Fastlane makes it straightforward to protect and monetize your content. In its most basic setup, you allowlist Fastlane's IP range. You will start receiving HTTP requests coming from that IP range.

When you receive such requests, it means that Toolhouse has already validated and agent, collected the access fee from it, and deposited funds to your account. You can simply respond with your HTML content, and you can optionally choose to serve it as plaintext or Markdown.

FAQ

Is Fastlane a firewall, reverse proxy, or similar solution?

No. Fastlane is an HTTP client that makes requests on behalf of AI agents that need to access your content. Fastlane requests will be clearly identified in your logs by a specific user agent and a fixed IP range.

Do I have to route all my traffic through Fastlane?

No. Toolhouse does not require changes to your network stack or infrastructure.

How do you ensure unauthorized traffic is protected?

You can protect your traffic by allowing the Fastlane IP range as defined in Basic setup. You can then block any other unrecognized traffic using your existing bot protection solutions.
