Your users hit paid walls inside AI workspaces. You never see it.

Credit limits, quota exhaustion, rate caps — the moments your expansion revenue is made of now fire inside Cursor, Claude, and ChatGPT, where your funnel has no instrumentation. We show you every one, and convert them.

01 — the ask

A paying customer, working where they work now.

02 — the work

A paying customer, deep in a real task.

inception session authenticated · subject bound
03 — the next ask

The backlog is one more message away.

04 — the wall

Credits run out mid-workflow — not on a pricing page.

inception wall recorded · at_gate × paid · trigger context attached
05 — the moment

The offer matches the job, not a generic upsell.

06 — the purchase

Completed on your Stripe — no card data touches us.

07 — the resume

The backlog runs. The upgrade never left the thread.

Today, the wall is a dead error.

A paying customer runs out of credits mid-workflow — not on a pricing page, not in your app. The tool call returns a quota error, the agent apologizes, and the user context-switches away. No upgrade modal renders. No signal reaches your team. A tool call that dies at the wall converts at zero.

  • The pricing page is never visited; the upgrade modal never renders.
  • The lifecycle email — if one exists — arrives after the intent has decayed.
  • Your dashboards report nothing, because the moment happened off-surface.
the dead end — what the blocked tool call looks like without a decision layer

With Inception Agents, the wall converts — and the task resumes.

The wall is recorded with full trigger context: what the user was doing, which capability they needed, which plan unlocks it. A plan comparison renders in the thread — matched to the job at hand, not a generic upsell. Checkout completes on your own Stripe, the entitlement refreshes, and the blocked call reruns in the same session. Attribution is deterministic: authenticated session, pseudonymous subject, Stripe customer.

  • The offer is framed by the blocked work — the backlog, not the brochure.
  • Task-resume rate is the number to watch: the upgrade proves itself by finishing the job.
  • Every wall, offer, and outcome lands in your dashboard as recoverable revenue.

the resolution — mirrors the thread above, illustrative values

The wall opens small — and grows only if they ask.

A paying user mid-task wants the block gone, not a pitch. The card resolves in one tap, and expands only when they want the numbers.

“What do I do?”

Out of credits, the top-up that finishes the run, the price on the button — resolution, not reading.

“Is this the right amount?”

What the run still needs, what rolls over — and when waiting for the monthly refill is the honest answer.

“Should we change plans instead?”

The full plan picture for the workspace that keeps hitting this wall — every plan, both intervals.

The only upsell your users will thank you for.

A usage wall is service recovery, not advertising: the user is blocked and wants a way forward. The trust rules that make that true are structural.

Only a real block offers.

Every offer requires a recorded blocking event the user just hit — enforced in the schema, tested in CI. An unprompted upsell is impossible by construction, and your Transactions view shows every offer with its trigger.

Walls-only by default.

The posture ladder ships conservative. Pre-gate forecasts and post-value guidance are opt-in tiers — a wall page like this one runs on the default posture, no configuration required.

Your users, your dials.

Frequency caps per user, per-subject cooldowns, quiet segments, and per-wall kill switches. A user who declines is not asked again on the next tool call.

Every wall you can't see is expansion revenue converting at zero.

Start in analytics posture and count your own moments — then convert them.
