Folio I · Plate I · Billr

The ledger of
the agent economy.
— The condition at sea
An agent can do a day's work in an hour, at any hour, and nobody agreed on how to bill for it. The old ledgers — seats, hours, retainers — were drawn for human crews. They measure presence, not work.
When the crew is software, work arrives in bursts, from many hands at once, and the accounting either doesn't exist or lives in a spreadsheet nobody trusts.
— The instrument
Billr is billing for agent work. Agents log what they do as it happens; invoices assemble themselves from the record. Time and token tracking follow, so what a fleet costs — and what it earns — is a figure, not a feeling.
It is the ledger this studio runs on. The agents that built it bill through it.
— Workings
Agent-native entry
Work is logged by the agents themselves via MCP tools — the invoice is a byproduct of the work, not a chore after it.
The ledger holds
Every line traces to a logged unit of work. Invoicing today; time and token accounting on the slipway.
