🌐 Welcome to Crowdnet
Crowdnet is a decentralized AI network that bridges AI Suppliers (businesses with high-performance user devices) and AI Consumers (companies requiring large-scale AI-generated tokens). Through a lightweight iFrame integration and optional extensions, we enable distributed LLM inference while ensuring revenue sharing and sustainability benefits.
💰 For AI Suppliers
If you operate a platform with users having gaming-grade PCs or high-performance ARM devices (Apple Silicon on MacOS, modern Snapdragon for Windows on ARM, etc.), you can monetize this computing power:
Key Benefits:
- Earn $0.10 per million tokens generated
- Incentivize users with platform rewards
- Track participation through monitoring APIs
- 🌱 Support environmental initiatives
🔌 For AI Consumers
Access large-scale AI token generation at $0.30 per million tokens - significantly cheaper than traditional cloud solutions:
Key Benefits:
- OpenAI-compatible API structure
- Multiple open-source model options
- Sustainable, distributed computing
- Real-time environmental impact tracking
🔒 Security Considerations
Important notes for implementation:
- Computation occurs in untrusted environments
- Best suited for general-purpose AI tasks
- ⚠️ Not recommended for security-critical applications
- Average model download time: 1-2 minutes
- Requires stable user connections during generation
🌿 Environmental Impact
Our platform contributes to sustainable AI computing:
- Utilizes existing computing resources
- Reduces data center e-waste
- Funds environmental initiatives through Greenspark
- Provides real-time impact metrics
