How a phone could do useful AI work.
Five connected ideas. Scroll through them, then open any one to try it.

Everyday hardware
Phones, tablets and later Android TV boxes that already sit plugged in could contribute. Each device works alone on a complete small task; the network never pools memory or splits a big model across devices.

Small, suitable tasks
The first workload is batch text embeddings for approved, non-sensitive English text: up to 64 records per task, 256 tokens per record, a 384-number vector out.

You stay in control
Sessions are started on purpose and stay visible. External power, unmetered network, battery and heat limits apply. Stop works at any time and is never penalised.
Try the session controls - 04
Every result is checked
In the first paid design a trusted verifier recomputes every output and compares it within published tolerances. Hashes and blockchains record results; they do not prove correctness.
Inspect a receipt - 05
Paid for accepted work
Customers fund orders. Only accepted records are charged: 75% goes to contributors, 25% to the service pool. Idle time, uptime or holding a token earns nothing.
