Why Gaia Changes Agency Research Economics Before You Resell It
Gaia prices a sourced research report at $0.25 USDC and a short answer at $0.02 USDC on Base, which is a rounding error against the analyst hours an agency normally bills for the same deliverable.

Why does it matter for agencies?
Leverage
34/100Risk
71/100Gaia prices a sourced research report at $0.25 USDC and a short answer at $0.02 USDC on Base, which is a rounding error against the analyst hours an agency normally bills for the same deliverable. The catch is that the buyer must hold USDC on Base and manage a wallet, so the leverage lands on internal delivery margin first and client-facing resale second. Agencies that treat Gaia as a research-acceleration layer, not a white-label product, capture the spread without inheriting the crypto friction.
