Supertab

February 5, 2026 | By DCN

Supertab enables publishers, platforms, and AI-driven services to offer flexible, usage-based access that allows users and machines to unlock value first and pay later through aggregated microtransactions, timed passes, or subscriptions. Designed for a web increasingly consumed by AI, Supertab supports metered usage, rights-cleared access, and automated settlement, making small payments economically viable at scale. Supertab also provides managed support for Really Simple Licensing (RSL), enabling publishers and platforms to define, enforce, and monetize AI usage rights through a standardized, machine-readable framework. By handling RSL deployment, maintenance, and future monetization readiness, Supertab helps content owners move from passive AI consumption to rights-cleared, usage-based licensing without operational overhead. Built to integrate into existing publishing, platform, and AI infrastructure, Supertab provides a low-friction way to monetize both human and machine consumption in a sustainable digital economy.
