payment via Lightning Network, include the token in subsequent requests.

1. Request Content

# AI crawler requests a page
curl https://bikevan.de/posts/2023/norway-lofoten/

# Response: 402 Payment Required
{
  "status": 402,
  "message": "AI access requires payment",
  "payment": {
    "method": "Lightning Network",
    "endpoint": "https://bikevan.de/api/invoice"
  }
}

2. Generate Invoice

# Request a Lightning invoice
curl -X POST https://bikevan.de/api/invoice \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"plan": "perRequest"}'

# Response includes bolt11 invoice
{
  "invoice": {
    "bolt11": "lnbc10n1pn...",
    "paymentHash": "a1b2c3d4...",
    "expiresAt": "2026-02-..."
  }
}

3. Pay & Access

# After payment, use the paymentHash as token
curl https://bikevan.de/posts/2023/norway-lofoten/ \
  -H "Authorization: L402 a1b2c3d4..."
