Why your Mac

The most underused AI hardware on earth.

Apple Silicon has unified memory, huge bandwidth, and real ML horsepower.
A 16GB Mac can serve models an 8GB graphics card can’t even load, and most of that capacity sits idle for hours every day.

100M+

Apple Silicon Macs shipped, a vast pool of capacity sitting mostly idle.

~18h

Average idle time per machine, every single day.

~electricity

Your marginal cost. The hardware is already paid for.

You keep it

Revenue from every request you serve goes to you, in USDC.

How you get paid

USDC for the work. Points for being early.

Two ways to earn, stacked on top of each other.

Paid per request

Earn in USDC

Every inference request your Mac serves pays real revenue, settled in USDC straight to your wallet. No volatile payout, no waiting on a token.

  • Priced per token served, the same rate developers pay.
  • Higher-value models and more uptime mean more earnings.
  • During the alpha, operators keep the full inference revenue.
Bonus on top

Earn Koretex Points

On top of USDC, you earn Koretex Points for committing capacity early and keeping it online. The earlier you join, the more your contribution is worth.

  • Earned for capacity served, uptime, and reliability.
  • Rewards early operators who help bootstrap the network.
