Outcome ledger / Pay only when shipped

Pay only when the shift ships.

Shiftledger is the first AI worker service priced like payroll. Pick a pre-trained worker — support, SDR, research, content, ops, or QA — sign a unit-priced outcome contract, and pay only for the cleared lines on a per-shift receipt.

No retainer. No tokens. No seats. The receipt is the contract.

Outcome pricing / All units USD

What you pay per cleared line.

Each worker has one unit price. You don’t pay for the worker’s thinking, the tokens, the runtime, or the failed attempts. You pay for cleared lines, voided lines refund automatically, and the receipt below is what your finance team files.

Voided lines do not draw against your pool. Refund of unused balance on cancellation, at the contracted unit rate, minus a 4% NOWPayments settlement fee. Full policy in docs/07-sales-strategy.md.

Trust block / How outcomes are verified

How a shift gets paid out.

No chain-of-thought theatre, no “agent transcripts” for proof. Every line on a Shiftledger receipt clears against a buyer-side rule. If the rule fails, the line voids on the receipt and never charges your pool.

  1. Step 01 of 03

    The worker runs the queue.

    Each profile reads your source of truth at run time — your help-desk, your CRM, your doc store — over its API. We do not fine-tune on your data and we do not store it model-side.

    Run / read at run time

  2. Step 02 of 03

    Each line is verified.

    Every attempted outcome runs against a buyer-side rule (e.g. CS = customer-set resolution status; SDR = personalized message + reply or non-bounce). If the rule fails, the line voids; you do not pay for it.

    Verify / buyer-side rule

  3. Step 03 of 03

    The receipt is issued.

    End of shift, the receipt lists cleared and voided lines. Cleared lines draw against your NOWPayments pool. Settlement is USDT or USDC; the invoice is USD-denominated. Unused pool refunds on cancellation.

    Receipt / pool draws down

What we will not do

  • — auto-retry voided lines without your approval (no infinite token-burn loops)
  • — charge for “the worker tried” or for any line you can’t audit
  • — fine-tune on your data; the runtime reads your source-of-truth at run time
  • — settle anything other than cleared lines against your NOWPayments pool

Tiers / Deposit-into-pool

Three ways to open a pool.

Every tier deposits into a pool. Cleared lines draw down the pool, voided lines do not. Settlement is NOWPayments USDT/USDC; invoices are USD-denominated.

FAQ / Plain-spoken answers

What buyers ask before opening a pool.

  1. Q01Is this an AI agent?

    It's an AI worker. The difference is what you're billed for: agents bill compute, hours, or seats; Shiftledger bills cleared lines.

    Buyers who have already burned a budget on per-token agents tell us this distinction is the whole point — they want a unit price they can defend internally.

  2. Q02What if a line fails verification?

    It voids on the receipt. You don't pay for it. Shiftledger does not auto-retry voided lines without your approval — the infinite-retry loop is one of the failure modes per-token billing rewards, and we don't replicate it.

    You see the void on the receipt with the failed rule attached, so an exception triage takes minutes, not days.

  3. Q03Can I cancel?

    Yes, any time. Unused balance in the pool refunds at the contracted unit rate, minus a 4% NOWPayments settlement fee. There is no minimum term and no auto-renew clause.

  4. Q04Why crypto checkout?

    NOWPayments issues a USD-denominated invoice; settlement is USDT or USDC. The receipt is the audit artifact, not the rail.

    Fiat invoicing (Stripe / FastSpring as merchant of record) ships in 2026 H2 once KYC and tax flows are complete. Until then, stablecoin or no contract — and we'll tell procurement upfront.

  5. Q05Do you fine-tune on our data?

    No. Each worker reads your source of truth at run time — your help-desk, your CRM, your doc store — over its API, and persists nothing model-side. There is no data gravity lock-in; switching to a competitor that supports the same outcome contract is a cancellation away.

    Architecture diagram is in /docs/02-architecture.md.

  6. Q06What about SOC 2 / HIPAA / EU residency?

    Wave 2 does not have those certifications. We will tell you so on the first call. The Enterprise track gets a written sub-processor list and a one-call security review against the data flow diagram in /docs/02-architecture.md.

    Formal certifications ship in 2026 H2.

  7. Q07Can my agency white-label receipts?

    Yes — Enterprise / partner program. The receipt PDF carries your agency logo instead of Shiftledger's, and we'll give you a partner unit rate to mark up.

    Reply to desk@ai-worker-as-a-service.prin7r.com with 'partner' and we'll send the agreement template.
