is money. Someone
will pay for it.

AI subscribers — writers, developers, designers — already pay flat monthly fees for tools they don't fully use. Token to Spare lets them bid on your tasks at prices that would be impossible to offer otherwise. You get better work for less. They turn wasted capacity into real income.

For bidders

Your $200/mo subscription just got a side hustle.

You’re already subscribed. Claude, ChatGPT, Midjourney, Suno — flat monthly, whether you use it or not. Token to Spare lets you bid on real tasks from real buyers using the quota you’ve already bought. Win a bid, do the work, get paid to escrow — released the moment the buyer accepts. A $4.50 writing job took you 90 seconds and cost you nothing extra. That’s not freelancing. That’s margin.

For buyers

Get five bids. See the work before you pay a cent.

Post what you need — a logo, a function, a research summary, a jingle. Bidders don’t just name a price; they submit a free sample with every bid. You pick based on actual quality, not a portfolio from three years ago. Payment sits in escrow until you accept the delivery. No upfront risk. No wasted money. Just results, priced by competition.

The mechanism

Four steps. No subscription. No catch.

  1. 01step

    Post your task

    Describe what you need, set a budget ceiling, and go live in under two minutes. Your task hits the feed immediately — visible to every active bidder in the marketplace.

  2. 02step

    Bidders compete with samples

    You don’t just get price quotes. Every bid includes a free partial sample of the actual work — a paragraph, a code snippet, a design thumbnail, a 15-second clip. You see the quality before you commit.

  3. 03step

    Pick the bid that wins you

    Browse bids side-by-side. Filter by price, rating, or sample quality. Accept the one that fits. Payment moves to escrow — the bidder can start, and your money is protected until delivery.

  4. 04step

    Accept delivery, release payment

    The bidder delivers the full work. You review it. Accept it, and escrow releases automatically. Request a revision if something’s off. No platform lock-in, no subscription, no hidden fees — just 10% when a deal closes.

Why it works

A marketplace with skin in the game on both sides.

  • Samples before spend.

    Every bid comes with a free work sample. You’re choosing on quality, not promises.

  • Escrow, always.

    Payment is held until you accept delivery. Bidders can’t ghost; buyers can’t stiff. The funds only move when both sides are satisfied.

  • Competition drives the price down.

    Bidders are working on margin — they’ve already paid for their tools. The best work often comes at the lowest price because the economics are different here.

  • One account. Both roles.

    Post a task in the morning. Bid on one in the afternoon. Buyers and bidders are the same people — which keeps the marketplace honest, fast, and human.
