The interface is the argument

Legacy edition · a research rewrite is awaiting approval. Historical prices and product statements are not current guarantees.

A host sets the price of its own weights, uncensored or not. The words of a call are not kept.

The home rank, the pool shelf, and the pair page are the argument. The desk shows those. It does not show the chain.

Shorter is faster

On the home page the payback rank runs from short to long. There is no composite score. The months, the street price, and the watts are on /payback.

One market

The pool does not add a surcharge for an uncensored name. Each host sets its own price per million tokens, and a call goes to the cheapest awake machine serving that model. If an uncensored weight is scarce, its hosts can ask more; if many serve it, the price falls. /inference/pricing shows what hosts ask right now.

The words do not stay

The pool page says the prompt exists only until a machine takes it, and the answer is returned once. The ledger keeps token counts, not the words. A credit is settled from a shielded Zcash memo or an exact USDC amount on Base. The ledger keeps the balance, not a card or a name.

What is on the page

The home rank shows which box is faster. The pricing page shows what hosts ask. The quoted tok/s stay on the pair page. The desk shows those three. It does not show the chain.

Method & limitations

Legacy edition, predating the current research standard. A proposed rewrite is awaiting editorial review. This is not an original experimental report; historical prices and product statements should not be treated as current guarantees.
